For a PDF resource, you have to specify where it is located. Clicking the Select Image
button opens the Select Image dialog (see "Select Image dialog" on page725).
Click Resources, Disk or Url, depending on where the image is located.
l
Resources lists the images that are present in the Images folder on the Resources
pane.
l
Disk lets you choose an image file that resides in a folder on a hard drive that is
accessible from your computer. Click the Browse button to select an image.
As an alternative it is possible to enter the path manually. The complete syntax
is:file://<host>/<path>. Note: if the host is"localhost", it can be omitted, resulting
infile:///<path>, for example: file:///c:/resources/images/image.jpg.
Check the option Save with template to insert the image into the Images folder on
the Resources pane.
l
Url allows you to choose an image from a specific web address. Select the protocol
(http or https), and then enter the web address (for example,
http://www.mysite.com/images/image.jpg).
Note
It is not possible to use a remotely stored PDF file as a section's background,
because the number of pages in a PDF file can not be determined via the http
and http protocols. Therefor, with an external image, the option Save with
template is always checked.

specify the distance between the top side of the page and the top side of the PDF,
and the Left field to specify the distance between the left side of the page and the
