Clipping mask: permanently remove the unnecessary part

Question

Hello,  In Illustrator CS4, I've cropped JPEG images (using the clipping mask). The problem is that the rest of the image, which I don't want, still remains in the file (albeit hidden, but it takes up a lot of space). How can I remove this unnecessary part?  I've already read posts on this topic but I didn't understand the proposed solutions...  Thank you in advance   Configuration: Windows / Firefox 68.0

Personally, I don't think it's possible...  An image will always remain whole under a clipping mask or a document format resizing... unlike objects which will be cut off..  But you can do it externally in Illustrator before importing the image.

Hello you need to:  1) vectorize the image  2) create the clipping  3) use pathfinder  or use Photoshop  -- See you+
