Bending a decal

[Anonymous]

Hi,
I'm trying to model a packaging using sheet metal.
I applied a decal to the main feature, then I applied bends.
I get the attached result.
The behavior on bends is not acceptable. Is there something I can do
to have decal appearing on bends too, as it should be?

Thanks.

P.S. Applying the dacal after bending is worse...

That was not completely exact.

I succeded to make it work, but I had to make the image the exact size
of the flange. If bigger, it doesn't work.

Furthermore, I found how to achieve good quality in decals without
using embedded images in MSWord files. I share it hoping it helps
other people.

I had to scale the image to the right dimension AND to a resolution of
96 dpi, that seems to be the resolution to which images are inserted
into Inventor.

I used to insert bigger images and then to scale them within the
sketch, but this give an awful quality result.
