How to add image or logo in the fax output?

Here are some code's that i used but not displaying the image. Only the text output displayed.

public static JobSubmitRequestDocument createELJobSubmitRequestDocument(StringBuffer formattedFaxMessage, String faxNumber, String accountName ) {
        JobSubmitRequestDocument jobSubmitRequestDocument = JobSubmitRequestDocument.Factory.newInstance();
        JobSubmitRequest jobSubmitRequest = jobSubmitRequestDocument.addNewJobSubmitRequest();

        MessageType message = jobSubmitRequest.addNewMessage();
        JobOptionsType jobOption = message.addNewJobOptions();
        FaxOptionsType faxOption = jobOption.addNewFaxOptions();
        EncodableStringType billingCode = jobOption.addNewBillingCode();
        //billingCode.setStringValue(billingNum.toString());

        EncodableStringType customerReference = jobOption.addNewCustomerReference();
        accountName = accountName.contains(",") ? accountName.replace(",", ";") : accountName;
        customerReference.setStringValue(accountName);

        DeliveryItemListType destinations = message.addNewDestinations();
        FaxType fax = destinations.addNewFax();
        fax.setPhone(faxNumber);

        ContentsType content = message.addNewContents();
        ContentPartType part = content.addNewPart();
        DocumentType document = part.addNewDocument();
        document.setDocType("HTML");
        DocDataType docData = document.addNewDocData();
        docData.setFormat(DocEncodingFormat.TEXT);
         docData.setStringValue(formattedFaxMessage.toString());
        return jobSubmitRequestDocument;
    }

You are pointing to an image that resides on your local system. That does not get passed along in the submit. You need to either put the image on a web server someplace
and include an actual link to it in the HTML, or possibly embed the image
directly into the HTML (see http://www.techerator.com/2011/12/how-to-embed-images-directly-into-your-html/).

I tried to get the code from the Base64 converted sample code there and still not displaying the image.

Is there any other option/code that i can use?

We'd need to see the HTML that you submitted to see if we can help with the embedding.

Otherwise, you would need to place the logo on a web server that is accessible from the internet and then include a regular <img> reference to that URL in your HTML.

austinzs

Can you send me a sample JobSubmit input XML with an image? Something like HTML message referrring an image and the image attached to the JobSubmit request.

Attached is the HTML, I am sending.

Your HTML is almost correct, but it looks like some of the escaping didn't work when you generated your IMG tag.

Here's what your HTML output has. I've highlighted the problem areas in red.

<p class=MsoNormal><span style='mso-fareast-font-family:"Times New Roman"'>img
    src=&quot;data:image/png;base64,iVBORw0KGgoAAAANSUhEUgAAAM0AAAD

Note that this HTML is missing the initial left-arrow ("<") at the beginning of the IMG specification. Also, the other delimiters (quotation marks and the right-arrow (">") are HTML character references (" and >) which they shouldn't be, for this to work.

If you replace this part of the HTML with this:

<p class=MsoNormal><span style='mso-fareast-font-family:"Times New Roman"'><img
    src="data:image/png;base64,iVBORw0KGgoAAAANSUhEUgAAAM0AAAD

    AAAAAElFTkSuQmCC" alt='beastie.png'/>

The resulting file should render correctly.

We do not support including the image as a separate document within the job submit request. The only other alternative to the above would be to specify the image as a regular HTTP reference, and then to host the image somewhere (<img src="http://your_web_server.com/path/to/the/image").

Please kindly check the attached request.xml why the image is not displaying.

A few comments/issues:

When submitting questions, it would be very helpful if you would include the JobID for your tests. That would allow us to see what is happening with your jobs more easily.
- In looking at the XML, I see an inconsistency between the way the document is specified and the way the content is actually included.
  
  The XML says:

But the content of the HTML document is not encoded. I realize this is confusing - you are already base64 encoding your image data as part of the HTML, but based on the above you also need to encode the entire HTML body.

I do recommend that you base64 encode the data, by the way. Otherwise the special character in the HTML will mess up the decoding of the XML. I've attached a new version of the XML which has the correct base64 encoding of the HTML content.

There is one other thing that will need to happen to make this all work properly - your profile will need to be set up to use the correct HTML rendering software. By default I think it will use an older version of IE which won't handle the embedded image data. If you can let us know your user ID on the test system, we can set up the configuration for you. If you don't want to include that here, you can send it to messagingapi@opentext.com.
