What is meaning of "Embed"?

Answer 1

.
Embedding is different from attaching.
To embed an object is to put it into the area where the text goes, and it will be visible amongst the text.
You can set the text to go "around" the embedded object.

To create a new embedded object

Click in the document where you want to place the embedded object.
On the Insert menu, click Object, and then click the Create New tab.
In the Object type box, click the type of object you want to create.
>>Only programs that are installed on your computer and that support linked objects and embedded objects appear in the Object type box.

To display the embedded object as an icon — for example, if others are going to view the document online — select the Display as icon check box.
Note
You can also insert a Microsoft Excel worksheet as an embedded object by clicking Insert Microsoft Excel Worksheet on the Standard toolbar.

Answer 2

Something that is "Embeded" is built into another files. For example, you can sent a picture in our e-mail as an attachment, where it is a separate file that you have to download. Or you can "embed" the picture so that it shows up when you view the e-mail. It is not a separate file.

Answer 3

For example: Instead you send a picture as attachment, you can send the picture as embed...

However: attachment requirs the receiver to download the attachment in order to view the picture.

Embed displays the picture in the Email without requiring the receiver to download...
