Hi Bob

A "document" in the context of the Document Store refers to a schemaless data structure, similar to a database record. If you want to store PNG files in a database, the best way is probably doing it in a BLOB type column. Doing it in JSON would not offer any benefits and would be more complicated and less efficient.
