How To: Save to an Image File (TIFF, JPEG, GIF, PNG, etc.)

LEADTOOLS ePrint 5 Professional lets you save raster images such as TIFF, JPEG, GIF, PNG, non-searchable PDF, BMP, etc.

The example below describes how to save an image file to a raster format (in this case, non-searchable PDF).

To save a file as a raster PDF file type:

1.

Select the "Image Formats" item from the File type list.

2.

Select the "PDF (*.pdf)" item from the Save as list.

3.

Click the Options button to show the Raster Images Files Save As Options dialog.

4.

Select the desired Color Depth. If you are not certain which to use, select "True Color (24 bit)".

 

Note: Color Depth represents the bits per pixel, which is the number of bits that will be used to store information about a particular pixel in the image. The bits per pixel correlates to how many unique values of color levels are available to describe the pixel. When using 24 bits per pixel, 16.7 million colors are available and this format is least likely to compromise the output quality.

5.

Now click the OK button to save the options.

6.

Now click the Save button to save raster PDF file.

Note: Multi-page gif files are created as animated gifs and are not viewable in applications that only display static gifs.
