I am using the Document Composer to create a power point and I am having trouble inserting an image in to the powerpoint slides. When I include the image, I can see it in the preview, but when I go to run the report it doesn't display the image. I've also tried doing this with the car file. This works as long as I have it set to HTML, but as soon as I switch the output to PDF or PPT, it says " 0 ERROR AT OR NEAR LINE 68 IN PROCEDURE ADHOCRQ FOCEXEC *
(FOC3251) IMAGE FILE UNREADABLE OR INVALID: lawson1.gif".

According to the help file powerpoint is supposed to work with both jpg and gif images. Any help would be appreciated.

Ensure that lawson1.gif is in the App Path and you don't need the app/.

Taking out the app/ did it.

In looking into this I realized that I had to put the file on the same server as our Reporting Server. When creating an html report, the file needs to be accessible to the web server. Originally I had all the files in the domain, but once I moved it under baseapp I started having more success.

Thanks for the tip Francis.
