If you need 12 or 16 bit grayscale or 48 and 64 bit color support, check out one of the Medical Imaging products.

Printing Support

Printing is just as easy as displaying an image because can use the same code to print that you use to display an image. You control the size and location that the image should be printed. Additionally, Windows GDI functions can be used in conjunction with LEADTOOLS printing providing the flexibility to print text and multiple images on the same page.

Imaging Common Dialogs

LEADTOOLS Imaging Common Dialog boxes save hours of tedious programming and provide your end-users with a consistent look and feel by extending Windows common dialogs to provide imaging specific capabilities. The Common Dialogs provide professional imaging common dialogs for image processing, conversion and effects.

Screen Capture

Powerful screen capture functionality that can capture resources from files, menus, windows, clients, areas of screen in different shapes, etc. The screen capture tools are extremely useful, especially for documentation and provide another means of image input.

Database Support

Provides both high level and low level database support including the ability to bind to a VB data control, an OLEDB interface, an ODBC interface and low level functions to load and save images to memory.

Internet Support

Several different levels of Internet support including ASP.NET (AJAX) and Web Forms, objects that can be packaged into CAB files, objects that can be created on a web server, functions to load images from a URL or memory stream, controls for HTTP and FTP support, control to parse files uploaded to a web server and controls to create powerful client server applications that send remote procedure calls via TCP/IP.

WPF Support

LEADTOOLS provides interoperation support between LEADTOOLS and Windows Presentation Foundation (WPF) images. Developers can harness the robust power of LEADTOOLS extensive file format support and image processing features, while taking advantage of the newest UI development features provided by WPF.
