Intermec Fingerprint 6.13 – Programmer's Guide
An image field is a field containing a picture or logotype, which has
been converted to the internal bitmap format of Intermec Finger-
print.
In addition to the standard positioning statements PRPOS, ALIGN
and DIR, an image field can contain the following instructions:
MAG
Images can be magnified 1-4 times independently in regard of
height and width.
NORIMAGE (NI) / INVIMAGE (II)
Normally, images are printed as created, i.e. in black without any
background (NORIMAGE). Using INVIMAGE the black and
non-printed background can exchange colours. The size of the
background is decided by the size of the image. A NORIMAGE
statement is only needed when changing back from INVIMAGE
printing.
PRIMAGE (PM)
Specifies the image by name in the form of a string expression. A
string constant must be enclosed by double quotation marks ("...").
A string variable may be useful when the same image is to appear
in several places. The extension indicates the suitable directions:
Extension .1 matches DIR 1 and DIR 3
Extension .2 matches DIR 2 and DIR 4
