<concept id="GUID-56EA1BD6-DE61-5541-993A-2B60D1DE41AC" xml:lang="en"><title>Pictures</title><prolog><metadata><keywords/></metadata></prolog><conbody>
<p>A rich text object may contain any type of picture, derived from the <xref href="GUID-829D57CD-9659-347B-AAE9-5F0A0ECD555C.dita"><apiname>CPicture</apiname></xref> class
defined by the GDI. In a text object, a picture is represented by a single
special character. You insert and manipulate pictures using function calls
designed specially for that purpose.</p>
<p>Because rich text handles pictures at the abstract <codeph>CPicture</codeph> level,
there is no limit on the type of picture that can be included in rich text.
Pictures may be drawn using only the GDI. To insert a picture, the Symbian
platform application architecture is used to find available applications.
To edit a picture, the application architecture finds the application which
originally created it.</p>
