images Not Displaying Properly on Report

[razorking]

I have a report that is a label. It is designed to have two columns and ten rows of data. There is an image that is embedded on the report and should show up on each label. The image is a jpg. For some reason the image does not appear on each label. The image shows up on 11 of the twenty labels - in print preview and on the printed sheet. Not sure what I am missing...?

You didn't mention which version of Access. This is an issue with Access 2016...

If that is not the issue then how are you defining the path? Are they all .JPG's?

Hello,

This is not the Access 2016 issue, I have already come across that in a different scenario. This would be with the 2010 variety. It's simply a matter of the image not displaying on each label as it would be expected to.

A couple things - I tried it as a bitmap and it works normally. I tried making the jpg smaller and that seems to work as well - but still testing that theory - so not 100% convinced that will do the trick, but am hopeful.

not sure if this is connected. I had a similar thing yesterday.

I had a form with linked images of .png files. I developed in A2003, and the client uses A2013. On the client's machine they would not display. When I tried to open the report directly (rather than with a button click on a form) I got a message that Access could not open the graphic file (too big - it was only 82Kb)

As a result, I changed the .pgn to a .bmp (183Kb), and it then worked on the client's machine.

It looks like it was the file size. Kind of an odd thing, no error message or anything. It was just a single image on the report but, since it was actually labels it would need to print twenty instances of the image per page, one for each label. The original file size was 617 KB and it would only print preview and print the image on 11 of the 20 labels. Once I reduced the file size to 585 KB it showed/printed for each of the 20 labels - this was with the original jpg by the way.
