It's possible to get a report of all images contained in the FM document so we can have the list of images so I bring all the images in the new file? In this way I could avoid bringing each individual image into the new image file.

Thank you in advance for your help!

In addition to Barb's suggestion, see if either of these standard features are what your want.
With the .book file open in FM:
• File » Package
• Insert » List Of » Figures…

There are various scripting solutions if you need something else.

Hi @Maria24580476e9ki:

This is a different question than the one on the thread where you originally posted, so I have moved your question to a new thread.

Yes, you can generate a list of images in a FrameMaker document. It is very similar to generating a table of contents, list of tables or a list of figures. You can do this either for a single chapter or for the entire book, just like you can for those generated files.

Use Insert > List of > References > Imported Graphics. This produces a generated file with a list of images and their pathnames.

@Barb Binder I just followed your suggestion (thinking it would be good to see if there are any graphics sitting in our source folder that aren't in use anymore). Not only does it show the full path and image name, it also shows the DPI, which is very useful (for us, at least). Great Tip!
