Mark,

I'm working on a project to print images from the /400.  This *should*
be

easy nowadays, where GUI is the norm insterad of the exception, but 
there seems to be a dearth of easy to follow information in this area.

I recently asked a similar thing, when a client of mine inquired about
adding thumbnail images of products to their invoices.

In short, you can't use *SCS but will need *AFPDS (not *IPDS) and *AFPDS
will require PSF/400.  Starting in V5R3, the AFPRSC() keyword was added
so you can dynamically add AFP resources to printed output.  One of the
types supported by AFPRSC() are TIFF images, according to the DDS
manual.

I haven't gone down this road yet, so don't ask for help.  I'm just
pointing you in the general direction here.

You can also use various third party solutions, such as Electronic Forms
from http://www.rjssoftware.com
