Image is blank when mail merging

Hi,


Images are blank after mail merge. Below is my code in .net and attached is my doc template:

Aspose.Words.Document doc = new Aspose.Words.Document(Path.GetFullPath(“D:/”) + “file.doc”);

var str = ModelExtensions.Serialize(viewModel);
StringReader strReader = new StringReader(str);
DataSet dataDS= new DataSet();

dataDS.ReadXml(strReader);

doc.MailMerge.ExecuteWithRegions(dataDS);
doc.UpdateFields();

byte[] data;
MemoryStream mStream = new MemoryStream();
doc.Save(mStream, Aspose.Words.SaveFormat.Doc);
data = mStream.ToArray();

return File(data, “application/msword”, “Rapport-MarketControl.doc”);

image files are located on the web server where the application is deployed. When generating the document on the client workstation, the image is blank (box with no image).

Hi,


Thank you for your response. I already had it working, however, the images are dependent on the location of the image (i am attaching an image from the web server and the word document will be downloaded on the client workstation), Can I possibly embed the image in mail merge?

Hi Jose,


Thanks for your inquiry. I am afraid, I could not find any images attached in this thread. In case you forgot to attach it here, please try re-attaching the file as described below.

Click ‘Reply’ button that will bring you to the ‘reply page’ and there at the bottom you can include any attachments with that post by clicking the ‘Add/Update’ button.

Please make sure that the image on remote server is accessible and it does not require authentication (proxy or credentials). Also, please refer to the following article:

How to Insert Images from a Database

Hope, this helps.

Best regards,
