Does copying and pasting a picture from the Internet into Word waste that website's bandwidth?

Question

Not a techie here. :) I know hotlinking does, but does this?

Answer 1

After you go to the website, any pictures download to the Temporary Internet Files folder for your user profile. When you copy and paste, you are copying from the folder and not from the website.

Answer 2

No, it copies the file and associated html of the source to that file, including attributes. The only bandwidth utilized is the connection you made to the website to retrieve the file. However, if you paste the link to the file instead of the actual file, then, provided there's a network connection, you would be pulling the picture from the source instead of displaying a local copy. My suggestion (with the right permission from the owner) is to save a local copy and insert it into your Word doc.

Answer 3

nope
their bandwidth is already wasted wen u view that image. This is because every image that u view on the internet has to be downloaded to ur computer first and when u view a fully loaded website, this means that u have downloaded all the images from that website to ur computer.
In other words, every time u view that image, ur wasting their bandwidth.

Hope that helps

Answer 4

you may't reproduction and paste pictures. you need to good click on the image, positioned it aside as a record. Then import it with the help of the purposes in note, then you extremely are waiting to resize and bypass it round.

Answer 5

Is that picture showing up in your web-browser? If you see the picture, you already downloaded it. You won't download the picture again if you just copy that picture.

So no, you won't waste bandwidth.
