WPF Annotation SDK: Annotation (Image Mark-up) For WPF.

Click here to run the LEADTOOLS demos using Microsoft ClickOnce Technology.

LEADTOOLS offers a variety of annotation (document mark-up) objects that can be added to document, grayscale and color images in a presentation layer. With LEADTOOLS for WPF, users can draw, reposition and change the attributes (color, size, etc.) of any of the 20+ built-in objects types. From simple objects such as lines and rectangles to an enhanced redaction object that can restore parts of an image that were blacked out. When combined with annotation security, the redaction objects provide a means of granting user-level access to parts of an image.

Annotation objects can be stored as a separate object presentation layer or can be burned or embedded into the image data. LEADTOOLS allows you to read or write annotations as an external XML file or as LEAD, DICOM or Wang annotation tags within a TIFF file. Also, you can export the annotations objects to a standard Windows metafile. The WPF annotation features provided in LEADTOOLS can be used in any WPF application where image markup is required.
