The background image file should reside in the folder where the HTML document
is stored. If it resides somewhere else, you should place a copy in this
folder.
You will find detailed information about inserting graphics in section “Pictures
in HTML documents” beginning on page 443.
Pictures in HTML documents
To insert a picture into an HTML document, you can use the command Object >
New Picture as described in the chapter “Pictures” beginning on page 211. However,
you should take note of the following points:
The picture should reside in the same folder as the document
As a rule, the picture file should reside in the folder where the document is
saved.
So, either copy the picture to that folder manually before adding it to the
document, or simply check the Copy to document’s folder option in the Object
> New Picture dialog and allow TextMaker to do this for you.
The picture should not be saved in the document
Beyond that, you should not use the Save within document option, because
picture files cannot be saved within HTML documents.
Besides, it is not possible to insert picture frames in HTML format.
Which picture file format?
On the web, the most widespread picture file formats are GIF, JPG and PNG. All
of these formats save the picture information in compressed form and thereby
reduce picture file sizes considerably.
The GIF format is most appropriate for smaller graphics with a maximum of
256 colors. It uses a lossless compression method that does not impair image
quality.
The JPG format is most appropriate for photographs and other images in true
color. However, the compression method used here is not lossless – the higher
the chosen compression ratio, the worse the image quality.
