Hello,

Is there any chance to add automatically an image from row to pdf in Creator?

Hey @ultimatum

Check out the FAQ "Can I map images to a PDF?" in this Help Article:

Document Builder: Generate documents from row data | Smartsheet Learning Center

https://help.smartsheet.com/articles/2481651-generate-documents-from-sheet-data

Prerequisites: Prepare your sheet. Create a fillable PDF. Map rows in your sheet to your fillable PDF. 

You can map images in cells to image fields in a PDF, but make sure the field on the PDF is an image field, otherwise you’ll get the image filename when you generate the document.

Cheers,

Genevieve

I added image field in PDF but can't find option to add pictures from row attachement, any suggestions?

Hi @ultimatum

Thank you for the screen capture, this helps! For the instructions above, the attachment would need to be an image inside a cell in a column in your sheet, not an attachment on the side of the row.

See:

Include a picture or other image in your sheet | Smartsheet Learning Center

https://help.smartsheet.com/articles/2262003-adding-images-to-grid-view

Images in the grid can be useful for many types of sheets, including team contact lists, manufacturer parts lists, and real estate lists.

Does that make sense?

Cheers,

Genevieve

It does not solve my problem because the photos are attached via the form as an attachment.

Hi @ultimatum

There currently isn't a way to use the attachment on the side of the row and insert that into a PDF as an image in a field. The image would need to be in the cell of a column instead, to then map it to a PDF in Document Builder.
