Add pictures in PDF files

[WttBe]

Hi,

It would be really nice to have the opportunity to add pictures (.jpg, .png, etc.) to pdf files. Do you think it could be added to your software in the future?

Thanks anyway for the useful software!

Hello,

yes, I am planning to create editing plugin, which can insert images. However, workaround exists:

• Create PDF from image portfolio: by using PDF4QT DocPage Organizer. Via Insert menu, select Insert Image and insert all images. When all images are inserted, you can use command United Document from Make menu (F5 shortcut) and then PDF document with all images is created (each image has it's own page)
• Insert image by hacking Signature plugin: another option, if you want to place image onto existing page, you can enable Signature plugin trough Plugins tab in Options dialog (shortcut: Ctrl + K). Then, start activate signature creation, insert image via tool and when you are finished, click Sign Electronically. SVG images should work, I will also add support for PNG/JPEG.

I hope it will help!

Hello,

Thanks for your answer! Wonderful, I'll use one of these alternatives while waiting for the next plugin.

Thank you for having this option! Is this possible to do with the current version?
I seem to be having problems trying to activate a signature creation or inserting image via tool. Appreciate your help!

Hello @notshi , yes, it is possible. I assumed you turned on Signature plugin and restarted the application.

Hi @JakubMelka, yes, it was enabled by default (there was already a tick on factory settings).

Upon restarting the application, this is what I see.

I'm currently running PDF4QT Viewer Profi 1.3.5 on Manjaro Linux.

Hello @notshi , this is not plugin, this is signature verification, it enables verification of existing signatures in PDF document. Please go to menu 'Tools', hit 'Options...' and check this:

@JakubMelka Amazing ~ thank you very much! This has solved it for me and i can add svg images to the PDF seamlessly now.

Would it be possible to change the theme or colours of the icons?
At the moment, it looks dark and hard to see.

I think it overtakes system settings - try to set light theme to your system.

Hello @WttBe, new plugin Editor now can add images (also svg images, text, paths etc.)

Hi @JakubMelka, Thanks a lot! I'll take a look at it!
