Imaging GUIDs (Windows Embedded CE 6.0)

1/6/2010

The Imaging API defines several groups of GUIDs that you can use to identify specific data formats and parameters associated with images and image encoders.

To use these GUIDs, add the following lines of code to your application's source code prior to any other #include statements that might directly or indirectly include Windows.h.

#define INITGUID
#include <windows.h>
#include <imaging.h>
#undef INITGUID

Image Format Identifiers

The following table shows GUIDs used to identify file formats for images.

GUID	Description
ImageFormatUndefined	Indicates an image from an unidentified file format.
ImageFormatMemoryBMP	Indicates an image from a bitmap in memory rather than in a file.
ImageFormatBMP	Indicates an image from a bitmap file.
ImageFormatEMF	Not supported.
ImageFormatWMF	Not supported.
ImageFormatJPEG	Indicates an image from a JPEG file.
ImageFormatPNG	Indicates an image from a PNG file.
ImageFormatGIF	Indicates an image from a GIF file.
ImageFormatTIFF	Indicates an image from a TIFF file.
ImageFormatEXIF	Indicates an image from an EXIF file.
ImageFormatIcon	Indicates an image from an icon file.

Multi-frame Dimension Identifiers

The following table shows GUIDs used to identify major dimensions for multi-frame images.

GUID	Description
FrameDimensionTime	Indicates the time of the image.
FrameDimensionResolution	Indicates the resolution of the image.
FrameDimensionPage	Indicates the page of the image.

Property Set Identifiers

The following table shows GUIDs used to identify categories of property sets for images.

GUID	Description
FormatIDImageInformation	Indicates a property set for data about the image.
FormatIDJpegAppHeaders	Indicates a property set for JPEG application headers.

Decoder Parameter Identifiers

The following table shows GUIDs used to identify parameters for image decoders.

GUID	Description
DECODER_TRANSCOLOR	Identifies the decoder's transparency color settings.
DECODER_TRANSRANGE	Identifies the decoder's transparency range settings.
DECODER_OUTPUTCHANNEL	Identifies the decoder's output channel.
DECODER_ICONRES	Identifies the decoder's icon resolution.
DECODER_USEICC	Identifies the decoder's support for color management through International Color Consortium (ICC) profiles.

Encoder Parameter Identifiers

The following table shows GUIDs used to identify parameters for image encoders.

GUID	Description
EncoderCompression	Identifies the encoder's compression settings.
EncoderColorDepth	Identifies the encoder's color depth settings.
EncoderScanMethod	Identifies the encoder's scan mode settings, including whether an image is interlaced or noninterlaced.
EncoderVersion	Identifies the encoder's software version settings.
EncoderRenderMethod	Identifies the encoder's render method settings, including whether an image should be rendered in a progressive or nonprogressive mode.
EncoderQuality	Identifies the encoder's quality settings.
EncoderTransformation	Identifies the encoder's transformation settings.
EncoderLuminanceTable	Identifies the encoder's luminance table settings.
EncoderChrominanceTable	Identifies the encoder's chrominance table settings.
EncoderSaveFlag	Identifies the encoder's save flag settings.
CodecIImageBytes	Identifies the encoder's memory settings.
