The FILEPDFOPTIONS structure provides information on loading PDF, PS or EPS files in LEADTOOLS.

The following functions make use of this structure:

LFileSettings::GetPDFOptions

LFileSettings::SetPDFOptions

Member

Description

uStructSize

Size of the structure. This must be set before passing this structure to the LEAD functions.

bUseLibFonts

Flag that indicates whether to use the library installed fonts or system fonts. Possible values are:

 

Value

Meaning

 

TRUE

Use the library installed fonts.

 

FALSE

Use the system fonts.

 

*This option affect pdf format when PDF_USE_PDFENGINE is set to use LtPdfEngine.dll, it still affects Postscript format.

nDisplayDepth

Resulting bitmap pixel depth. Possible values are:

 

Value

Meaning

 

1

1 bit per pixel in the resultant bitmap

 

4

4 bits per pixel in the resultant bitmap

 

8

8 bits per pixel in the resultant bitmap

 

24

24 bits per pixel in the resultant bitmap

 

*This option affect pdf format when PDF_USE_PDFENGINE is set to use LtPdfEngine.dll, it still affects Postscript format

nTextAlpha

Flag that indicates what type of font anti-aliasing to use. Possible values are:

 

Value

Meaning

 

1

Do not use font anti-aliasing.

 

2

Use 2-bit font anti-aliasing.

 

4

Use 4-bit font anti-aliasing.

 

 

*This option affect pdf format when PDF_USE_PDFENGINE is set to use LtPdfEngine.dll, it still affects Postscript format

nGraphicsAlpha

Flag that indicates what type of graphics anti-aliasing to use. Possible values are:

 

 

Value

Meaning

 

1

Do not use graphics anti-aliasing.

 

2

Use 2-bit graphics anti-aliasing.

 

4

Use 4-bit graphics anti-aliasing.

Comments

pFILEPDFOPTIONS is a pointer to a FILEPDFOPTIONS structure.

Use LFileSettings::SetPDFOptions and LFileSettings::GetPDFOptions to set and get the PDF, PS and EPS file options.

PDF, PS and EPS files have no physical width or height in pixels. You can use RASTERIZEDOCOPTIONS to control how the final document is rendered as a raster image. For more information, refer to RASTERIZEDOCOPTIONS.

Aliasing is the effect on all pixel devices where diagonal and curved lines have a zigzag appearance. As pixels get larger, this effect becomes more noticeable. Anti-aliasing refers to methods designed to decrease or eliminate this effect. This is done by shading the pixels along the borders of the affected lines.
