- fileName
- A System.String containing the name of the image file to load.
- tile
- A Leadtools.LeadRect describing the tile/area of the image to load.
- bitsPerPixel
Resulting image pixel depth. Valid values are:
value meaning 0 Keep the original file's pixel depth (Do not convert). 1 to 8 The specified bits per pixel in the resulting image. 12 12 bits per pixel in the resulting image. 16 16 bits per pixel in the resulting image. 24 24 bits per pixel in the resulting image. 32 32 bits per pixel in the resulting image. 48 48 bits per pixel in the resulting image. 64 64 bits per pixel in the resulting image.

Remarks
This method loads a section of an image file (any format). The section begins is defined by tile rectangle.
LEADTOOLS will attempt to load corrupted files, so you can see at least a portion of the image. For these images, the load methods succeed, but LoadStatus will return an error code.
Use the CodecsLoadOptions class to set up other load options parameters before calling this method.
Support for 12 and 16-bit grayscale images is only available in the Document/Medical Imaging editions.
For supported formats, refer to Summary of All Supported Image File Formats.
LEADTOOLS loads all PDF files as Raster PDF uncompressed RasterImageFormat.RasPdf, regardless of the compression and color space used when saving the file.
The RasterCodecs class supports loading image files asynchronously using the LoadAsync methods. When calling any of these methods, the caller thread will not be blocked and the method will return instantly with an instance Leadtools.RasterImage that is in a loading status (RasterImage.IsLoading set to true). You should not use the other properties of this object while the object is in loading status.
When the RasterCodecs object finishes loading the image, the various properties of the Leadtools.RasterImage will be populated with the image information and data and the RasterImage.IsLoading property will be set to false.
It is recommended that you do not poll for the RasterImage.IsLoading property to check when the image is finished loaded, instead, subscribe to the LoadAsyncCompleted event to get notification on when the RasterCodecs.LoadAsync operation is completed and if any errors occurred.
The LoadAsyncCompleted event data will also contain the same object returned from LoadAsync so you do not have to keep the original object in your application.
