Introduction

The LEADTOOLS Class Library provides C++ classes to let you incorporate image compression, file format support, and image processing into your Windows applications.

Raster Content format was defined for use for color and grayscale fax as part of the RFC-2301, File Format for Internet Fax. The Mixed Raster Content mode (T.44) enables different coding methods and resolutions to be used within a single page by defining a 3-layer image model for structuring and combining the scanned image data. The image is segmented and each segment assigned a type based on the number of colors used in that segment. Segments can be combined and compressed using different compression schemes to create a file that balances quality with compression.

This help file contains only the documentation for the functions in the LEADTOOLS MRC Class Library.

The Class Library comes in a WIN32 edition and supports 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

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 LSegment class. The LSegment class is derived from LBase and provides the ability to work with Mixed Raster Content files. The class enables the user to produce MRC images, save to MRC files, and load from MRC files. This help file documents this class.
