SaveCompression Property    

 

Type Default Value Read Only Description
[C#]
Compression

[Visual Basic]
Compression 		None No The preferred compression method.

 

    

Notes		  

This property determines the preferred compression method.

Not all file formats support all compression methods. Not all compression methods support all color spaces. This is why this property indicates a preferred method.

The Compression enumeration accepts the following values:

  • None [Uncompressed]
  • G3 [G3 Black and White Fax Compression]
  • G4 [G4 Black and White Fax Compression]
  • LZW [LZW Compression]
  • Jpeg [Tiff Jpeg Compression]
  • AdobeFlate [Adobe Flate Compression]
  • Flate [Flate Compression]
  • PackBits [Macintosh PackBits]

In general this property is most useful when producing output in formats like TIFF which support a range of color spaces and compression methods.

 

    

Example		  

The following example shows how to render a PDF into a multipage G4 compressed Fax TIFF using different vertical and horizontal resolutions.

 

using (Doc doc = new Doc()) {   doc.Read(Server.MapPath("../Rez/spaceshuttle.pdf"));   // set up the rendering parameters   doc.Rendering.ColorSpace = XRendering.ColorSpaceType.Gray;   doc.Rendering.BitsPerChannel = 1;   doc.Rendering.DotsPerInchX = 200;   doc.Rendering.DotsPerInchY = 400;   // loop through the pages   int n = doc.PageCount;   for (int i = 1; i <= n; i++) {     doc.PageNumber = i;     doc.Rect.String = doc.CropBox.String;     doc.Rendering.SaveAppend = (i != 1);     doc.Rendering.SaveCompression = XRendering.Compression.G4;     doc.Rendering.Save(Server.MapPath("fax.tif"));   } }
