Answer 1

just create a query like this:
select id, image_name, image
from tablethen your XML output would be like this:
<ROWSET>
     <ROW>
          <ID>1</ID>
          <IMAGE_NAME>kljkla</IMAGE_NAME>
          <IMAGE>Lots of characters that represents the BLOB</IMAGE>
     </ROW>
     <ROW>
          <ID>2</ID>
          <IMAGE_NAME>jdkwel</IMAGE_NAME>
          <IMAGE>Lots of characters that represents the BLOB</IMAGE>
     </ROW>
     <ROW>
          <ID>3</ID>
          <IMAGE_NAME>oled</IMAGE_NAME>
          <IMAGE>Lots of characters that represents the BLOB</IMAGE>
     </ROW>
     <ROW>
          <ID>4</ID>
          <IMAGE_NAME>mlish</IMAGE_NAME>
          <IMAGE>Lots of characters that represents the BLOB</IMAGE>
     </ROW>
</ROWSET>in your RTF you put this:
<fo:instream-foreign-object content-type="image/jpg" width="251.8pt" height="174.3pt" xdofo:alt="picture"><xsl:value-of select=".//IMAGE"/></fo:instream-foreign-object>the attributes width and height are optional
