Eliminating "Stored Image" from Illustrator image

I created an .eps using Illustrator and I had to import an icon into the image. For some reason when I pull the image through FlightCheck it flags the image as "Stored" data and doesn't pass. How would I get this to stop?

Not sure...

I'm not sure what they mean by "stored" data. I assume it means an embedded image. Does FlightCheck give you any further information as to why it's flagging the image? In years past, embedded images didn't work well with some RIPs - so maybe that's why it's flagging it.

If that is the case, try LINKING the image in your Illustrator file, rather than embedding it. You can check it in the Layers panel.
