zim528 Posted April 27, 2009 Share Posted April 27, 2009 I want to insert a picture into a layout. The layout is a letter with mail merged inside address, etc. The picture is my signature (scanned as a jpeg). I can insert the picture, but it doesn't flow with the layout. In other words, if the mail merged information changes the length of the letter (some people have an inside address of 3, 4 or 5 lines), the signature falls out in the same place on the page no matter what. Is there a way to get the signature to flow inline with the rest of the text? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Søren Dyhr Posted April 28, 2009 Share Posted April 28, 2009 Maybe a webviewer displaying the signature via CSS underneath the text as mergefield starting just on outside of the edge of the webviewer. The allocation of the signature, would then depend on the length of the text, allthough it can get a bit pesky to take unevenly type footprints into the account. This aspect could suggest to do everything inside the webviewer! --sd Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
comment Posted April 28, 2009 Share Posted April 28, 2009 Place the signature immediately under the text, and set both to slide up when printing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Søren Dyhr Posted April 28, 2009 Share Posted April 28, 2009 Indeed but weren't this intended for HTML mails? --sd Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Inky Phil Posted April 28, 2009 Share Posted April 28, 2009 ... and if you follow comments advice don't forget that the effects of sliding and printing do not show up in browse mode,only in preview mode - caught me out a few times thatone!
