The following function is available only with DTWAIN / PDF.
The DTWAIN_SetPDFPageScale sets the current page scale of the image acquired to PDF files.
DTWAIN_BOOL DTWAIN_SetPDFPageScale (
Parameters Source An open TWAIN Source.
PageScale The current scaling factor to apply to the acquired image.
CustomXScale Custom x-scaling as a percent.
CustomYScaleHeight Custom y-scaling as a percent.
Return Values The return value is TRUE if successful. Otherwise FALSE is returned.
Comments The DTWAIN_SetPDFPageScale sets the current scale of an acquired image that is saved as a page in a PDF file.
Please note: If you are acquiring to PDF files, and will allow DTWAIN to create searchable PDF's (see DTWAIN_SetPDFOCRMode), you should not call DTWAIN_SetPDFPageScale, as doing so will distort the locations of the position of the text within the PDF file. Please call DTWAIN_SetPDFPageSize to properly size a page that will eventually store searchable text.
The PageScale argument can be one of the following:
DTWAIN_PDF_NOSCALING DTWAIN_PDF_FITPAGE DTWAIN_PDF_CUSTOMSCALE
If PageScale is DTWAIN_PDF_NOSCALING, the image acquired is not scaled to fit in the page. When placing an image within a PDF page, each pixel of the image corresponds to a point of the PDF page. For example, if an image is 600 x 800, and the PDF page is letter (612 x 792 points), the image will fit within the width of the PDF file (600 < 612), but the height will not fit ( 800 > 792). If the image is too large to fit the width or height, the image is clipped.
DTWAIN_PDF_FITPAGE will stretch or contract the image in the x and y direction to fit the page. This is desirable if you have acquired using standard size paper (Letter, A4, etc.).
DTWAIN_PDF_CUSTOMSCALE allows you to specify the x and y scaling. The scaling numbers must be greater than 0.0. The x and y values are specified by CustomXScale and CustomYScale arguments, respectively. By setting the custom scale, you can shrink or exapnd your images in the x and/or y direction.
If DTWAIN_PDF_NOSCALING or DTWAIN_PDF_FITPAGE are specifed, the CustomXScale and CustomYScale arguments are ignored.
By default, the page scale is set for DTWAIN_PDF_FITPAGE.
Example To add the image to the PDF page with no scaling DTWAIN_SetPDFPageScale( Source, DTWAIN_PDF_NOSCALING, 0.0, 0.0 );
To fit the image to the PDF page DTWAIN_SetPDFPageScale( Source, DTWAIN_PDF_FITPAGE, 0.0, 0.0 );
To set a custom scale of 50% in the x (horizontal) and 35% in the y (vertical) direction: DTWAIN_SetPDFPageScale( Source, DTWAIN_PDF_CUSTOMSCALE, 50.0, 35.0 );
For languages that have difficulties with DTWAIN_FLOAT parameters, the alternate function that can be used as a replacement for DTWAIN_SetPDFPageScale is DTWAIN_SetPDFPageScaleString.
