As it is written, there is a middle way: You can develop and edit the
document with linked ("referenced") graphics. When the time comes to
send your document out into the big world:

1. CTRL+A (select all)
2. CTRL+SHIFT+F9 (convert all linked graphics to embedded)
3. Save with a new file name (to keep your linked version for future
updates)
