When I export Markdown, the image reference is placed like `[image-1][base64-reference]`. However, the reference links should be `[image-1](base64-reference)`. The brackets for the reference should be parentheses, not square.

Any hint on why you have used square brackets?

Link _references_ must be enclosed in brackets. Only _inline_ link URLs use parentheses

Thank you for your reply and sorry for my ignorance. I didn't look much about reference links before writing this.
