Subject: [RBASE-L] - Re: Embedding PDF in a report



Hey Karen,


  Try renaming a PDF file to Filename.jpg and see what you get... :)

Unless something has changed lately, I know you cannot place a
PDF inside an RBase report, like you can a JPG.  (I don't want a link,
I want the actual one-page PDF)

My notes say that the solution is to convert the PDF to a JPG, but
I have no examples or recommendations of programs. Has anyone
used a free, easy to install program to convert a PDF to a JPG?
I am going to want to have RBase do the conversion "on the fly"
when a report is requested with no intervention from the user.  

I am going to design a report with data info on the 1st page and the 
PDF file printed as the second page, duplexed.  That's why I can't just
print the PDF directly, following the report.

Everyone has a full version of Adobe on their computers, so if there's
a way to automatically launch Adobe with a conversion parameter
that'd be great.

Thanks for any help!

Karen
