Can you print a picture in quiz?

Hi Abraham,

It is possible, but very messy.  I have done this type of thing using PCL on
a HP Laserjet.  It will work on any PCL compatible printer.  You need the
picture loaded to a cartridge or SIM card as a font.  Turn that font on and
print characters which will be replaced by the picture.  You will certainly
need a PCL manual to do this.  I used PCL to make Quiz reports "pretty"
before Impromptu was around.  It is a good way to use Quiz for large and
small font, bold, underline and pictures on one report. 

There is a company called Red Titan here in the UK that scans images onto
font cartridges and SIM cards.  

Failing that you have the keyboard characters to make a crude picture.

I hope this helps.
