Hmmm, ok renaming one of the fleuron to be the master. Then search img(\d+)\.jpg, and cycle through them. First match. No indication available, so replace and watch the preview pane. Oops, that wasnt a fleuron. So click into codeview and hit cmd-z. Click on Find again. Click on Replace. Damn. Again a Non-fleuron. Click into code view (as search window has the focus and CMD-z is not doing an undo if the focus is not helkd by the code view window.

And so on and so on. If you have 200 pictures, and 70 of them are the same fleuron stored multipls times, this is a boring, error-prone manual work. If this happens once ore twice, i wouldnt have thought about another solution. And i'm not the only one having this cases.

And I find it highly interesting how other people deal with Sigil. For example, I would never have thought of deleting the images in the report and sorting them out by renaming them.
