Example files

When you export a document that contains images to a HTML file it embeds the
images into the html. That is, it embeds the binary data.

I believe that images should instead be saved in a folder with the same name of
the document and instead be link to those files. Embedding the images into the
html file is a bad idea for two reasons:

* It results in the browser having to load a much larger file
* It actually results in an overall larger file. In the attachments. In the
attachment the 4x4px gif (39 bytes), when embedded, results in an html file
that is 86 bytes. When the image is instead link the combine file size of the
html file and gif is 61 bytes. 25 bytes is wasted, which will only grow larger
as the images used get larger
