How can we use images in Visualforce generated PDFs which are not static resources?
Hii All,
I'm trying to generate a Visualforce PDF (renderAs) with a variety of images from different sources includes Salesforce Attachments and Documents, as well as third party sites. So far I've only been able to display images stored as static resources, or stored in zipped static resources.
How to use images which are not stored as static resources in Visualforce-generated PDFs?

Hi Tanu,
The trick is that any external URLs you want Salesforce to make a HTTP(s) call to need to be defined under Setup > Security Controls > Remote Site Settings. Make sure the protocol (HTTP vs HTTPS) matches the image link!
Hope this helps you.
Thanks
