Syntax	long AnnGetPredefinedMetafile(short nType);

Remarks

(Document/Medical only) Retrieves a copy of the specified predefined metafile.

The AnnGetPredefinedMetafile method is valid only for the following object types:

Stamp (Including the Rubber Stamp tools)

Use the AnnGetPredefinedMetafile method to get the default metafiles for these objects. To reset a metafile to its original metafile, call the AnnSetMetafile method.

When the metafile handle is no longer needed, it must be freed using either DeleteMetaFile or DeleteEnhMetaFile Windows API functions.

Read the AnnPredefinedMetafileEnhanced property after calling this method to get a value that indicates whether the retrieved metafile is enhanced.
