Expression: Specifies:
='map' An image resource internal to the document. If no image resource
exists by that name, the document looks for an image in the root
folder of the default disk of the printer or an image in the local
PlanetPress Design Suite virtual disk. If the image file is on either
the printer disk or the local PlanetPress Design Suite virtual disk, it is
in PostScript format.
=trim( @( 3,1,20 ) ) +
'.png'
An image in the document, or a host-resident or printer-resident
image. The document first looks for an image internally. If it does
not find it internally it looks for an image in the root folder of the
default disk of the printer or an image in the local PlanetPress Design
Suite virtual disk. The document constructs the specific path of the
image by concatenating the data selection that specifies the name of
an image file, and the file name extension .png. If the image file is
on either the printer or the PlanetPress Design Suite virtual disk, it is
in PostScript format.
='S:\\parts\\wingnut.tif' A host-resident image file. The document expects to find the image
wingnut.tif in the parts folder of the S drive of the host on which it
is executing. The image is TIFF format, one of the supported image
formats.
='%disk1%parts\\bolt.eps'
or
='%disk1%parts/bolt.eps'
A printer-resident image file. The document expects to find the
image bolt.eps in the parts folder of the printer disk named disk1.
The image file in this case is in PostScript format. The .eps file name
extension reflects the Naming convention option you set in the
Image Downloader.
='S:\\people\\' + trim( @(
1,1,24 ) )
A host-resident dynamic image file. The document expects to find
the image in the people folder of the S drive of the host on which it
is executing. The document constructs the specific path of the image
by concatenating the path of a folder, with a data selection that
specifies the name of an image file. The images in the folder on the
host are in one or more of the supported image formats.
='%disk2%' + trim( @(
1,1,20 ) ) + '.tif'
A printer-resident image file. The document expects to find the
image in the root of the printer disk named disk2. The document
constructs the specific path of the image by concatenating the name
of the disk, the data selection that specifies the name of an image
file, and the file name extension .tif. The image file is in PostScript
format. The .tif file name extension reflects the Naming convention
option you set in the Image Downloader.
=if ((&printermode=1),
'C:\\proofs\\' +
@(1,30,12),'finals\\' +
@(1,30,12))
One set of image files for a screen preview (printermode=1) and
another for when the document executes on a printer. In the case of
a screen preview, it uses images found in the proofs folder on the C
drive of the host on which PlanetPress Design is executing. The
images in the folder on the host are in one or more of the supported
image formats. If the document is not executing for a screen
preview, it looks for an image in the finals folder of the default disk
of the printer or an image in the finals folder of the local PlanetPress
Design Suite virtual disk. If the image file is on either of these
locations, it is in PostScript format.
