Include PDF/RTF stored as blob like an image in the report

Question

Hi,
I've one rtf template and at the end of the document I will attach a predefined text. I has two ideas how to implement that. One could be to store the text as a file in the file system (as rtf, doc, pdf, ...) and link it in the document (the link must by dynamically because of different text depending on a value in my xml). The other way could be to store my different texts as a blob in the db and include it like an image (an image I've still included and it works).
Can somebody explain me step by step how to solve my problem.
Regards
Carsten

Hi Chris,
tx for your reply.Including with sub-templates works fine. Now I try du import my sub-template dynamically. I've a value in my data XML for the sub-template and I like to do build my import link with this value.
Now I'm using:
<?import:http://#server#:#port#/xmlpserver/sub_template1.rtf?>
And I want to do something like this:
<?import:http://#server#:#port#/xmlpserver/<mySubTemplate>.rtf?>
where <mySubTemplate> is the value from my data XML.
I looked for variables in the documentation, but I'm not shure how to use them.
In the chapter "Using XSL Elements" there is an example <xsl:variable name="color" select="'red'"/> but I'm not shure if I can use this syntax in my rtf-template, because to lines above in the doc the BI Publisher Tag is <?variable:name?> but where do I assign my value there?
tx in advanced for the support
Carsten
