The Leadtools.Codecs namespace contains classes for loading/saving image data to the multiple image file formats supported by LEADTOOLS. It also contains classes that support loading/saving non-image data such tags, markers, comments and extensions.
The RasterCodecs class is the main gateway to all the file format features. It allows you to load and save images from disk or memory.
Key Features:
- Get information about the image before loading it.
- Handle file-format-specific information, such as the page number or physical resolution.
- Support for both low and high level handling of any feature. For example:
- call a version of the RasterCodecs.Load overloaded method to load all the pages from a disk file into aRasterImage object.
- use various low level events to monitor the image scanlines as they are being loaded
- override the operation with your own data, or cancel it all together.
