Hi all, we are currently developing an Informix report (a letter) that requires a Logo (graphic) on top, and text-based content follows. Does anyone knows how can we do that without using pre-printed forms? Can plain text files be printed together with encapsulated postscript graphics?

Thanks a lot

It depends how the Informix report is being developed. Is it one of the Informix front end products like Informix 4GL or their report writer?

Informix, like most modern databases, possesses a binary large object, BLOB, type. This type allows you to store non-text data. Maybe you can store your logo in a blob and retrieve it during the reporting process.

It depends on the ability of the report design tool. It needs to be able to generate the graphics report output file (not the chararcter output file).

The modern printer should always be able to print the graphics.
