Embedding image in export to HTML

We are using SAP Crystal .NET runtime v13.0.9.
We export to HTML 4.0 and embed the report output within the body of an email (not as an attachment). The report contains a link to a static image using an http URL using the Formula Editor.
When received by the email recipients, the image is not visible and upon reviewing the source, it looks like the http URL is replaced with a file location ("C:\...").
How can we ensure that the URL remains as the link to the image in the exported HTML output rather than being replaced by a file location?
Thanks in advance for any suggestions.

What happens when you export the report the HTML to local disk?
Does this also happen when you export the report to PDF?

Need Help Putting a Flash Widget into an Image Being Exported into HTML

Hi, I'm making a banner for the top of my band's MySpace. I only got into making layouts and such because we didn't want to spend the money on hiring a professional, so I'm kind of new to this and I don't know if anyone can help but what I'm trying to do is put a flash widget (for Twitter) into an image on Photoshop which I will then export into html. Can I do this on Photoshop or do I need to do it on another program. Any help would be appreciated, thanks!

No, this requires you to learn HTML and create the proper embedding code and page layout.

Image hyperlinks are lost upon export to HTML

Hi,
I have many documents I need to convert to HTML. I need the images in the documents to be links. This has worked fine, according to normal procedures if the images are png, jpg, or gifs. However, most of my images are not those formats. So if I have an eps, pdf, and tiff in my document, upon html export, there is no hyperlink. That is, the <a href></a> tags are not in the HTML at all. But if I convert the images to png, jpeg, or gifs, put them in my document, then choose that file format for conversion, the links work fine.
I want to say there is an issue with the link tags upon file conversion. It could be something else, but I am not sure why it works for certain file formats and not others. I figured ID would keep the association with the hyperling after converting an image from say and eps to jpg. If anyone knows what if going on, that would be most helpful, or if anyone knew of a good way to keep hyperlinks for images after exporting to HTML, I would greatly appreciate it.
(I can obviously add the link tags myself in the HTML, or convert the images myself and put them in the docs, but I have many documents and would like some automated way.)
Thanks for the help!

Might help if you told us what version of InDesign you're using.

Could work an animated flash bitmap image exported in html 5, in DPS ?

I'm new in DPS, just started for a couple of weeks and I need to use a image in an animation.
I created the animation in inDesign exported in .fla, used de toolkit js, load it in a container with web content overlay, and when I preview it with Adobe Content Viewer it doesn't work, it apears a blank screen. Neighter of animation from that stage won't work.
To be very precise any animation works fine, when I test the html in a browser, the problem appears only in the content viewer.
The animation is very simple: smal logo entering in the stage from the right, not very complex.
I tried in flash with other images in a test file and loaded in inDesign, and still don't work. Other vector animation works well, no problem. I saw that if I have an image in library in flash and export a simple animation with a vector ball, won't work in indesign preview, with content viewer.
My question is, Could work an animated flash bitmap image exported in html 5, in DPS ? If so, what should I need to do ?
Thank you in advance.

Two possible solutions I was considering:
1) In my index/first page, have all the swfs present (scaled to 1x1, behind something, or invisible) and have a preloader code on that first page... so all the content gets loaded before continuing onto the rest of the site. That would certainly work in making the site run quick... but would mean a relatively lengthy wait at the start. Luckily, unlike my current site, all the actual site content (aside from the header/nav interface) is HTML... so the bulk of the site's content is in the HTML pages, not as part of the Flash header... so it probably wouldn't be too horrific a wait. However, it would be loading EIGHT of these swfs, since there are eight pages... so then maybe it would be....
2) Have an swf that consists of just the 'draw up' of the interface, and it's idle state... then when each button is pressed, load a new swf to replace the main one, which has the specific page's animated title sequence, and ends with the code to load the html page. So, each separate HTML page would have embedded into it only the main swf, and the title animation swf would be swapped in when a nav button is pressed. Main issue here is each button press would envoke a preloader sequence (kind of tedious)... and unfortunately all the 'main interface' elements loaded in with the main swf would have to be loaded in again at the start of each animated title swf (although none of the draw up... just the loading of the interface and buttons). For highspeed users, it should be okay, I guess....
Thoughts or better ideas?

Embedded image in html body of the email is not appearing in Outlook mail box

My application Basically gets the un delivered emails from the outlook account.Composes the email from information then also appends the signature of email.The signatures may be multiple , form will show these signatures as a dropdown usin webbrowser control there both image as well as links appear well.But the same if draft them to outlook drafts folder the image in the signature misses and shows image not available.II fetch the signature from user local signature folder , convert it base64 string and set the string as source for image element and append this body of the email.I basically use Outlook COM object to achieve thesepublic void AddImageContentToHtml(List<TamDetails> tamList,string html,string key)

Hi ssanjay.brillio,
According to your description, you'd like to send a email with an embedded image in the signature.
I suggest you sending the image in the last of the body of email instead of operating the signature of email.
The following example codes demonstrate how to send email using ImportHtml method with embedded images.
SmtpMail oMail = new SmtpMail("TryIt");
SmtpClient oSmtp = new SmtpClient();
// Set sender email address, please change it to yours
oMail.From = "[email protected]";
// Set recipient email address, please change it to yours
oMail.To = "[email protected]";
// Set email subject
oMail.Subject = "test HTML email with embedded image";
// Your SMTP server address
SmtpServer oServer = new SmtpServer("smtp.emailarchitect.net");
// User and password for ESMTP authentication, if your server doesn't require
// User authentication, please remove the following codes.
oServer.User = "[email protected]";
oServer.Password = "testpassword";
// If your smtp server requires SSL/TLS connection, please add this line
// oServer.ConnectType = SmtpConnectType.ConnectSSLAuto
try {
// Import html body and also import linked image as embedded images.
// 'test.gif is in c:\\my picture
oMail.ImportHtml("<html><body>test <img src=\"test.gif\"> importhtml</body></html>", "c:\\my picture", ImportHtmlBodyOptions.ImportLocalPictures | ImportHtmlBodyOptions.ImportCss);
Console.WriteLine("start to send email with embedded image ...");
oSmtp.SendMail(oServer, oMail);
Console.WriteLine("email was sent successfully!");
} catch (Exception ep) {
Console.WriteLine("failed to send email with the following error:");
Console.WriteLine(ep.Message);
If you have any other concern regarding this issue, please feel free to let me know.
Best regards,
Youjun Tang

Sql server reporting services + export to excel + embedded images

Hi all,
i got a problem when exporting to excel in ssrs 2008.
i use embedded image in the report. but when i export the report to excel, image is being exported but its width is being changed to size 0 .
but when i click on it and expand it explicitly in excel it is being expanded .
how to make the image by default to its actual width?
how to fix this problem ?

Hi sudeep Puvvadi,
Based on the information posted, I have a test with SQL Server Reporting Services 2008 (SSRS2008) and Microsoft
Excel 2010 by the following steps:
From the Toolbox window, drag the image to the top edge of the design surface.
In the image Properties dialog box, select Embedded from the Select The Image Source drop-down list.
Click import, and select a BMP file from my local computer.
Right-click the image, select Image Properties. In Size category, select Original size.
Export the report to excel.
When opening the excel file, the image displays with original size rightly. So I suggest you to add an image with
the same steps above, then checking whether the image shows correctly. If it still cannot work fine for you, could you please give me a feedback and tell me related settings, so that I can reproduce the scenario exactly and provide further assistance?
Thanks,
Lola Wang

UTL_SMTP send HTML email with embedded image?

Hi, I can use UTL_SMTP to send an HTML email ok, but does anyone have an example of how to include an inline embedded image in the email? Thanks!

If you want to send the html page and have it
reference the images and css files on your web
site, that's pretty easy. Just create a message
with text/html content that is your html page.
If you want to include all the images and css files
in your message along with the html page, you'll
need to create a multipart/related message and
you'll need to change all the html to reference the
images and css files using "cid:" references.

Acrobat X combines several images into one when exporting to HTML

I'm trying to export a PDF that contains a table of text and images to HTML. When I do, Acrobat correctly places the text in an HTML table. The individual images, however, are combined into a single image and appear outside the table. Here's a sample PDF.
The images in the PDF are simple sparklines. They're generated in Excel 2011 (Mac). Excel, bless it, can't export sparklines to HTML on its own. So I'm exporting to PDF instead. When I open the PDF in Acrobat, I can select and manipulate the images individually, so I don't think they're already combined before the PDF>HTML export. They are afterwards, though. Since the total number of rows that need to be exported to HTML is about 2,000, exporting the images from Acrobat individually isn't a working solution.
The image that Acrobat exports doesn't even look that great, but a working export would put me miles ahead of where I am now. Any ideas on how to fix this?

Generic advice, which has been true ever since Acrobat 1.0. The fact that you can convert X to PDF, and PDF to Y, does not mean that this is ever a good way to convert X to Y. Too much information is lost at each stage.

Can't select text when export in HTML and Images

I am entirely new to Fireworks and I can't find anyone to teach me Adobe Fireworks. I followed some youtube tutorials but most of them are vague. I am still figuring the way to export from Fireworks to Dreamweaver, without affecting its contents like bitmap images and the text. When I export in HTML and Images format and opened the htm file, I can't select the text I've inserted in Fireworks. Can anyone tell me what I should do?

I cant scroll below or above viewable section of text in any of my Macbooks, iMac, Mac Mini. Never have been able to, never could, except by pressing the arrow keys whilst selecting, to move up or down.
Its stupid
I dont have flash installed (never will do since my first virus of video ad sound running in background from Cnet was downloaded and kept returning until i deinstalled flash).
I believe that this is a universal issue because none of my Macs can scroll out of screen when selecting text, which as a webmaster and developer, is a pain in the butt
My issue is not in word documents, its in everything

OBIEE v11.1.1.5 - Cannot view embedded images ( PDF/HTML)

Hi Everyone,
I have a OBIEE 11g report with embedded images and I scheduled to run every week using an agent.
When I specify Delivery content and format as ( PDF or Plain HTML ) the email does not display any images
Error if format is HTML : The linked image cannot be displayed. The File moved,renamed, or deleted. Verify that the link points to the correct file and location.
I also tried printing to pdf, but images are not displayed.
Tried using both fmap and html syntax to link images. Has any one encountered this issue in v 11.1.1.5 ?
Please suggest
Thanks

Base64 decoding - perl & openssl vs. html embedded image

I am having a strange problem. I have a TIFF image stored in a SQLite database encoded as Base64. When I retrieve the Base64 characters, save them to a file using an applescript writing a utf-8 text file to disk (or just saving it in TextWrangler), and then try to feed that file into openSSL using the Base64 decoding option, I get an empty file or just a small (not nearly large enough) file that will not open. BUT! When I put that same string into a img tag using base64 decoding in an HTML document, it displays properly in a browser window. Anyone have an idea why this might happen? It does not work using perl either.
The html code is here: http://web.me.com/danaleighton/base64.html
The file I am feeding into openSSL is here: http://web.me.com/danaleighton/base64sm.txt
I am using the following command: openssl enc -base64 -d -in base64sm.txt -out testscript.tiff
This perl command also does not work: perl -i.txt -MMIME::Base64 -e 'undef $/;while(){print decode_base64($_);}' base64sm
Thanks in advance for any help!!!

it's most likely the text you're extracting from the database is either corrupted or wasn't encoded as you expect. Note that your success with the img tag decoding may be misleading. I can't give you details that apply to this case, but browsers typically use smarter decoding tools which are more robust ...
1) Was the text in the database produced by an internal encoder or was it obtained either from a standard e-mail attachment or produced by this command or its equivalent?:
Thanks Ray - I was afraid of that. I am extracting the image from a database written by a commercial application. I checked with the developers, and they said it was base64, so that's all I have to go on. I reported this anomaly to them but haven't heard back in over a week.
2) Are you sure you're retrieving exactly the same bytes that were stored in the database?
As sure as I can be. For testing, I invoke sqlite from a shell to do the select statement and dump the result to the terminal. Then copy and paste from terminal to a TextWrangler document. I have done the same with an Applescript.
One complicating factor: the text stored in the database has these weird markup tags that I can't find any documentation. They look like this: <iimg><preferredFilename>Embedded image</preferredFilename><segment>TU0AK...=
</segment><segment>UdSVL...=
</segment></iimg>
I strip these out of the field coming from the database.
To isolate the problem...
Unfortunately, since I am not creating the database, I am loath to write to it. I could, but since the problem is likely in the way the developers are encoding or storing the data, it wouldn't do much to solve my problem...
Thanks so much for your suggestions!! Very helpful.

How to make muse export to html and image/asset files only without css and jquery?

Hi there adobe community,
I am here today to see if there is a way of only exporting a muse site as html with the css integrated in like dreamweaver does. Therer probably is no way to do this. However, i dont want external .css files and .js files i want them all in the html file, is there a way to do this. The reason i want to know is because my client wants no external files and only wants an image and html documents. I told him that it might not be possible and i want to know if it is. If you could help me that would be great.
Thankyou For Your Time.

Hi Pink,
When Muse exports as HTML , It exports everything separately like the HTML files , .Css files in a different folder and the .js files in a different folder. There is no way in Muse that you can export in any other way.
This is because a lot of the Css properties are used all across the site and not only on a particular page and so these properties are shared.
Moreover this is a much more efficient way of designing a website rather than keeping everything in a single file.
Regards,
Rohit Nair

How i prevent text converting into image when exporting as a HTML FORMAT IN ADOBE FIREWORKS?

]I am an architect and wants to design my basic website with minimum graphics.
I am using coreldraw for graphics design but it is related to print (Hardcopies) and corel is not smart soft compared to adobe software.
So, for web design, I started to learn Fireworks. After some practice, i m able to design web graphics in fireworks.
But the main problem is that, when that page is exported into html format. All text were converted into Image and it is not useful.

Fireworks was devdeloped to use with Dreamweaver. It's not a stand alone app for developing web pages. Adobe Muse might be more the kind of app you are looking for. First, however, Give this tutorial a try.
