Cognos Images

Hello all, I am having issues getting the images to work.  I created a Virtual directory on the IIS server with webdav enable and authored the permissions like I've found on the internet.  I can get the image to show in html, but it doesn't work on PDF or Excel.

Any thoughts on this?

Also, where does "../images/" lead to?  I have yet to figure that out.

I would think that "../images/" leads to <CA Install>\images.  But that wouldn't work because images should be in <CA Install>\webcontent\bi\images.

I remember Cognos having trouble with images years ago.  I'm not 100% certain how (or if) I completely fixed it.  But it seems that presenting images in PDF and XLSX outputs is what the new Image Service is all about.  Have you tried that?
