Re: images on SQR



I have created a utility for Brio Support that allows the use of quality
raster images inside of SQR lis files.  It basically involves creating a
"PCL" image on a Windows box by using the PCL print driver.  You can then
transfer your "PCL" image that you created on Windows to your Unix box or
leave it on Windows if using sqrw.exe.  You modify your SQR code as
documented in the included readme.txt file.  Run SQR and generate a PCL lis
file.  Then run the enclosed pcl utility on the lis file to merge the "PCL"
file into the lis file.

This method works fairly well even though it is a little bit of a kludge to
setup.  But this process also takes advantage of PCL macros to reduce file
size.

In this zip file there is the C source code that works for most Unixes and
Windows.  It is a single C file so it is easy to compile with just "cc -o
pcl pcl.c" on most Unixes and "cl.exe /DWINDOWS pcl.c" on Windows.

Subject: images on SQR


I have a Dream ... that my SQR reports will have images one day .. its 4
years now every time I try printing image (I do other work also) it keeps
printing gray box ... for any type of image ...

Please can anyone send me their code .. just print-image or declare-image/
print-image command is enough and the file you print with that ... which
actually works.

I will not use that file for anything ... but I can use that to check if my
image size and co-ordinates have some issue. Please ...


Thank you any help
