The important thing is that this means that you have actually added something more than just the image to the word file and if you transfer the file to Mac, the image will not be displayed as the 'linked' app doesn't exist. Try double clicking the images in Windows and seeing if they are linked. If so, that is your problem. Note that this applies to inserting an image into the text, not importing images into the Scrivener project as files. These options work in both Mac and Windows. Copy the image from somewhere and paste it into the text.

I’ve been getting a lot of questions about using images in Scrivener lately, especially from those interested in producing e-books. There are several ways to handle images in Scrivener, and I’ll provide a run down of the basics here. Note that this applies to inserting an image into the text, not importing images into the Scrivener project as files. These options work in both Mac and Windows. • Copy the image from somewhere and paste it into the text. • Go to Edit—>Insert—>Image From File • Import the image into the Binder (anywhere outside the Manuscript/Draft folder) and drag it into the desired document. • Go to Edit—>Insert—>Image Linked to File The last option is closest to using an image tag with an external file (Mac only for now, discussed below) because it doesn't insert the actual image into your project (thus keeping your project file size down).

Instead, it shows a placeholder image (a cached version of the original) that is linked to the image file. When you compile, the linked file will be inserted into the compiled output. This is handy if you don't yet have print quality versions of artwork, but want to include a placeholder in your text. Just save the print-ready image to the same name/location as the original linked file and Scrivener will use your quality images.

Images in Scrivener are added inline, so they’re treated like a character as far as word-wrapping goes. Which means that text does not wrap around the image. To resize an image, right-click and choose Edit Image (Windows) or Scale Image (Mac). NOTE: To avoid image display problems when compiling to EPUB or MOBI, make sure your image name doesn't contain special characters (e.g. Working with Image Tags (Mac only, for now) Inserting an Image into the Text If you have quite a few images you want to use within your manuscript, there’s no need to insert them into the text directly. Instead, you can use the IMG tag to refer to the desired image in the Binder or on a drive you have access to. Also, because image tags are text based, they give you additional capabilities: the flexibility to insert images into places where they can't normally go, and the ability to search for images by image name or the image tag.

Here's how to insert an image with an image tag. Import the desired image into your project (or see NOTE below for using external image files).

An easy way to import is to right-click (or control+click) the folder where you want to store the image (must be outside of the Manuscript/Draft folder) and choose Add—>Existing Files. Then choose the desired image file. Select the desired document, and click within the editor in the exact location where you’d like to insert the image. Type (where ImageName is the name of the image as it appears in the Binder). TIP: To designate the size of the image, you can enter either its height or width and the image will adjust the other measurement accordingly. You can also enter both dimensions, if desired.

Do so in the following manner: to assign a width of 100 pixels to assign a height of 80 pixels to assign both measurements 4.

I suggest adding a blank line above and below the image for spacing. The image will appear in the text with the same indents and format as the text.

To give it different formatting, such as centering or full left alignment, adjust the format, select the image, then go to Format—>Formatting—>Preserve Formatting. The image will have a blue tint and a dashed line around it. This will prevent the standard compile settings from being applied to the image. NOTE: If you have a lot of images to include and don't want to bloat your project, you can also use the image tag to reference files that are not imported to your project. You just need to know the file path. For example, the following IMG tag points to a file on my hard drive and resizes it to 100 pixels in height.
