I am attempting to use to get the INCLUDEPICTURE working with a mail merge and was wondering if you had any suggestions, or if my only option is to convert everything to the <<Image:Item>> that works fine for me, I just have a ton of docs and a ton of merged items, and would prefer not to convert them all if possible.
Basically, we are using this tag in our Word template { INCLUDEPICTURE "{ MERGEFIELD filepath \* MERGEFORMAT }" \* MERGEFORMAT \d }. This approach works fine using the Office COM stuff, rendering the proper NEW image, the catch was we had to tell Office to ActiveDocument.Fields.Update() before the Word merge for the images to update.
I was hoping this was going to work the same with Spire.Doc however when we run the mail merge it is replaced with { INCLUDEPICTURE "filepath" \* MERGEFORMAT \d } perfect, however the doc still shows the original image that it was bound to and not the new filepath. I was hoping the document.IsUpdateFields would also update these INCLUDEPICTURE items but it doesn't. Any idea how I might be able to auto refresh these images or am I stuck converting all my merge items to <<Image:filepath>>?
Thanks for the help!
