Hello,
We would like to insert a dynamic number of images into a document that looks like the following, using the Advanced Document Templating Plugin:
Entry 1:
Data for Entry 1
Image for Entry 1
Entry 2:
Data for Entry 2
Image for Entry 2
...
Entry n:
Data for Entry n
Image for Entry n
Is there a way to do this? It does seem possible to put a dynamic number of images all together using a list and the bookmark like so:
«[#list logo as logo]»
«[/#list]»
but is there a way to put in a dynamic number of images separately?

As far as I'm aware you need to have a static bookmark to reference each document. What you can do though is make 20+ bookmarks all called bookmark1, bookmark2, etc. and then in the smartservice dynamically generate a dictionary using the updatedictionary plugin function
Hey Danny,
Thanks for your answer. The images will be nested in a variable text section as well, so it will be difficult to create all these bookmarks. For example, if we had a list of companies with the images being the logo, we would want:
Walmart:
Number of Employees: 200,000
Headquarters: Bentonville, AR
Chipotle:
Number of Employees: 50,000
Headquarters: Newport Beach, CA
etc.
Hi
When we generate a word document with an image example: {logo: CONS!APP_IMAGE} works perfectly, but when I have more than one image in the template. For example logo2 and I call the smart service as follows {logo: CONS!APP_IMAGE, logo2: CON!APP_IMAGE2} I get the following error: freemarker.core.NonSequenceOrCollectionException: The value you try to list is an extended_hash+string (fr.opensagres.xdocreport.document.images.ByteArrayImageProvider wrapped into f.e.b.StringModel), thus you must specify two loop variables after the "as"; one for the key, and another for the value, like <#... as k, v>). ---- FTL stack trace ("~" means nesting-related): - Failed at: #list logo as logo [in template "fr.opensagres.xdocreport.document.docx.DocxReport@7f2dbfc!word/document.xml" at line 4, column 6773]
