Class PositionedImage

PositionedImage

Fixed position image anchored to a Paragraph . Unlike an InlineImage , a PositionedImage is not an Element . It does not have a parent or sibling Element . Instead, it is anchored to a Paragraph or ListItem , and is placed via offsets from that anchor. A PositionedImage has an ID that can be used to reference it.

Detailed documentation

getAs(contentType)

Return the data inside this object as a blob converted to the specified content type. This method adds the appropriate extension to the filename—for example, "myfile.pdf". However, it assumes that the part of the filename that follows the last period (if any) is an existing extension that should be replaced. Consequently, "ShoppingList.12.25.2014" becomes "ShoppingList.12.25.pdf".

To view the daily quotas for conversions, see Quotas for Google Services . Newly created Google Workspace domains might be temporarily subject to stricter quotas.

Parameters

Name Type Description
contentType
String The MIME type to convert to. For most blobs, 'application/pdf' is the only valid option. For images in BMP, GIF, JPEG, or PNG format, any of 'image/bmp' , 'image/gif' , 'image/jpeg' , or 'image/png' are also valid. For a Google Docs document, 'text/markdown' is also valid.
