My suggestion is to save the image in a TIFF, JPG, or other format that VFP supports (not PDF). Store the image on the hard drive ... not in a VFP table. In the VFP table, create a field that stores the path+name of the image file. When you need to print an image on the report, you can place an image control on the report and just list the field name as the source.

Make sure you have print when logic on the image that has NOT EMPTY(fieldname) so it doesn't fail whenever the field is blank.
