Images cannot be imported into your custom document.

Why This Error Occurred​

An attempt to import an image file into pages/_document.js was made.

Custom documents aren't compiled for the browser and images statically imported like this will not be displayed.

Possible Ways to Fix It​

If your image needs to be displayed on every page you can relocate it to your pages/_app.js file.

Example​

import yourImage from 'path/to/your/image'
import Image from 'next/image'

function MyApp({ Component, pageProps }) {
  return (
    <>
      <Image src={yourImage} alt="your_image_description" />
      <Component {...pageProps} />
    </>
  )
}

export default MyApp

If your application is not using image imports with next/image, you can disable the built-in loader with the following next.config.js:

module.exports = {
  images: {
    disableStaticImages: true,
  },
}
