Merging A Signature Scan Into A Merge Letter

Featured Replies

I have been working on a merge letter feature. I've tried to insert, via a merge, a scanned in signature. It is referenced through a Substitute calculation step I modeled after Jeff Nesheim's (at Excelisys) example of Implementing Mail Merge. Caveat: Jeff did not have a signature scan in his example). This is how the substitution is defined:

"<<My_Signature>>"; cli__FRN~One::SignatureScan__lc )

the letter is based in the client file, while the signature comes from the FRN file.

Everything works in my merged letter but the signature, nothing shows up but space. I'm using FMPAdvanced 11.

Thanks for the help!

I have been able to put in signatures - but not as a merge field - I don;t believe that FileMaker allows a "merged" container - it has to be the field itself. That works.
