Hi Ed,
instead of using "impsize" you could try "dpi". This attribute would at least respect the ratio of the imported graphic file. The definition of "dpi" in the attlist is: dpi NMTOKEN #IMPLIED <!--ignored if impsize specified--> (as described in the STRUCTURE APPLICATION DEVELOPER GUIDE) It would also produce a kind of scaling: A graphic file originally designed for 300 dpi would have a smaller representation if "dpi" is set to 400. Of course, all files should have equivalent resolution settings. I don't know how FrameMaker will handle a dpi-related "size" with a PDF, though... I have only used this for tiff files. Good luck - Tino H.

I can add impsize attributes to all of the image tags, but I'll have to be careful to get the width-height ratio correct. > > Question: Is there a scale attribute to define and use or a similar mechanism.
