Text of an image

[Eric Chatonet]

Bonsoir Richard,

I'm always worried when somebody, even you :-), says: sometimes it  
works and sometimes it does not ;-)
Does not sound good...
I have not experienced what you say:
As soon as imageData are related to current display (i.e. related to  
the size of the image object you put in), it always worked for me.
Can you be more specific?
