Placing the Image in a Format

The message structure below places a graphic field in a format.

You can have up to 100 graphic images. The graphic record can be placed in a format data stream anywhere following the format header record.

Syntax

G##, ROW, COLUMN p

NOTE: Graphics are counted as fields, just like text or bar code fields. When determining the number of fields in your format, count each graphic as a separate field.

If graphic fields overlap with other fields in the data stream, the last field in the data stream will dominate.
