Hi
Previously, images were embedded by default, but recently I have had an issue where images are not being embedded in files. I have several files that are ongoing and I add to /alter frequently.
Is there an option to always embed by default in new files? Also, is there a way to go back to existing files and set it to embed automatically?
I have Illustrator 2020 on Windows 10.

It is a switch, when you place a file and uncheck the Link option when selecting a file, it will remember that for future files when placed.

where do you go to change this? Apparently I have sent it some number of years ago and would like to change it.

ONult,
Just as Ton said: select the file to place, then check or uncheck the Link checkbox as desired.

And on a Mac you need to have clicked the Options option to see that option.

A complete answer rhyme, Ton.

And if you want to embed linked images in existing files, you can select them all in the Links panel and choose Embed.
