Hi Joe
You need to resize before hand .

If Dom is busy you can call me for help.
I need to stay in tonight anyway.

My biggest issue is that if we want to add a illustration from file in with the regular pictures there is no thumbnail view in the file browser for some reason.
Downloading a property file in batch it does not matter, but to add from a illustration file it is difficult to just see a text view and pick the correct one .

Same if you wish to add a picture twice as you do not label or name inspection pictures and need to reopen from your file to notate the file number then go back to the software to pick it.


Here is a repeat of the code I sometimes use but remember my fast alternative for for other cavemen like me is to simply resize your graphic to 300x300 and replace the one that is there with the one you want.
Just remember to make a extra copy of the original first and of course you need to rename it.

Do this from the HIP file in your computer programs file.In Vista that would be 86x and in XP would be system files.

Copy and paste my code from Dominic into your blank document.

just replace the bolded part near the bottom of this HTML script with your own file name that you get from hitting properties when you right click a picture you have on your computer.

Re: How to add images to documents 14 years 9 months ago #27717

Thanks Bob,

I had learned the code from Dom, and i am succeeding in getting the picture to fit the documents page perfectly. and Sized to where it should full the report page about 3/4ths.

But there is another issue. btw i also tried using the spacers you had included, before and afterwords, neither worked, but i see the idea .

The issue i have is that ONLY the lower 1/6 th seems to be visible and its hangs just under the header as if the rest of it is BEHIND THE HEADER, kinda looks like it just wants you to pull the sheet of paper down.lol

NO matter WHAT SIZE IT IS- it does not MATTER. thats what happens.  some vertical issue with page.

thats where im at so far.  ???

Re: How to add images to documents 14 years 9 months ago #27723

Yeah I have been playing with it since my response as I have not tried adding images since last August when I bought a HP Desktop with Vista.

The problem I have is the properties does not show in  my file properties HTML info and I gotta go open the picture with IE for the info.

Any way the solution for you is to add or subtract those p style HTML scripts till it moves to the right place.
Once you do that and have it right copy the HPZ or whatever its called in the data file so that you have extra blanks and after that you can just highlight the graphic and paste over it with a new one.Name them something like blank 1,blank 2,blank 3

My issue is with the fact that the graphics are not very sharp and any text included often tends to the blurry side.

Just adding as a picture file would be much easier if we could have a res size control to double the size of some pictures.
I know it is possible because the cover photo is actually a perfect size for a graphic doc.

Bob, are you talking about when adding a photo to a document, or within the photo section of the program?

The problem is you can't have 2 cover page photos side by side , so you'd have to have 1 photo across to have that.
