An image can be stored in a package as a ZIP item. Image ZIP items shall be identified by an image part relationship and the appropriate content type.

A package is permitted to contain zero or more Image parts, and each such part shall be the target of an explicit relationship from a Comments (§11.3.2), Endnotes (§11.3.4), Footer (§11.3.6), Footnotes (§11.3.7), Header (§11.3.9), or Main Document (§11.3.10) part in a WordprocessingML package; a VML Drawing (§15.2.17) part in a SpreadsheetML package; or a Handout Master (§13.3.3), Notes Slide (§13.3.5), Notes Master (§13.3.4), Slide (§13.3.8), Slide Layout (§13.3.9), Slide Master (§13.3.10), or a VML Drawing (§15.2.17) part in a PresentationML package.

example:
<Relationships xmlns="…">
  <Relationship Id="rId8" 
    Type="http://…/image" Target="../media/image1.jpeg"/>
</Relationships>

An Image part may be located within or external to the package containing the source relationship (expressed syntactically, the @TargetMode attribute of the <Relationship> element may be Internal or External).

An Image part shall not have implicit or explicit relationships to other parts defined by this Standard.
