Base64 encoded images are supported; however, they are added differently: set the src
attribute of an <img> element to the base64 code (see below, "Images" on the previous page).
For Email and Web output, PNG is the preferred image format.
EPS, PDF, SVG and TIFF images in an Email or Web section are automatically converted to
PNG to ensure that they can be seen in the browser or email client.
32-bit BMP files are not supported.
Ways to use images
In templates, both imported images and external images can be used (see "Adding images"
on the next page and "Resources" on page464). Once added to the content of a template, an
image can be resized (see "Resizing an image" on page773) and alternate text can be linked
to it (see "Setting an alternate text" on page734).
Tip
Using images in an Email template? See "Using images in email campaigns: tips" on
page520.
Dynamic images
Images can be switched dynamically, so that a letter, email or web page can include one image
or another, depending on a value in the data set. Read "Dynamic images" on page823 to find
out how to add such switching images.
Background images
Several parts of templates, such as sections and media, and elements such as positioned
boxes, can have a background image. Right-click the element and click the Background tab to
select an image to be used as the element's background image. See "Background color and/or
image" on page775 and "Using a PDF file or other image as background" on page492.
