Using BMP in the Ink control

Have inserted an ink control into a PowerBuilder app where I am able to capture and save the ink into a Sybase DB. Some users do not have a tablet to capture the ink, so I want to save a BMP into the DB and then display it in the ink control. I can save the BMP to the DB, but whenever I try to load the ink control with the blob, it errors out. If I load a blob which was created with the tablet, it works fine. The error I am getting is "Error calling external object function load at line XX". Any ideas as to what the problem is? When I save the ink to a blob from the ink control, does it do something it needs to interpret the blob when it loads it again? Thanks in advance for any ideas.
