Displaying embedded tiff images

Post by JohnP » Wed Mar 07, 2012 2:07 pm

We are currently looking to replace an old imaging control with the GDViewer.

The old control will display annotations embedded in the tiff file; these embedded annotation can also be displayed by the "XP - Windows Picture and FAX viewer" so it looks like a common format.

I have attached an image containing an embedded annotation along with a screen shot of the display in the XP - Windows Viewer - the annotation does not display in GdViewer

Does the GDViewer have any support for annotations in this format ?

Thanks

John

Hello,

This file contains Wang annotation which is a legacy format.
Unfortunately we do not support WANG annotation rendering and have no plan to introduce such feature. What you can do with GdPicture is only extracting the annotation blob field "as is".

Kind regards,

Loïc
