If you plan to share the document between computers or with other users, click

Advanced Options.

 Make sure the “Copy audio and movies into document” checkbox is checked if your

document contains movie or audio files.

If you don’t select this checkbox, then any audio or video files that you have

included in your document will not be carried along with it if you transfer your

document to another computer or send it to someone else. Documents that contain

media may have large file sizes.

 Select the “Copy template images into document” checkbox to keep image files that

were part of the document’s original template with your document if you transfer it

to another computer or send it to someone else.
