When you say "set the image data of an image" do you mean the  
imageData property. I don't think this will work with jpeg data. The  
imageData format is an iternal pixel by pixel format used by Rev with  
no compression. Instead, try something like this:

   put base64Decode(theattachment) into image "myImage"
