Hi,

I have tested it in IvyScript with the Ivy File type. Please get the Files path with getAbsolutePath()

import ch.ivyteam.ivy.addons.docfactory.TemplateMergeField;
import ch.ivyteam.ivy.addons.docfactory.FileOperationMessage;
import ch.ivyteam.ivy.addons.docfactory.DocumentTemplate;
File image = new File("logo-euro.jpg"); 
File template = new File("template_picture.docx"); // mergefield named Image:FIELD1
List<templatemergefield> mergeFields = new List();
mergeFields.add(new TemplateMergeField("FIELD1", image.getAbsolutePath()));
DocumentTemplate dt = new DocumentTemplate(template.getAbsolutePath(), 
    ivy.wf.getApplication().getFileArea().getAbsolutePath(), "result", "pdf", 
    mergeFields);
FileOperationMessage fom = dt.generateDocument();
ivy.log.info("Result success ? {0} and document produced in {1}", fom.isSuccess(), fom.files.get(0));

I get Result success ? true and document produced in D:\ivy\designer\6.1\files\application\result.pdf

It works fine :

Cheers Emmanuel

Hi,

So it is quite easy (I guess) :) First in your template, your image mergefield name should start with "Image:" This allows the DocFactory Backend to intercept the mail merge operation and see it has to insert an image there. For Example: "Image:my_logo" You do then:

in.MergeField.add(new TemplateMergeField("my_logo", in.myLogoFile.getAbsolutePath()));

This should work.

A new improved version of the IvyAddOns in on the way with the possibility of using java.io.File objects directly as parameters.

I hope this will help you

Regards Emmanuel
