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.
Image file extensions that the software recognizes are: AFP, BMP, EPS, GIF, JPG/JPEG,
PCL, PDF, PNG, PS, SVG, and TIF/TIFF.
Editing a Dynamic Image
To edit dynamic images added to the template earlier, right-click the image, or the space
reserved for the dynamic images. Then click Dynamic Image to open the Dynamic Image
Script Wizard again.
Alternatively you may double-click the respective script on the Scripts pane.
Dynamic Print section backgrounds
Print sections can have a PDF background image (see "Using a PDF file or other image as
background" on page137). This feature is often used to create a Print template from a PDF file
while making some minimal changes to it. Of course, the PDF file itself can't be edited in a
Designer template, but when it is used as a section's background, text and other elements,
such as a barcode, can be laid on top of it.
Dynamic backgrounds are switched automatically depending on the value of a data field.
Adding a dynamic background
Dynamic background PDFs can be added to a Print section using the Dynamic Section
Background Script Wizard if:
l One or more data fields contain values on the basis of which the PDFs can be switched.
l There is an appropriate PDF for each case. It is important that the PDFs are named after
the various possible values of the related data field.
