l
Url lists image files from a specific web address. Select the protocol (http or
https), and then enter a web address (for example,
http://www.mysite.com/images/image.jpg).
Note
If a URL doesn't have a file extension, and the option Save with template is
not selected, the Select Image dialog automatically adds the filetype
parameter with the file extension as its value (for example: ?filetype=pdf
(if it is the first parameter) or &filetype=pdf).
The filetype, page and nopreview parameters are not sent to the host;
they are used internally. Therefore, URLs that rely on one of these parameters
cannot be used.
l
With an external image, you can check the option Save with template. If this option
is checked, the file will be inserted in the Images folder on the Resources pane at
the top left.
If it isn't saved with the template, the image remains external. Note that external
images need to be available when the template is merged with a record set to
generate output, and that their location should be accessible from the machine on
which the template's output is produced. External images are updated (retrieved) at
the time the output is generated.

Select the PDF's position:
l
Fit to page stretches the PDF to fit the page size.
l
Centered centers the PDF on the page, vertically and horizontally.
l
Absolute places the PDF at a specific location on the page. Use the Top field to
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
left side of the PDF.
The Top and Left offset can be specified in the usual units of measurement or as a
percentage of the page (for example: a Left value of 25% means it will be placed at
25% of the page width).
6.
Set the scale of the image as a percentage of the original image.
7.
Click one of the options next to Rotation to rotate the image.
