Posted on by MIA27

While composing the html for creating html file and then converting to pdf, whole html is working fine, it creates the file, but the logo is not picked by the code. Below is the portion of the code used for Img and result of pdf created.

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
</head>
<body>
<img src="D:\AllMasterBackUp\Images\gal-logo.png" alt="companylogo" height="100px" width="100px" />
<pre>
<b>

Result of html - converted to pdf

Please advise what correction of the html I should do, so that the image can be picked and to be at the right side of page.

I wanted to keep the company details as shown above in left side and on the right side the image

Re: Pdf creation failing to add the image

@MIA27 - CSS are getting ignored by the "Convert file" OneDrive when convert the same using a third party connector it works fine... The third party connector I used is Muhimbi. Note Muhimbi Connector is a paid connector.

Sample HTML

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
</head
>
<body>
<style>
img {
float: right;
margin-left:20%;
height:45px;
}
b {
float: right;
margin-left:80%;
}
</style>

<div>
<pre>

Re: Pdf creation failing to add the image

Thank you. Noted. I will wait.

trying/ just google and try, came across an idea mentioned
https://stackoverflow.com/questions/60521219/how-to-put-images-and-text-inside-boxes-html-css

to create two container one for the text and for the image and place the position by css coding but within html coding page (as you know I are writing in compose screen). so that can be side by setting and within it margin. as max we have to keep the within 294x210 mm

I am very much new in html coding. I am doing a project, where we are trying to shift our database from MS access to PowerApp. As the Ms access has a report where we use to design the print outs, but here we have one option of creating pdf, if any documentation print is required. So I am using this method as shown in flow to get thing done.

Hope we will fix it and I will learn also by Guru Fernandes

Re: Pdf creation failing to add the image

@MIA27 - What is the action you are using to "Convert HTML to PDF" is it OneDrive action? From what I know we its all about CSS magic and you will need to add inline CSS...

Re: Pdf creation failing to add the image

Dear Mr. Fernandes,
Just to check further, I pasted the complete code in the note pad by file name .html and run it.
Found difference, In this way the page is responsive and the image is on the right side, while in the created pdf it is not on the right side.
But Image should be next to the text, not the first image and then the text. attached is the result file run from note pad

This indicates the code, need to be modified and A4 declaration is important, not sure, my guess.
Please check these difference and advise

Re: Pdf creation failing to add the image

yes, Thank you, original problem is solved. I marked it Accept as solution.

But, I am still not able to obtain the required position of the image, I opened the link as you advised, took the code and applied, all is working fine but the position is still left and little move due to 15pxl, cannot understand my mistake, I also took a chance of using <div>, but still the same. Also to note I have to use <pre> instead of <p> as i want my spaces to maintained as I want. It seems that Float:right is not getting applied.
Could not understand, Do we need to declared the size of the body to A4 size, so that it can get applied.
Need you advise, please guide

Below is my code in use:

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
</head
>
<body>
<style>
img {
float: right;
}
</style>
<div>
<pre>
<img alt="" src="data&colon;image/png;base64,iVBORw0KGgoAAAANSUhEUgAAAMoAAABMCAIAAACj7r86.............twPqZQAAAAAElFTkSuQmCC" style="height:45px;margin-left:15px;">
<b>
& HEAVY EQUIPMENTS CO. LTD </b>
Post Box No. ates
Tel. +559800
</pre>
</div>

</body>
</html>

Result of the created pdf is as below:

Re: Pdf creation failing to add the image

@MIA27 So the original image problem has been resolved.

Can you write CSS like this https://www.w3schools.com/cssref/tryit.php?filename=trycss_float

Re: Pdf creation failing to add the image

Thank you so much, open the website, selected the file and output selected the option Output Html Image, copied and pasted exactly and later added the height, its working.
The requirement is to put the image as a a floating right of the text on the top corner, but the code is not working as required, it stays as it is, the style does not get implement.

<img alt="" src="data&colon;image/png;base64,iVBORw0KGgoAAAANSUhEUgAAAMoAAABMCAIAAACj7r...........................
...... pMfXn7yw8tPfnoS+n8DABizLRtwPqZQAAAAAElFTkSuQmCC" style="float:right" height="40px" />

<pre>
<b>

Note: I shorted the code with ...... as it is very lengthy, so paste start and end to show you.

As all the code has to be in the compose screen, so cannot write separate CSS file.

Please guide what correction to be done to code to obtain the requirement.

Re: Pdf creation failing to add the image

Hey @MIA27

You will need to Convert the image to BASE64 and then add it to your HTML.

You can convert ImagetoBase64 using any option tool - e.g. https://base64.guru/converter/encode/image

example -

<div> <p>Taken from wikpedia</p> <img src="data&colon;image/png;base64, iVBORw0KGgoAAAANSUhEUgAAAAUA AAAFCAYAAACNbyblAAAAHElEQVQI12P4//8/w38GIAXDIBKE0DHxgljNBAAO 9TXL0Y4OHwAAAABJRU5ErkJggg==" alt="Red dot" /> </div>
