About Images
The image component enables you to include a graphic in the layout.
Publisher supports the following methods for including an image:
-
Static image: Upload a static image that is saved in the report file. An uploaded image file must be in one of the following graphic file formats: GIF, JPEG, PNG, or BMP. The image file cannot be larger than 500 KB.
-
Static URL: Specify a static link to a URL where an image is stored.
-
Dynamic URL: Include the image URL in an element of the data. The value of the element is evaluated at runtime enabling dynamic insertion of images.
-
Images from a Content Server: Embed dynamic images from a Content Server (UCM) in RTF and XPT templates. The administrator has to create a connection to the Content Server where the images are stored. The data model should use the Content Server as the data source.
Limitations:
- The XPT template supports dynamic images from a Content Server only in the repeating sections.
- The XSLX output format doesn’t support inclusion of images from a Content Server.
- The default size for rendering images from a Content Sever (UCM) is 1 MB.
Note:
You can’t embed an SVG image in a PDF report.
