Background Image not visible in a PDF report

Hi Experts!
I create a WORD 2007 template for BI Publisher 11g. I use a background image.
When I test the template locally as a PDF, the background image is visible, but when I open the Report with the BI Publisher, there is no image.
Has anyone an idea?
Regards Norbert

The size of the images was too big after compressing it. It worked fine.

Setting background image for repeating frame in .pdf report

Is it possible to set a background image for a repeating frame, and more specifically for a repeating frame rendered in .pdf?
I do not see any standard property in the navigator for images of any sort and the documentation touches only on setting background images for graphs, which is not the intent in my case. I -did- add an HTML table property background="myimage.jpg" but the report is ultimately generated in .pdf format and I was not surprised to see that the image was not rendered.
Does anyone know if setting a background image as described is even possible, and if so, how? A second but less optimum solution would be setting the image as the background for all report pages, again in .pdf.
Many thanks.

Hi Raj,
Yes you can have an image in the background. Thats possible if you are using XML forms as an iview or ivew dev in WebDynpro...

Background Image Not Visible in Browser

I have searched the forum but I'm not finding a solution that
works.
I'm trying to put a background .png image in a header. It
shows up in Dreamweaver but not in preview mode. I have an external
style sheet that contains this:
.twoColFixRtHdr #header {
background-repeat: no-repeat;
height: 126px;
width: 770px;
padding: 0;
background-position: left top;
margin: 0px;
background-image: url(assets/pictures/banner_3.png);
My page contains the following:
<div id="header">
<h1 class="banner_title_top">Text</h1>
<h1><span class="banner_title_bottom">Text
</span>

</h1>
The ".twoColFixRtHdr" is coming from the fact that I'm using
a pre-made Dw CSS layout.
Any help is very appreciated.

Should have made no difference.

Image not displaying properly in pdf report

Hi,
I have imported a jpg image on the layout using Reports builder 6i folowing File-Import-Image. Its just a static image. Once i move this report to the server in binary mode and open it from apps(Quote pdf report), the report pdf has the image displayed with half side pitch blank color and the other half side with the actual picture. Can you guide what should i do to display the mage properly.
Thanks.

Hi,
Resolved this problem.
I had 2 more images in the same report, one jpeg & another one in gif format. I removed the image in gif format, converted it into jpeg format & imported back in report layout. Thus, making all three images in the report in the same format(Jpeg).
Once I have all images of the same format in a report. It works fine.

SSRS Report - background image not displaying in MHTML email

We have a report that has a rectangle with an image as a background (doesn't make any difference whether image is external, embedded, etc). The background image displays fine on the screen and when exporting to PDF, but doesn't show when emailing (via subscription)
in MHTML format and opening in MS Outlook, gmail, etc.
It seems to be a legitimate bug with SSRS (have tried in SSRS 2008 R2, 2012, 2014).
Is there a workaround? Service Pack?

Hi Corey Gray,
Per my understanding that the background image in the email subscription not display which format is MHTML, right?
I have tested on my local environment and can reproduce the issue. I deliver this report to three email amounts: Outlook, Hotmail and 163, below I will share the test results with you.
Outlook: the backgroudimage disappear in the email body and there is no one attachment being sent in the email.
Hotmail: the backgroudimage disappear in the email body, however, the backgroundimage being sent as one attachment in the email.
163: the backgroudimage displays in the email body and the backgroundimage being sent as one attachment in the email.
Based on previous test results, we can conclude that: these different scenarios caused by the settings of the email rather than Reporting Services.
If you are using Outlook, I would recommend you submit one thread in this Outlook forum,
http://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/en-us/outlook/threads.
In this forum, you can get more professional support about how to set the Outlook.
If you have any other question, please feel free to let me know.

MS Word Background image not converting

I have Microsoft Word 2007 & Acrobat Pro 9. I created a document in Word, and that doc has a background image. However, when I try to convert it to a PDF, one of two things happens: 1) the PDF is created with no background image, or 2) the background image is reduced in size & tiled in repeating rows in the background. Neither of these is acceptable! I've tried the following:
From in Word -->Print-->Acrobat PDF
From Acrobat -->Create PDF-->From File
From Word -->Save As-->PDF
From Acrobat-->set background image
This is quite frustrating, since I don't want to re-do everything in Photoshop just to render the PDF properly. I set the image as a background in Word because I want it to cover the whole 8.5"x11" space without any margins. The image is a 95 dpi JPG sized at 8.5"x11"

You may need to check Acrobat and be sure you have Display Large Images selected. If that is not the issue, it may be a setting in your print options of WORD. Programs like WORD and PPT often have the default set to not print background images because they use so much toner in a regular printer. Since you are using a digital printer that option is not needed.

Graphs / Images not visible in Excel when exported from BI Publisher

When attempting to view a report containing a graph in Excel format from BI Publisher, if you select the View button, the graph image is successfully rendered on the Excel report page.
When selecting the Export button, however, the image is not successfully rendered, and an image placeholder is substituted on the report.
I have changed the web.xml file setting on the server under:
C:\oracle\bise1\bi\oc4j_bi\j2ee\home\applications\xmlpserver\xmlpserver\WEB-INF\web.xml
Here I changed the SecurityFilter Filter Mapping
from:
<url-pattern>/xdo/tmp/*</url-pattern>
to:
<url-pattern>/xdo/tmp/*.tmp</url-pattern>
This was successful in facilitating image rendering in Excel in the first place, but not when the Export button is used.
Note: BIP Version is 10.1.3.2.1
Excel Version is Excel 2007
Any assistance with this will be most appreciated.

background-repeat: repeat;
text-align: left;
padding: 1px 8px;
white-space: nowrap;
border: 1px solid #a3bed8
I put "/i/" in the background-image's url bacause I am referencing an image in the virtual directory but it didn't work. Please help!!

@media screen, projection
ul.MenuBarHorizontal li.MenuBarItemIE
display: inline;
f\loat: left;
background: #FFF;

Because I can't see your site and code in context, I will make a guess that this style is throwing off your alignment:
/* Menu item containers, position children relative to this container and are a fixed width */
ul.MenuBarHorizontal li
margin: 0;
padding: 0;
list-style-type: none;
font-size: 100%;
position: relative;
text-align: center;
cursor: pointer;
width: 160px;
float: left;
background-image: url(file:///E|/MAIN_website/images/menu_background.jpg);
Remove the text-align:center; from the above style.
Instead of centering your list element (li), center the link text (a) itself:
/* Menu items are a light gray block with padding and no text decoration */
ul.MenuBarHorizontal a
display: block;
cursor: pointer;
padding: 0.5em 0.75em;
color: #FFF;
text-align: center;
text-decoration: none;
font-family: Cambria, Arial, sans-serif;
font-size: 14px;
If you don't want the submenu text to be centered, do this immediately after the previous style:
ul.MenuBarHorizontal ul a {text-align: left;}
The sub-submenus are also set up by default to be jogged a bit to the right. You can adjust this style:
/* Submenus should appear slightly overlapping to the right (95%) and up (-5%) */
ul.MenuBarHorizontal ul ul
position: absolute;
margin: -5% 0 0 95%;
that causes sub-submenus to fly out to the right of the submenus to which they attach.
Submenus themselves (not the sub-submenus) should fall directly under the top menu item by default, once you remove the text-align: center; on the li item (above).

DIV Background image not displaying in FF

Hi!
I'm building a floated 3 column DIV layout with a wrapper to center the DIVs. I put a background image in the wrapper to give the appearance of the columns stretching to the bottom of the layout. It displays in IE, but not in FF.
If I give the wrapper a height, the background image shows, but I want the layout to expand as I enter content. My code is below.
I must be missing something. Any tips?
CSS:
#left {
float: left;
width: 200px;
#middle{
float: left;
width: 200px;
#right {
float: left;
width: 200px;
#footer {
background-color: #316262;
float: left;
width: 600px;
clear: both;
#wrapper {
width: 600px;
margin-right: auto;
margin-left: auto;
background-image: url(images/bkg_css_layout.gif);
BODY CODE:
<div id="wrapper">
    <div id="left">Content for "left" Goes Here</div>
    <div id="middle"> Content for"middle" Goes Here </div>
    <div id="right">Content for"right" Goes Here </div>
    <div id="footer">Content for "footer" Goes Here</div>
</div>

Turns out that I couldn't have a float on my footer with clear:both!
FIXED! YEA!

Background image not cached in browser

Hi,
Using JDeveloper 11g R1.
We have a template, with a PanelGroupLayout component with a background image, like follows:
<af:panelGroupLayout layout="horizontal"
inlineStyle="width:100%; height:2px; background-image:url("images/separacioRalles.jpg"); background-repeat:repeat-x;"
id="pt_pgl5">
In runtime, the request made by the browser includes and _adf.ctrl-state=xxxxxx parameter, which I supose causes the browser not checking the cache.
image/jpeg http://127.0.0.1:7101/ViewController-context-root/faces/images/separacioRalles.jpg?_adf.ctrl-state=1bn1yq032y_79
Is there any way to avoid this _adf.ctrl-state? or another way to set the desired background?
Thanks,
Roger

Hi Frank,
Not working fine at all.
I tried as you said:
<af:panelGroupLayout layout="horizontal"
inlineStyle="width:100%; height:2px; background-repeat:repeat-x; background-image:url("/images/separacioRalles.jpg");"
id="pt_pgl5">
and this is the request received on the server:
127.0.0.1 - weblogic [28/ago/2009:10:39:58 +0200] "GET /images/separacioRalles.jpg HTTP/1.1" 404 1214
Comparing with an af:image component:
<af:image shortDesc="asdf"
source="/images/help.gif" id="pt_i1"/>
the request received on the server:
127.0.0.1 - weblogic [28/ago/2009:10:39:58 +0200] "GET /ViewController-context-root/images/help.gif HTTP/1.1" 304 0
If I put the contextroot in the background-image:url (background-image:url("/ViewController-context-root/images/separacioRalles.jpg"), it works fine.
127.0.0.1 - weblogic [28/ago/2009:10:44:28 +0200] "GET /ViewController-context-root/images/separacioRalles.jpg HTTP/1.1" 304 0
So seems that the background image url is not built in the same way as using af:image component.

Background job not showing full output of Report

Dear Experts
we have created zpgm for stad report and try to take output as mail to particular user for future analysis bcaz stad gives only 2 days report only we need keep report for months together so when we run job in foreground it shows proper output but when same thing when we run from background it shows only some part of report in mail (we are unable to get full output through background job )
we send mail through spool receipts we have created folder and maintain user for getting mails through so15 distribution list
we need some input to come out of this major issue
if there is any other workaround let me know
Regards

Hello,
If a job is defined by transaction SM36, the print format parameters will only be taken into account, if they are saved as user specific print parameters of the batch user. If no user specific print format
is defined, the ALV standard logic will be processed adjusting the print format to the actual line size of the report.
For example, the list line size is about 132 characters, the widest available format of the chosen printer will be selected X_65_132.
The problem would be solved by defining a device type which is no format assigned to print, or by defining user specific print format parameters for the batch user, who creates the jobs in SM36 (see
SAP note 1179399, item 6).
Regards,
David

Some images not showing up in PDFs

Are there particular limits on what types of images can be exported to PDF and still be viewed on a mobile device? I see several PDFs where I can view the images on a desktop monitor, but not in an iPod touch. We are trying quite a few iterations of exporting images to PDF and have had no luck figuring it out.

I had this problem too. I found the answer somewhere. I don't remember where, but the answer is this:
When exporting the PDF, the iPad doesn't support JPEG 2000 standard.-- the kind used in "smallest size PDF"
Use JPEG Lossy, and voila!

Background Images not showing up in template-based pages

Best you start here:

Background image not showing up in BC

Rookie here.
I locally developed an index page with a background image in the <body> div. Worked fine locally. When I connected it to BC the background is now white instead of the image. The background shows up in the css. Here is the link:
http://century21print.businesscatalyst.com/index.html
Doyou need anything else.
Thanks for the help!

You need to revise you background url!
This is what you have
background-image:url(file:///P|/websites2/century21print/images/AbstractLightRays.jpg);
it should be something like
background-image:url(/images/AbstractLightRays.jpg);
that 'file:///P|...' is not right!
