Hi,

Is it possible for you to post a file that exhibits this problem? I would like to try to write a macro that would walk the document tree and deactivate all the images.

I think I now understand the essence of your suggestion: one might have two directories with the same name, one with low- and one with high-quality pictures. Figures in Texmacs linked to pictures in directory with this name in the same directory where the document is one works on.  For editing text, place the low quality directory there, for printing the high-quality one.

If this works and does not confuse Texmacs, then it is certainly more elegant than to work on a low-quality version of a document and synchronize a high-quality version with it, as we have tediously done in the past.

I will try the suggestion in the coming days.

Lets nevertheless hope that the Texmacs luminaries have a suggestion on the problem. They must have been confronted with it many times before.

Many kind thanks,

Werner Hug

Thanks.

We tried earlier to just link higher quality spectra, of course, but when
opening the document Texmacs opens these pictures irrespective, as if they
would have been included in the document. If the figures are stored away in
order to prevent this, Texmacs shows a short appearances and then closes,
not unlogically.

Possibly there is an option to get the text opened for editing and have the
figures linked without them being displayed, what is what you seem to
suggest, but we have not found it. Please let us know if such an option
exists.

 

No, I suggested to have the downscaled pictures with the same names as
the full scaled pictures, in two additional directories, and then copy
the required pictures to the directory with the tm documents, and link
to the pictures to the tm documents directory, and when a change in
resolution is required, overwrite with the other resolution pictures.

I haven't actually tried this, so I don't know how smoothly this would work.

It would still be nice if perhaps some more knowledgeable person answers...

Good luck!
