optional, multiple

id=unique identifier of this picture

height=height of picture in pixels — optional

width=width of picture in pixels — optional

format=type of picture (GIF, JPG, PNG, TIF etc.) — optional

Inside <image> data concerning a picture — whatever type of — is put into brackets. How the image data are displayed is in the responsibility of the application program, also whether the software is able to display the image data, anyhow. To assist the application program the height, the width, and the format of the image to be displayed can be given as attributes. The statement can be repeated any times.

Always the attribute id="..." must be given, of course!
