importing graphics in xml file

[Fred Wersan]

I am importing xml files into structured framemaker 8 and these files 
reference graphics using the following syntax:

<yfigure file = "../somefile.png" impsize = "3.183in 1.1in" impby = 
"ref" sideways = "0" impang = "0.000" xoffset = "0.080in" yoffset = 
"0.0in" position = "runin" align = "aright"    cropped = "0" float = "0" 
width = "3.25in" height = "3.1in" angle = "0.000" bloffset = "0.000in" 
nsoffset = "0.000in"/>

I think I got this syntax by exporting a file and seeing what framemaker 
created.

I am using an automated process to create the xml files that assumes all 
the referenced graphics files are the same size. However, it turns out 
that they really aren't. The result is that graphics files that don't 
fit impsize = "3.183in 3.1in" get distorted.

What I would really like is to just say - import this file at such and 
such a resolution and let it size automatically.

Does anyone know if there is a different syntax that can specify the 
resolution instead of the dimensions of the imported graphic?
