Placing files into Dreamweaver from Bridge

You can insert files into Dreamweaver pages by inserting them or by dragging them from Bridge into your page. The Dreamweaver document in which you want to insert the file must be open and in Design view to use this feature.

You can insert most file types into your pages, but Dreamweaver handles them differently:

  • If you insert a web‑ready image (JPEG, GIF, or PNG), Dreamweaver inserts the image files directly into your page and places a copy in your website’s default images folder.

  • If you insert a Photoshop PSD file, you need to define its optimization settings before Dreamweaver can place it in your page.

  • If you insert a non-image file, such as mp3, PDF, or a file with an unknown file type, Dreamweaver inserts a link to the source file.

  • If you insert an HTML file, Dreamweaver inserts a link to the source file.

  • (Windows only) If you have Microsoft Office installed and you are inserting a Microsoft Word or Excel file, you must specify if you want to insert the file itself or insert a link to the source file. If you want to insert the file, you can specify how much of the file’s formatting you want to keep.
