Hello Marie-Noelle,

If it was MY book I would know where the photo was located by looking at  
it. I start cataloguing my photos when they come off the camera. I want to  
avoid having to frustrate myself trying to locate an image, especially if  
it is one I am using. Prepare your images and your text before it gets  
into Scribus. In the long run it saves time.

Could look something like this:

> My-Book>Chapter1>chapter1-images/
                  >chapter1-text/
                  >chapter2-images/

If the image is important, make a copy, catalogue it in the same manner as  
you catalogue the original. If I end up spending time trying to find the  
location of an image I am using I have taken the flow out of workflow and  
only the work is left.
