^{lastpage} not playing nice with ^preimage

[morglum]

Hi everyone,

Whenever I had a reference to ^{lastpage} , my  image added using ^preimage disappears, like in the minimal working  example (MWE) below.  Any idea how I could go to get both in the same report?

thanks

ods pdf file="c:\temp\report1.pdf" dpi=150 style=minimal ;
OPTIONS NODATE NONUMBER;
ods escapechar = '^'; 

Title1 j = l '^S={preimage="https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/thumb/9/96/Quebec_Nordiques_Logo.svg/200px-Quebec_Nordiques_Logo.svg.png" '
				j=r "Report";

footnote1 j=l "Generated today"
					j=r "total number of pages:  ^{lastpage} - graph is not shown";


*footnote1 j=l "Generated today"
					j=r "current page number ^{thispage}  -graph is shown ";


proc sort data= sashelp.class out=temp;; by sex height weight;
run;

data temp;
set temp;
by sex;
if first.sex then sex2= sex;
else sex2="";

weight_cat= floor(weight/10)*10;

endcomp;

quit;
ods pdf close;

Hi, There is (I remember) a Tech Support note about using {LASTPAGE} with ODS PDF and images. My memory is that it doesn't work (something about having an image and the ESCAPECHAR control were incompatible). I will try to find the link.

So there is a work around, thanks!

that being said, it would be nice if SAS could at least pop a warning...
