right-click the image, I DO NOT get that option.

more evidence that they were created/embedded differently.

They're probably drawings, not pixel-based images. Unless there's some way to mark an embedded drawing, it's pretty hard to distinguish a vector image from any other part of the document since it's all Postscript.

I would not be surprised if the images that are not accessible are from Visio, and those that are were jpgs or gifs that one of the contributors provided that the editor did not bother to convert to Visio.

At least with Okular, I can select a block and make an image to paste into a presentation. So I will just stay with that method.

An interesting look into pdfs.
