Objective:
- Insert an image into a policy
Environment:
- PolicyStat Editor
Additional Information:
Some policies require images to display charts, diagrams, procedures, and other graphics. Images can first be added as attachments to the policy, then inserted at the desired location within the content. Alternatively, if an image is already available online (e.g. - has a web address where it can be viewed over the Internet), it can be inserted within the content.
Why is an image an attachment?
Building a policy on PolicyStat is creating a basic web page. For graphics to appear on a web page, they first need to be stored on an Internet server, just as is true for a PDF, spreadsheet, form, or any other attachment.
What are the requirements for image files?
PolicyStat supports uploading images using the .png, .gif, and .jpg formats.
What if the image already exists online?
