hello 

probably basic stuff but i dont find an answer 

when using file > place, is it possible to specify that I want the files to be embedded directly (instead of linked files) ? 

i'd like to skip going to the links panel select the images > burger menu > embed images 
Cause I also tend to forget to do that sometimes ^^" 

I'm open to any solutions, scripts, actions, or else 

Thx

    In the Place dialog, select Options and uncheck Link.

    This will stay like that until you check it again.

        function placeItems() {
    var selectFile = File.openDialog("Choose File", (Multiselect = true));
    for (var i = 0; i < selectFile.length; i++) {
      var placeTo = app.activeDocument.placedItems.add();
      placeTo.file = selectFile[i];
      placeTo.embed();
    }
  }
placeItems();
