You can do this quite easily. First, to make life even easier, ensure
that the file name for each signature is the same as the person's last
name. For example, Smith.jpg, Jones.jpg, etc. Also, the following
assumes that the images are in the same folder as your templaet:
1. Use a text frame instead of a graphic frame.
2. Write the following rule:
SigPic = CreateResource(Field("Lname") + ".jpg","graphic",true);
if(SigPic.exists)
return '<graphic resource="' + SigPic + '">';
else
return '<f name="name of script font">' + Field("Fname")
+ ' ' + Field("Lname");
3. Make sure "Treat returned strings as tagged text" is checked in the
rule editor.
