Anyone have an idea how to insert an image into a .doc file in flex.
I have the snapshot of the image, and I am able to save it as a .png file, but i need to insert this into a .doc file.

Thanks

load the data using URLLoader instead to get the raw image data, then you can convert it to a Bitmap and display that.

<custom:SavableImage id="saveImage" name="” >

in above code filename will be image name coming from server. I have file name set in database column and actual file on server. So it was pretty easy to replace filename to {javadto.imagefilename}

Now in actionscript

===========================
var bmp:Bitmap = Bitmap(this.content);
var myEncoder:JPGEncoder = new JPGEncoder(75);
var byte:ByteArray = myEncoder.encode(bmp.bitmapData);
var fr:FileReference = new FileReference();
fr.save(byte, this.name);
=========================

save dialog will have same file name as source.

===========================
var bmp:Bitmap = Bitmap(this.content);
var myEncoder:JPGEncoder = new JPGEncoder(75);
var byte:ByteArray = myEncoder.encode(bmp.bitmapData);
var fr:FileReference = new FileReference();
fr.save(byte, “test.jpg”);
=========================

You have add this in saveImageAs function in source file SaveableImage.cs in Jamesward packge.

You need two additional file JPGEncodeer.as and BitString.as for conversion on client side. I can’t attach them on blog.
