Save Image to Buffer

Images can be saved from ImagXpress® to a memory buffer:

Set the SaveToBuffer property to specify that image data should be set to a memory buffer.
Set the file format type with the SaveFileType property.
Call the SaveFile method.
Get the handle to the compressed image from the SaveBufferHandle property and do any processing/storing of that compressed image.
Call the DeleteSaveBuffer method to free the memory that holds the compressed image.
