tmp -- kitchin.org `- images -- foo.png kitchin.org looks like this: --8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8--- #+STARTUP: inlineimages * foo This [[file:images/foo.png]] is an inline image. --8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8--- and I zipped like this: $ zip kitchin.zip kitchin.org images I can then open the zip file, and open kitchin.org inside the zip file with the inline image showing. -- Nick
