I'm with you on this one Brian but it's a personal choice. I like the idea of the jpeg being 'visible' as well - just easier to view.

Lightfoot [mailto:br...@the-lightfoots.com] Sent: Tuesday, September 01, 2015 9:42 AM To: legacyusergroup@LegacyUsers.com Subject: RE: [LegacyUG] unsupported file format I somewhat support this question about using PDFs when the real image might be better/easier especially in this instance when I’m assuming that the PDF is nothing other than a JPEG image or two. Yes, it is entirely possible for PDFs to be added to Legacy but are they supported in all reports and web page creations? Wouldn’t it be better to extract the JPEG image from the PDF and then attach the JPEG as a picture?
