Save Image to Stream

Prior to saving an image, set the SaveOptions to provide specific instructions for saving the image. If no save options are specified, ImagXpress® uses default values when saving the image.

Save to Stream

To save an image to a memory or file stream, call ImageX.SaveStream. The ImageStatusEvent and ProgressEvent events are raised to provide feedback on the status of the saving process.

To save to a BLOB (Binary Large Object), use the ImageX.SaveStream method.

To save a file to an Internet stream, use the ImageX.Save method, specifying the full Internet path and file name, NOT the SaveStream method.

To save an ImageX image to stream:

Create a stream object, derived from the System.IO.Stream
Call the ImageX.SaveStream method.
