   pBITMAPHANDLE pLeadBitmapHandle = LeadBitmap.GetHandle(); 
 
   /* Load the bitmap, keeping the bits per pixel of the file */ 
   nRet = LeadBitmap.Load(MAKE_IMAGE_PATH(TEXT("OCR1.TIF")), 0, ORDER_BGR); 
   if(nRet !=SUCCESS) 
      return nRet; 
 
   LeadBitmap.ToggleCompression(); 
 
   nRet = LeadBitmap.Save (MAKE_IMAGE_PATH(TEXT("Result.BMP")), FILE_BMP, 24, 0, NULL); 
   if(nRet !=SUCCESS) 
      return nRet; 
 
   //free bitmap
