## Adding images

This section shows how to add images to WebHelp. For that, follow the simple procedure given.

- Put the images in a subdirectory of your source file directory. For example `docsrc/images`.

- Then refer to those images from your docbook document.

  Following image is from webhelp/docsrs/images/sample.jpg. The docbook code is shown below.

  Example 1. Example code for adding images. Note down the relative path used

      <figure>
        <title>Sample</title>
        <mediaobject>
          <imageobject>
            <imagedata fileref="images/sample.jpg" format="JPG"/>
          </imageobject>
        </mediaobject>
      </figure>

- The `build.properties` file controls what directories are copied over from the source tree to the output tree:

      # If your document has image directories that need to be copied
      # to the output directory, you can list patterns here.
      # See the Ant documentation for fileset for documentation
      # on patterns.
      input-images-dirs=images/**,figures/**,graphics/**
