This is from the PDF and the images as they are.

Guys, I have a problem with the transparency of my varied images.
There is a video with the images and the formula I used to pull.
Can someone tell me where I'm going wrong.

But as I pull the image as I showed the code, it doesn't give me the option to manipulate the image. Use the PlanetPress "Duotone" feature

As explained in the post by Raphael Lalonde, your image need to be black and white (monochrome) to make use of the duotone feature.
the white will then become transparent and the black (or any other color you set it to be) will show.
in your case, your images are multi-color which will not work.
You only bet would be to use an image editor and set the background of your images to be the same as the background where you place them.

Good morning, if I convert all the images to PDF, and use the showpdf to vary the images, the transparency of the images could work.

&str := @(16,1,500)
showpdf(&str, 5,0,0)
