The choice of image file format is very dependent upon the application and the type of image data that is to be saved.
To address the widest possible range of applications, TX Text Control ActiveX supports the following file formats:
TIFF is a standardized file format for exchanging bitmapped and grayscale images among applications.
WMF is a vector graphics format for Windows-compatible computers originally designed for word processing clip art.
BMP is a standardized file format used to transfer graphic images within Windows applications, designed for maximum compatibility amongst applications.
JPEG is a graphical format widely used in WWW pages. JPEG is a compressed format which can result in significantly reduced file sizes for photographs and other images with continuous color changes.
GIF is the most common format for graphic images on the Internet. It is a highly compressed format that is used to display 2-dimensional raster images. It is especially suited to images containing large areas of the same color.
PNG is a standard file format approved by the World Wide Web consortium to replace the GIF file format. PNG is patent and license-free.
This feature is available or partially available in the following TX Text Control ActiveX products:
