   Hi Ingo. thank you very much, the transparent bmp files did the trick when using the setimagemask

I added this line just before the .fitimage call: 
Call .SetImageMask(0.9, 0.9, 0.9, 1, 1, 1)
Call .FitImage(x,y,width,height, 1, 1, 0)

	Cheers, Ingo

	I am working with quick pdf 17. Working/printing images works fine. But not I want to print a signature.png file (which is transparent) on top of text that is generated and printed on the pdf page. The result should look like a company/stamp signature on top of the text. I tried .SetPNGTransparencyColor(255 / 256, 255 / 256, 255 / 256)' and .SetImageMask(1, 1, 1, 0.1, 0.1, 0.1) but is does not change... the image is printed with a fixed white background and destroying the text. I use the following simple code: Call .AddImageFromFile(FileNameOfImageFile, 0) Call .SetPNGTransparencyColor(255 / 256, 255 / 256, 255 / 256) Call .FitImage(topX, topY, SizeWidth, SizeHeight, 1, 1, 0)
