Public Property SaveAnnotations As Boolean

Return Type

If saving annotations to a TIFF file with ImagXpress.

Remarks

Annotations can be saved into the TIFF file as either Kodak/Wang Imaging for Windows compatible annotations (NX_AnnotationType_I4W) , or in native NotateXpress format (NX_AnnotationType_NXP) depending on the state of the AnnotationType property. All other annotation types are ignored.

The following conditions must apply for embedded annotations to be saved:

NotateXpress is connected to ImagXpress.
You save a TIFF file in ImagXpress.
There are annotations present.

Each format is saved in a different TIFF tag, enabling a user to have both NX_AnnotationType_I4W and NX_AnnotationType_NXP in the same file.

The TIFF tag for NX_AnnotationType_I4W is 32932 (hex 80A4).

The TIFF tag for NX_AnnotationType_NXP is 34686 (hex 877E).
