You may want to look at this post: https://communities.sas.com/t5/ODS-and-Base-Reporting/ODS-PDF-PRE-and-post-images-in-a-title-stateme...

There is some difference in the way the solution uses braces and brackets. Plus there might be a preference for POSTIMAGE with J=Right.

I am not sure what you want the H= 0.01 on the Footnote for but that might also be part of the issue if the image isn't appearing.

I have to assume that you have set ODS ESCAPECHAR='^'; somewhere as I don't see one. And that the image file exists in the stated location. If your SAS system runs on a server C: likely doesn't mean your harddrive.

I was missing 

ODS ESCAPECHAR='^';

in my code. 

Thanks!
