If you truly didn't imort it, but copied it to the folder location inside a
local web, the file would not be recognized by the FrontPage server
extensions. They would not know it was there. In the case of a single
disconnected file (disconnected except for the hyperlink to it, that is), it
probably makes no difference.
Still, when in doubt, import. It gives the FrontPage server extensions for
that web a "heads up" that the file has been added. In some cases, this is
critical.
