Size and scale of TIFF graphics:
purposes because not all TIFF files contain that information and because it may be incorrect. FrameMaker
products allow users to set the dpi manually when importing the TIFF file. Once the graphic is imported,
FrameMaker products display the dpi information in the Object Properties dialog box.
QuickDraw PICT graphics on the Macintosh:
QuickDraw PICT image. Instead, these FrameMaker products treat the image as an opaque object that is
rendered by the operating system. After you import a QuickDraw PICT image, however, you can set an
explicit dpi with the Properties command on the Graphics menu. When you do so, a FrameMaker product
scales the image on the assumption that its original size was 72 dpi.
Normally, QuickDraw PICT graphics are treated as vector graphics, but you can use BitMapDpi to help
optimize printed output.
Angle of imported graphics:
with a nonzero value, the object is first flipped around the vertical axis and then rotated by the value
specified in Angle.
Methods of importing graphics
As mentioned previously, an imported graphic can be imported by reference or copied into the document.
In Macintosh and Windows versions, an imported graphic can be a subscriber or an embedded OLE object.
The following table shows how the structure of the ImportObject statement differs, depending on how the
graphic is imported. For an explanation of the facet syntax, see the appendix, "Facet Formats for
Graphics."
