L_LVKRN_API L_INT L_VecConvertFromWMF(hDC, pVector, hWMF)
Converts a Windows metafile (WMF) into a LEAD Technologies vector handle. When this function is completed, there are two copies of the drawing in memory: the WMF and the original LEAD vector. Freeing one will not affect the other. This function is available in the LEADTOOLS Vector Imaging Pro Toolkit.
Handle to the device context responsible for the conversion.
Pointer to the vector handle to be updated with the converted file.
Handle to the WMF to be converted.
Value | Meaning |
---|---|
SUCCESS | The function was successful. |
< 1 | An error occurred. Refer to Return Codes. |
This function updates information in the vector handle and copies the WMF drawing data into the LEAD bitmap.
