Sean,
Thanks, I was able to get those and provide my

I don't see it documented in the V7R1 InfoCenter for CPYSPLF, but these two links reference the feature:
http://www-912.ibm.com/s_dir/SLKBase.nsf/be466e84249e5ef286257742004a40e4/86dd3e9145d160c286257888006ef8a1?OpenDocument

To convert the spooled files to Portable Document Format (PDF), you must download and apply 7.1 PTF SI43471 or a superseding PTF and you must also install licensed program 5770TS1, *BASE and Option 1, "IBM Transform Services for i" and "Transforms - AFP to PDF Transform"

Jorge,
I am curious about your example CPYSPLF command.

Attempting same on my system, however, I am not able
to specify *TOSTMF as the TOFILE:

Value '*TOSTMF ' for parameter TOFILE not a valid name.

In addition, I do not see the TOSTMF or WSCST parameters ???

P.S. System is V7R1M0

I found that I can Copy a spool file to a GIF image using a *WSCST object with V7R1 very easily.

CPYSPLF FILE(QSYSPRT) TOFILE(*TOSTMF) SPLNBR(*LAST) TOSTMF('/home/jmerinoh/mygif.gif') WSCST(QWPGIF).

It also can be used to create TIFF images with QWPTIFFPB and QWPTIFFG4 *WSCST objects as well.

I'm still would be interested on an example to create an image QIMGCVTI or QimgCvtImg APIs if possible, so I'm looking to other Image Types such BMP or JPG.

Thanks all.
Jorge

Hi guys!

I have a little project to generate text images and attach them into emails. So my options are pretty narrowed down to:

a) Have ILE RPG to write an image stream directly into IFS.

b) Write an Spool File and convert it to an image.

So, I was looking into the possibilities of QIMGCVTI/QimgCvtImg API, does somebody have an example to share? Or any suggestion?

Thank you all.
Jorge
