2008.07.03 15:36 "Converting BMP to Tiff", by Lou Feliz
Hello,
I found a thread with an example function for converting a BMP to
TIFF. It does work, however I am having a problem. The BMP is Black
text on a white background and the resulting TIF is white text on
black background. What causes this? I am a newbie to graphics
programming, but am thinking I missed something real simple here.
BMP := TBitmap.create;
with BMP do
begin
Width := 920;
Height := 1150;
Canvas.Brush.Color := clWhite;
Pixelformat := pf1bit ;
with Canvas.Font do begin
Name := 'Arial';
Size := 12;
Color := clBlack;
end;
Canvas.TextOut(50,100,'Hello World');
end;
BMP.SaveToFile('c:\temp\TEST.BMP');
// THE BMP Saved to a file looks fine
WriteBitmapToTiff(BMP,'c:\temp\TEST.TIF');
BMP.Free;
The Function IAm using is as found in this thread
