importing graphics in xml file

[Heiko Haida]

Hi Fred, 

there is a dpi option. 

Example: 

dpi="300" 

(height and width are used to specify the frame that contains the
graphics in FM.) 

The structured application developers guide says: 

"dpi corresponds to the dpi property and indicates how to scale an
imported graphic object. The software ignores this attribute if it finds
a value for the impsize attribute. It produces only one of the
attributes--dpi or impsize. The value of the dpi attribute is a number.
If not supplied, the value is 72." 

Best regards -

I am using an automated process to create the xml files that assumes all the refer
 enced
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?
