[OPEN-ILS-DOCUMENTATION] Help on Documentation

Hi Yamil,

I checkout a branch and applied the patch, the way you have explained.

I tested the patch with asciidoc, which generates an .html file with
embedded images.
Command: asciidoc -a data-uri -a icons MARC_RAD_MVF_CRA.txt

For this I changed the way the images are called upon within the table from
"image::media/blu-ray.png[]" to "image:../media/blu-ray.png[]"

This renders all the images, other than the icon for 'Equipment, games,
toys'. In place of the icon, it gives part of the encoding for the .png
image. The reason for this might be, the image is corrupted.
