 * I want to put a logo (PNG) in the PDF. Have used the following code for this.
 * <img src=”link to the file” (I can’t paste the whole code because then it shows
   the file instead of the code.)
 * Unfortunately it doesn’t work.

 * Hi ponyskp!
 * I’m using <img src=”[signature]”… This code refers to the shortcode for the signature
   addon for CF7.
 * So there is no link, but a shortcode and it should work according to the addon
   maker

 * I had the same problem with the pictures. I didn’t understand how to place them
   correctly into the document, because the discription is a bit confusing – i did
   not understand it.
 * In my case, the gray temporary image file was always included in the document.
   So i found that image and replaced it by the image i wanted to use.
 * This is how it works in my case:
    (ONLY WORKING IF YOU NEED JUST ONE PICTURE)
 * HTML:
    `<img src="[url-file]" alt="Title of the Image"/>`
 * Then find the temporary image file in the Plugin directory:
    `www.yourdomain.
   de/wp-content/plugins/send-pdf-for-contact-form-7/images/temporary-image.jpg`
 * Replace this file by the one you want to use in the PDF – document.

 * Hi janniskuehl,
 * Thnx for your response!
 * The problem is that the image will be different every time. It is a signature
   that the customer places on my website and I want it in the PDF. So I can’t look
   up one filename in the plugin directory, because the name will be different every
   time.

 * Hey bryancamphens,
 * I tried to reproduce your szenario and tried to get a solution for more than 
   one hour. I was not able to make it work, too. I tried to place images uploaded
   by user as you explaned, but it doesn’t work. This was my way to try it:
 * 1. Added a file – field in the contact form:
    `[file* filename]` The Tag [filename]
   then appears in the Plugins Amin – Page right above the html-area where you can
   style the document.
 * 2. Wrote this in the input field on the plugin – page, where the plugin says 
   you should write it in (also right above the html – area on the right side)
    `[
   filename]`
 * 3. Wrote this in the html – textarea:
    `<img src="[filename]" alt="title"/>`
 * In the Preview, the “Temporary Image” is shown. In the PDF – Dokument, that is
   send by the Plugin, there ist a little black “X” at the position of the image.
 * I wrote this on the inventors – Tutorial – Page. if i get an answer on that, 
   i will post it here for you, If you find a solution before i do, please write
   it down here ;).
