L_InvertedPageBitmap

#include "l_bitmap.h"

L_LTIMGCOR_API L_INT EXT_FUNCTION L_InvertedPageBitmap(pBitmap, bIsInverted, uFlags)

Detects whether the specified image (page) is inverted (white text and black background). Can invert it if it is not.

Parameters

pBITMAPHANDLE pBitmap

Pointer to the bitmap handle that references the bitmap.

L_BOOL * bIsInverted

Address of a variable to be updated with the detection result. Possible values are:

Value	Meaning
TRUE	The image is inverted.
FALSE	The image is not inverted.

L_UINT uFlags

Flags that indicate whether to invert the image and how to do it. Possible values are:

Value	Meaning
INVERTEDPAGE_PROCESS	[0x00000000] Invert the image.
INVERTEDPAGE_NOPROCESS	[0x00000001] Do not invert the image. Generally this flag is used to find whether the image is inverted.
INVERTEDPAGE_EXCLUDE_BORDER	[0x00000002] Excludes White or Black borders from the calculations.
INVERTEDPAGE_USE_ZONES	[0x00000004] An advanced version that is able to detect figure images before inverting them. This option is slower than the other options. This flag cannot be used with INVERTEDPAGE_EXCLUDE_BORDER.

Returns

Value	Meaning
SUCCESS	The function was successful.
< 1	An error occurred. Refer to Return Codes.

Comments

This function does not support signed data images. It returns the error code ERROR_SIGNED_DATA_NOT_SUPPORTED if a signed data image is passed to this function.

If uFlags contains INVERTEDPAGE_NOPROCESS, the function will update bIsInverted with the result, without inverting the image.

To update a status bar or detect a user interrupt during execution of this function, refer to L_SetStatusCallback.

This function does not support 12 and 16-bit grayscale and 48 and 64-bit color images. If the image is 12 and 16-bit grayscale and 48 and 64-bit color, the function will not return an error.

This function does not support 32-bit grayscale images. It returns the error code ERROR_GRAY32_UNSUPPORTED if a 32-bit grayscale image is passed to this function.
