# luaimageembed
LuaTeX package to embed images directly as base64-encoded strings into the document. This can be useful, e.g. to package a document with images into a single TeX file, or with automatically generated graphics.
The image files will be decoded, written to a temporary directory, and cleaned up afterwards.
Use at your own risk.
## Commands
Three commands are wrapped to allow for use with base64-encoded images:
- `\includegraphicsembedded` (`\includegraphics`)
- `\pgfdeclareimageembedded` (`\pgfdeclareimage`)
- `\pgfimageembedded` (`\pgfimage`)
Each takes the base64-encoded image data instead of the filename; see the example below. Supported are `png`, `jpg`, `jb2` and `pdf` images.
## Example
```latex
\documentclass{scrartcl}
\usepackage{luaimageembed}
\usepackage{graphicx}
\begin{document}
\includegraphicsembedded[width=4cm]{%

\end{document}
```
