Subject:RE: Question: Making images conditional in Word From:"Dan Goldstein" <DGoldstein -at- riverainmedical -dot- com> To:<techwr-l -at- lists -dot- techwr-l -dot- com> Date:Wed, 28 May 2008 14:38:00 -0400
Conditional, side-by-side images work fine for me - *not* in columns,
just side by side. Each image is in a different character style, and the
template determines which style is hidden and which is not. When the
left-hand image's character style is hidden, the right-hand image
justifies itself leftward (according to the paragraph style). Does this
work for you?
