Hi,

Iam trying to add a logo or image to the PDF report output but am unable to do so.
Also am trying to make the report heading aligned to be center but not able to achieve this as well.

Any help with the sample example on how to do this would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks a lot in advance!

Regards!

Can you post your code ?

Check this documentation.

Hope this helps.

Thanks,

Hi ,

Yes I did look into the link which you had provided Ram but its not working.

Waz and Ram ...
Please find my code below :
TABLE FILE CAR
PRINT *
ON TABLE PCHOLD FORMAT PDF
ON TABLE SET STYLE *
TYPE=TABHEADING, IMAGE=IBFS:/wfdev/EDA/EDASERVE/APPPATH/fldr/abc_im.jpeg,
POSITION=(.25 .10), SIZE=(1 1), $
ENDSTYLE
END
-EXIT

THis is the error message am getting :
TABLE FILE CAR
PRINT *
ON TABLE PCHOLD FORMAT PDF
ON TABLE SET STYLE *
TYPE=TABHEADING, IBFS:/wfdev/EDA/EDASERVE/APPPATH/fldr/abc_im.jpeg,
POSITION=(.25 .10), SIZE=(1 1), $
ENDSTYLE
END
-EXIT

Please let me know any workaround for the same.

Thanks a lot in advance!

Regards!

Hi,

Try placing it in REPORT instead of TABHEADING. From your code, there is no TABHEAD component.

TABLE FILE CAR
PRINT *
ON TABLE PCHOLD FORMAT PDF
ON TABLE SET STYLE *
TYPE=REPORT, IMAGE=IBFS:/wfdev/EDA/EDASERVE/APPPATH/fldr/abc_im.jpeg,
POSITION=(.25 .10), SIZE=(1 1), $
ENDSTYLE
END
-EXIT

Thanks,
Ram

In the example provided in the documentation link, you can notice below lines,

TABLE FILE GGORDER
ON TABLE SUBHEAD
"PRODUCTS ORDERED ON 08/01/96"

So there is a component for TABHEAD and so image will be placed there. But in your code, I do not see TABHEAD component.

So try placing Image in REPORT component in my previous post.

Thanks,
Ram

Hi Ram,

I tried it on the report but it is not working.
Please find the error message below :

(FOC757) WARNING. YOU REQUESTED PRINT * OR COUNT * FOR A MULTIPATH FILE
0 ERROR AT OR NEAR LINE 8 IN PROCEDURE ADHOCRQ FOCEXEC *
(FOC3251) IMAGE FILE UNREADABLE OR INVALID: null

Thanks a lot in advance!

Regards!

If you put the image in the same app path as the fex - you should be able to run this below.
You will have to play with the position and size.

TABLE FILE CAR
PRINT CAR SEATS COUNTRY COUNTRY 
BY COUNTRY
HEADING
" "
"</5"
" "
ON TABLE SET PAGE-NUM NOLEAD
ON TABLE PCHOLD FORMAT PDF
ON TABLE SET STYLE *
TYPE=HEADING,
     IMAGE=MYIMAGE.gif,

    POSITION=(+2.700000 +0.000000),
     SIZE=(1.100000 1.10000),
$
ENDSTYLE
END  

Hi ,

I tried placing my Jpeg image in the same app path and am still getting the below error message:
0 ERROR AT OR NEAR LINE 17 IN PROCEDURE ADHOCRQ FOCEXEC *
(FOC3251) IMAGE FILE UNREADABLE OR INVALID: my_image.jpeg


Thanks!

What happens if you rename the image to *.jpg (not *.jpeg)

I was going to say the same thing.

I think the extension drives how the file is handled, and if jpeg is not recognised, then this would explain it.

Hi,

I tried giving the extension as .jpg also but still it is throwing the same error message but am able to get the output in HTML.

Anything wrong with the PDF format.
Please let me know!

Thanks!

Are you sure it is a jpg file ?

Hi,

Yes Waz it is a Jpg file.

Thanks!

Hi,

I meant the extension is Jpeg.

Thanks!

I can find no documentation that says that anything other than a GIF file is supported for PDF output.

Is this something that you have been advised, read in WF documentation or something that you just assumed?

If your output renders to HTML output with your JPEG image then that would indicate that the image file is not damaged.

I would advise converting to a GIF for PDF.

Hi Tony,

Sure,I will try changing the image format to GIF.

Thanks a lot everyone for your response and time!

Thanks a lot again!

I am a bit surprised.
We have been using jpg's for many years and they have always worked.

If they have taken jpg support out of v8, then thats a step backwards.

Hey Waz,
They haven't, I use jpg's in WF8 and they display fine...

Then perhaps the jpg is corrupt to a point that WF has problems reading it, but other tools work ??

I was only saying what I could find within documentation - never said that it was exhaustive

It's also why I suggested rendering in HTML to check the image is able to be read.

Just concerned that the documentation is in genral the source of truth, and although it would probably not happen......

Oh well, hopefully its just another case of general paranoia.

As IP changed the post subject to [CLOSED] shortly after suggesting converting to a gif, I am guessing that any potential image corruption (or otherwise ) was overcome by the conversion and usage of a gif.
