Scribe inserting image into Word scaling issue

in Scribe by 360Works

Featured Replies

As suggested in the documentation, I'm using ScribeDocSubstitute to insert an image from a container field into Word. This works.

I'm inserting it in a table and it can only be 3cm wide. The image ends up coming in to big & the user has to scale it in Word to fit the cell. I can send the image resized with GetThumbnail. This works but is low res.

How can I push the image to Word scaled to fit but keep the picture quality?

thanks

Hi amallison,

    Unfortunately, ScribeDocSubstitute does not currently have the functionality to pass in height and width parameters. I will add this to our feature request list.

Hi it has been a year since asking this question. Any chance of this being done soon? As this is a need of my client.

I found a turnaround using the GetThumbnail internal function to reduce the image to the correct size before using ScribeDocSubstitute

ScribeDocSubstitute( "*Image*" ; GetThumbnail ( Image ; 200 ; 200 ))

Hope it helps.
