D.1.9 The object and image Elements

object
   :commandName?
   :type[object_type]=(unknown)?
   :uri
=> EMPTY

image
   :commandName?
   :VDPId
=> dataPath

These two elements represent an image in PNG format. They are equivalent and the corpus contains examples of both. The only difference is the syntax: for object, the uri attribute names the Zip member that contains a PNG file; for image, the text of the inner dataPath element names the Zip member.

PSPP writes object in output but there is no strong reason to choose this form.

The corpus only contains PNG image files.
