Introduction

The LEADTOOLS API provides dynamic link library (DLL) functions to let you incorporate image compression, file format support, and image processing into your Windows applications.

The toolkit comes in WIN32 editions so that it can support development of software applications for any of the following environments:

Windows 3.x NT
Windows 4.x NT
Windows 95
Windows 98
Windows 2000
Windows ME
Windows XP
Windows CE

image\sqrblit.gif LEADTOOLS support for Mixed Raster Content format, defined for use for color and grayscale fax as part of the T44 standard, is provided by the LEADTOOLS Mixed Raster Content (MRC) API. Documentation for this API can be found in the LEADTOOLS MRC API help file, Ltmrcdlln.chm in the LEADTOOLS\Help directory.

Please note that due to the large size of the files that contain the LEADTOOLS manuals, these files are no longer included in the setup. Instead, print documentation can be downloaded from our website at http://support.leadtools.com/SupportPortal/DesktopDefault.aspx?tabindex=3&tabid=27.
