Individual Summary Report - Source Picture Size

Post by Cambiz » 07 Nov 2004 20:58

Please see attached.

I have pictures associated with sources. These can be documents (census images or certificates etc.) or photographs (of places etc)

If I size the source pictures to make the documents legible, the pictures get too large (sometimes a page a picture)

What I'm after is a way of an overide to allow independantly sizing (selected?) source pictures.

Apologies if this has been covered - I couldn't see it.

Also apologies, Jane, if the jpg is too big - please feel free to resize it.

What I tend to do is print small source images on the reports, to give a flavour and then print separate source report pages for any images I want people to actually read.

I've just tried it again. I'm trying to upload a jpg.
I get

Success!!
Your file Wish_CAM4.jpg has been uploaded.
Click to insert code
Close window

The file is actually Wish_CAM.jpg and this is the fourth time I've tried to upload it, so something is incrementing. I've just screen dumped the popup if you want me to mail it seperately.

Back to the actual wish - does this mean it doesn't go into the wish list?

Cheers

Chris
