Default How do I compress images?

I've finished my spreadsheet. It's 7.5 megabytes in size because of
picture files contained within it. I tried to email it, and though
it doesn't exceed the 10 megabyte size limit apparently set by my
ISP, when I try to email it, I get an error saying it exceeds that
allowed 10MB size. Interesting.

Anyway, i'm going to have to figure out how to compress these files,
from within the spreadsheet I hope, and hopefully without losing too
much image quality. Can you give me some help here about how to do
these things please?

Thanks,
Cornpone

Hi,

First of all, make sure your picture files are not BMP files, since
they are not compressed. If they are BMPs, then convert them to JPG and
see if the spreadsheet's size changed. If the picture files are already
JPGs (or other compressed formats) then i really don't know.
One other thing...in Windows size matters ;) check the spreadsheet
properties, it's size and it's size on disk.

I hope it's of any help,

Cheers.
