External images in Smartforms

Hi SAP experts,

the situation is as follows: in the company here we have SAP 4.6c and are starting to develop Smartforms instead of SAPScripts. A SAPScript form needed to be changed so we desided to convert it to Smartforms at the same time. The only problem is that the form also included images from our file server (it is not a SAP server and it is not a possibility to include all the images into SAP so no "Use SE78" solutions are possible). The way the SAPScript worked was to create a HEX table that was then printed out line by line to the form. Is there a way to mimic this in Smartforms or is there an other way (again, please don't say "Use SE78" because it is not an option).

Thanks in advance

The old SAPScript uses a function that converts the image to an ITF hex table and then uses the function WRITE_FORM_LINES. I tried to find a way for Smartforms to do the same as the WRITE_FORM_LINES function but have yet to find a way for it to write in binary mode and not print the hex values as characters. Anyone know of a way to do this.

Thanks in advance
