Raster Imaging SDK:
LEADTOOLS Raster Products Overview
LEAD offers several Raster Imaging programming SDKs with support for over 150 file formats including TIFF, JPG, PDF, and GIF using various compression schemes like JPEG, JPEG2000, LZW, CCITT G3/G4, and CMP. Scan, capture, 200+ image processing filters, high speed display (resize, rotate, quality controls), and much more.
With LEADTOOLS Raster Imaging, your clients will think that you have spent years becoming an expert in the field of imaging. Whether it is image conversion, TWAIN scanning, screen capture, display and transition effects, image processing, color conversion, printing, compression, database image support, Internet image support, etc, you will have a quick answer - "Yes, I can do that with LEADTOOLS!"

Summary of LEADTOOLS Raster Imaging Technology LEAD's basic Raster Imaging functionality includes:
- File Format Support - Read, write and convert image files in over 150 of the most popular standard image formats, including JPEG, GIF*, TIFF (including G3/G4, LZW*, CMYK, JTIF, many more), PNG, BMP, MODCA/IOCA, PCX, TGA, and many more!
- Image Processing - Use more than 200 digital filters and transforms to process images (or selected portions). Smooth, sharpen, edge detect/enhance, modify brightness/contrast/gamma, change hue and saturation, red-eye removal, unsharp mask, add noise, resize and rotate images using various resampling techniques (including bicubic), and much more.
- Color Conversion - Convert between color modes, like 24-bit true-color, 8-bit indexed, 1-bit black/white, and many more. Changing the color mode changes the amount of data stored per pixel, which alters an image's memory/disk requirements.
- Compression - Compress images using a wide variety of compression algorithms, including JPEG, CMP, LZW*, G3/G4, Huffman, run-length, and many more . LEAD offers comprehensive support for compression schemes found in standard raster file formats, as well as high-performance proprietary compression technologies that outperform the industry standards.
- Image Display/Effects - Render images or selected regions to display device while controlling position/scaling, resample method (normal/bilinear/bicubic), brightness/contrast/gamma, color-reduction/dithering, image(source) and device(destination) clipping, and more. Navigate large images using a small pan-window, browse a group of images using a thumbnail viewer, apply 2000+ paint transitions and effects between viewed images.
- Scanning via TWAIN - Control image acquisition from any device (scanner, digital camera, etc) which supports TWAIN. Use device's built in user-interface or create your own.
- Printing - Print images or selected regions while controlling position/scaling, halftoning/dithering. Print multiple images and text to a single or multiple pages.
- Database Imaging - Store images (any supported file-format/compression-technique) to a variety of databases, including SQL, Oracle or any database which supports ODBC, OLE DB, or that can be bound via VB data control connections.
- Common Dialogs - Utilize common dialogs for many common imaging tasks, such as file loading and saving with thumbnail preview, color conversion, input of filter parameters, and many more.
- Internet - Includes functions to load images from URL's or memory streams. All LEADTOOLS products include ActiveX controls and Pro products include COM objects that can be used to extend functionality on a server or in Internet Explorer.
- Digital Paint (Only Included in Raster Pro) - A must for anyone who wants to add digital painting functionality to their application. With the LEADTOOLS Digital Paint feature, a developer can create an entire image editing or design application, or simply add pieces of those types of functionality into an existing application.
