[sword-devel] Graphic in GenBook?

[sword-devel@crosswire.org]

Hi, Tory & All

I created a little genBook encoded in OSIS (mainly by copying what is in the
OSIS manual).

I put in the line

    <figure src="myimage.jpg" />

in my genBook and have the jpg in the same directory as the other file i.e.
sample.dbt, sample.idx and sample.dat.

Xml2gdbs.exe finished sucessfully. I can see the new genBook inside Sword
(for windows) but the bitmap does not show up.

Can anyone see what is wrong. Does anyone has a piece of encoded text with
bitmap in it so I can learn from the example?

Thanks in advance.

In Christ
