OpenXml SDK - Image Reuse

I am creating a Word document based on a template. The template contains a image in the header section which I would like to re-use elsewhere in the document.

The image is stored in the package -> word/media/myImage.jpeg so I need to somehow add a relationship to my each section that I wish to display the image again. I have attempted this successfuly manually, the question is how using the sdk 2.0.

Using the AddImagePart() method is useless as this just adds the image again which is silly as I only need one copy rather than several duplicates stored in the package.

Anyone shed some light?

Best way is to open up the document in DocumentReflector.exe and have a look on the code generated

Eric has some blog posts about that http://blogs.msdn.com/ericwhite/

My experience with the SDK 2.0 is primarily in SpreadsheetML, but assuming the same principles are used in WordprocessingML, you need to create a relationship to the existing ImagePart, by obtaining its ID (using the GetIdOfPart() method) and then calling the CreateRelationshipToPart() method on the part that will hold the secondary reference to it.
