Obsidian to Marked - Including locally stored pictures
There is something that is vexing me that I’m hoping you would know
When I cut and paste an Image (say a screenshot) Obsidian drops the file into a folder one directory down from my note
And renders a preview.
Obsidian uses it’s internal link
obsidian://open?vault=MAGI&file=Zettelkasten%2Fattachments%2FPasted%20image%2020231006114856.png
iA Writer sees it as this
when I open the file in Marked 2
it just shows
![[LocallyStoredPic.jpg]]
I've tried using local links both full and in folder. I’m buggered if I can get the images stored locally on my hard drive (in the obsidian vault to show).
There has to be a few Obsidian marked 2 users so I’m wondering if there is an easy solution for this? Or am I making a really dumb error.
Thanks Heaps

Just out of curiosity, are you using the MAS version of Marked? If you can't even get images to show when using local paths and standard Markdown formatting, it might be a sandboxing issue.
Also, are you opening the original Markdown file in Marked, or using the Streaming Preview somehow?

Hey Brett
I am using the App Store version - I’ll grab a copy direct from your site.
That could well be it.

You can use Help->Crossgrade in the MAS version to get a free license for the Paddle version.

From another user:
I’m guessing that Marked doesn’t grok the “wikilinks” style of linking which may be the default in obsidian, but can be changed, and probably should be for Obsidian users wanting maximum markdown interoperability.
With the [[wikilinks]] notation, Obsidian appears to search for the link target using both a path relative to the document, and a path relative to the vault. Vault relative links will obviously be harder for third party apps unaware of the vault root to sensibly follow.
I wonder if there is a way in Obsidian to convert all [[wikilinks]] in a vault to markdown links…I should probably do that.
