The basic strategy is to create a "dummy" bitmap cast member, whose contents are imported as "linked to file" (when you import the cast member graphic). It doesnÆt really matter what file you link to initially.
Then, when you want to print an image from disk, you load the image into your dummy cast-member using Lingo:
set the fileName of member X = "myimage.jpg"
Once the member is loaded utilizing DirectorÆs import plugins, then you can append the member to your PrintOMatic document, or simply print it directly:
print member X
