# How Do I Embed Images into HTML Emails Sent from Lasernet?

You can create an email in Lasernet via an HTML/XHTML form or by populating the MailBodyHTML JobInfo through a script.

### **Image Source**

Three options are available when choosing the image source:

#### Local

An image from a local drive or network. This option will only display for recipients with access to the following location:

`img src="smiley.gif"alt="Smiley face">`

`img src="/subfolder/smiley.gif" alt="Smiley face">`

`img src="c:\images\smiley.gif" alt="Smiley face">`

#### Remote

A remote image from the Internet or Intranet. This is the most common way to embed images in an email.

Location:

`<img src="http://server/images/smiley.gif" alt="Smiley face" />`

`<img src="http://server.com/images/smiley.gif" alt="Smiley face" />`

#### Embedded

Base64 encoded image data.

> [!NOTE]
> Note
> 
> Not all browsers/email clients have access to this. The image will need to be converted using an external tool or via the HTML/XHTML form engine.

Location:

`<img src="image/png;base64,iVBORw0KGgoAAAANSUhEUgAAAM0AAAD NCAMAAAAsYgRbAAAAGXRFWHRTb2Z0d2FyZQBBZG9iZSBJbWFnZVJlYWR5c cllPAAAABJQTFRF3NSmzMewPxIG//ncJEJsldTou1jHgAAAARBJREFUeNrs2EEK gCAQBVDLuv+V20dENbMY831wKz4Y/VHb/5RGQ0NDQ0NDQ0NDQ0NDQ0NDQ 0NDQ0NDQ0NDQ0NDQ0NDQ0NDQ0PzMWtyaGhoaGhoaGhoaGhoaGhoxtb0QGho aGhoaGhoaGhoaGhoaMbRLEvv50VTQ9OTQ5OpyZ01GpM2g0bfmDQaL7S+ofFC6x v3ZpxJiywakzbvd9r3RWPS9I2+MWk0+kbf0Hih9Y17U0nTHibrDDQ0NDQ0NDQ0 NDQ0NDQ0NTXbRSL/AK72o6GhoaGhoRlL8951vwsNDQ0NDQ1NDc0WyHtDTEhD Q0NDQ0NTS5MdGhoaGhoaGhoaGhoaGhoaGhoaGhoaGposzSHAAErMwwQ2HwRQ AAAAAElFTkSuQmCC" alt="Beastie" />`

Once the image source has been chosen, the image can be added to the email using one of the following two ways:

### HTML/XHTML Output Form

HTML/XHTML output format requires the XML Output licence option (contact our sales department if you need this functionality). Once this is done, follow these steps:

1. Set the **Inputs** and **Output** formats within the **Form Properties** window:

1. Open the **Template** tab on the form and, using the **Image** tool, insert images from a local file or a remote URL.

Images can also be pasted into the form and encoded as **Base64**.

1. Once the image is inserted into the template, open **Sheet Options** and select the **Combining** tab to embed the data into the JobInfo MailBodyHTML.
2. Click the Sheet Embedding tab, click the **JobInfo** radio button, and ensure **MailBodyHTML** is selected in the dropdown menu
3. Click **Apply** and then **OK**.

### Script/JobInfo

The following is a script example applied on an Enter modifier on a Mail Output module:

```plaintext
var x= "html><body>

<h1>Email Test</h1>

<img src="https://www.efstechnology.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/05/EFS-Interview-Fintech.png"/>

</body></html>" setJobInfo("MailBodyHTML",x)
```

The email produced using the above script:
