Hi Jacque,

>What's the difference between the text of an image and its imageData?

The imageData is the image as it is currently displayed; the image 
text is the actual image as imported or referenced.  The imageData 
changes when the image is resized; the image text does not.

This means one loses image detail when referencing imageData of an 
image that is not displayed full-size.
