Whenever I embed or link a picture and select "publish to the web" Publisher
creates copies of these files with non-descriptive names instead of using the
original files. E.g. "image4741.gif"
The website generated by Publisher is pretty static but the embedded bitmaps
have to be automatically changed every hour or so.
I therefore would like to "hardcode" these filenames so they don't change
whenever the Publisher project changes and to make them more descriptive.
Is there any way to accomplish this?
