Hi,I have a problem with inline images in rich text fields. These images has just simply copy pasted there and they are not attachments. I’m trying to export them somehow out but i can’t get it to work. Do you have any clue how to do this or is this even possible?
I have tried to use DXL to exporting it in base64 and then decoding it back, but this only seems to work with some pictures in database, but not the embedded images in rich text fields.
But it isn’t possible to decode it with base64 between and based on the length of the text, this isn’t what I’m looking for.
I can also see $File Item, which also seems to be base64 encoded but there isn’t any picture tags in it.
If you have any other solutions than DXL and base64 for this, tell me so i wont waste my time on this. I’m really a beginner using Lotus, so if you can explain this in really simple way
Please check out the article on our website which clearly explains how to decode the Notes bitmap link and extract the image from the corresponding $FILE object:
Sample code has also been included with the article.
… I wouldn’t say DXL programming is for beginners, as you describe yourself If you just want to get some inline images out of some messages, you can use List Fields, which will let you save any inline image to disk. Please note that List Fields is a third-party solution!
I have experience in programming, but mainly in C# and C++. It’s only the Lotus Notes and how it works what is new to me So if there is any way that I can do this without third-party solutions I would do it on my own, just for the experience, but if this is the only way to do this, I’ll look in to this solution.Thank you for the tip!
