Importing an image log into gINT

Question

I have an unwrapped televiewer and 3D core image logs from WellCAD that I would like to import into a gINT log at the proper scale so the depths match. How do I do this? I've tried using bitmap symbols but they add black lines to the top and bottom of the image throwing off the depth and they are also discreet images that plot on a single page rather than log data that scales to depth.

The issue with the black lines is related to a single build of gINT that had an issue with bitmap symbols. It was 8.30.03.77. You will need a later version of gINT installed. 
 The technique for showing images at depth requires multiple pieces. 
 1. In INPUT setup a point id depth table with Depth (field type double), Bottom (field type double), Image field (field type bitmap) 
 2. In REPORT DESIGN Setup a bitmap symbol vs depth body entity 
 It needs to have the depth field match the table you created, the bottom field match the field you created, and the image field referenced in a project symbol function ( see example below) 
 INPUT

REPORT DESIGN

A photo log report can be downloaded from here as an example of this

Hi Roger, 
I am not sure if this is what is causing the issue, but I realize looking at my screen shot of the report design area, I left out override width. You should put an override width to be the width of the column space for example if this is going into a column that is 0.5 wide put 0.5 in the override width. The Override Height should stay blank..

To create a bitmap symbol vs depth see below. 
 
 There is a free report with this concept setup call Photo log

General Purpose Log Reports

Log reports - usually boring logs - can be designed to present environmental, geotechnical, or a mixture of other kinds of data. 
 See Using gINT Downloaded Examples for instructions.

In report design you can see the entity ..Also see above thread for ideas on setting up the table to reference the photos in an input table.
