Adding pre-optimized images


    You can add pre-optimized images in the GIF, JPEG, PNG, and WBMP formats. When you add a pre-optimized image to a page, GoLive references the pathname to the image file. To ensure that GoLive can properly manage these references and publish image files, place image files in the site window before adding them to a page. Many Web designers store all images in an images folder in the site window. That approach lets you manage numerous image files more easily.

    TipSmart Objects offer more flexibility than pre-optimized images. For example, GoLive automatically reoptimizes Smart Objects if you resize them in the Layout Editor. For more information, see Working with Smart Objects.

To insert a pre-optimized image:

  1. Do one of the following:
    • Drag the image file from the site window into the Layout Editor.
    • Drag the Image icon Image icon from the Basic set Basic set icon in the Objects palette into the document window, or double-click the icon in the palette. In the Image Inspector, specify an image file in the Source text box.
