4. The Dynamic Image Script Wizard composes the file names (including the path) based on
the selected location, the prefix, the value of a data field, and the suffix. The variable
part of the file names is the value of the data field(s) in the Field column. The prefix and
suffix are meant to contain static parts of the file names.
Click the first field in the column Field, and then click the downward pointing arrow.
Select the data field to be evaluated.
If you want the file name to be composed of the value of several data fields, simply click in
the next row or click the Add button. This adds a row. Note that the rows will be
concatenated to compose one file name. Only the last suffix should contain the file
extension.
5. The resulting file name, including the path and file extension, is assigned to the src
(source) attribute of the image. You can click Options to verify this.
6. Click Apply or OK. Now click the Preview tab and browse through the records to verify
that the script works as expected.
Tip
The dynamic images feature can be used to insert dynamic signatures, as described in
this how-to: Dynamic signatures.
How to insert dynamic images if there are no data fields with the actual names of the
images is described in another how-to: Dynamic image that doesn't contain the data field
value.
Note
An image with an unknown file extension is represented by a red cross in the output, but
no error is logged unless the image refers to a local file that does not exist on disk.

PCL, PDF, PNG, PS, SVG, and TIF/TIFF.
