However, there are some subtle differences between linking and embedding that you should be aware of.<\/p>\n<p>The difference between linking and embedding an object is how the object\u2019s data is stored and how the content within the object is updated. Since the data is stored differently between the two methods, the process of updating the content will also be different when that time comes.<\/p>\n<p><strong>RELATED:<\/strong> <strong><em>How to Link or Embed an Excel Worksheet in a Word Document<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>If you link an object, then that link simply sends the reader to the location of the source object when clicked. The file itself doesn\u2019t actually store any data from the linked object to the file. This is advantageous if the object you\u2019re linking to is large in size and you need to reduce the file size of your Word document. The downside is that if the location of the linked object changes, the link in your Word document will break.<\/p>\n<p>If you embed an object, then you don\u2019t need to worry about whether the location of the object changes, as it becomes part of the document itself. That is, Word stores the object data in the actual Word file. The good <a href=\"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/category\/news\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"2\" title=\"News\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">news<\/a> is that you don\u2019t have to worry about broken links in your document. The downside is that when the object is updated, those updates aren\u2019t reflected in your embedded object because there\u2019s no link connecting it to the source. Also, you\u2019ll need to consider that the file size increases with embedded objects.<\/p>\n<h2 role=\"heading\" aria-level=\"2\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Link_or_Embed_a_PowerPoint_Slide_in_a_Word_Document\"><\/span>Link or Embed a PowerPoint Slide in a Word Document<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>The difference between being able to link or embed a Microsoft PowerPoint slide in a Microsoft Word document is only one click.<\/p>\n<p>First, open the PowerPoint presentation that contains the slide you want to link or embed.
