How to display an image on a PDF from KM

[Former Member]

Hi experts

I have embedded images on my PDF's many times, but now the requirement is to reference an image from KM.

Could someone please give me a simple How-To explaining how to do it.

I can't seem to find any helpful info using the search.

thansk in advance.

here is a [link|http://www.adobe.com/devnet/acrobat/pdfs/lc_dynamic_images.pdf] to documentation on how to add dynamic images to your form.

Well dynamic images have been removed from Reader 8.1 for security reasons.

If you have images you will need to add them as static objects in your form.

Really??

I know that using URL images has been removed for security reasons, but I wasn't aware that all dynamic images were removed.

I have tried the instructions on the following blog which uses images unploaded using se78, but I can't get that to work either.

[Blog 7783|http://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/scn/weblogs;jsessionid=(J2EE3417400)ID1419400650DB00077382917778273363End?blog=/pub/wlg/7783]

During debugging the images does get passed through to the context, but nothing is displayed..

Could you confim that this functionality has also been removed by SAP/Adobe for security reasons?

Thanks

Anton

I have managed to get this right.

Just so you know that dynamic images have not in fact been removed, only URL images have.

You need to add a Graphic element onto the form context and reference it to a image field of type XSTRING and a MIME type field of type STRING.
