TiffExtraChannel Class

Represents the TIFF extra channel retrieved from an image.

Namespace: Aurigma.GraphicsMill.Codecs
Assembly: Aurigma.GraphicsMill (in Aurigma.GraphicsMill.dll)

Syntax

C#
public sealed class TiffExtraChannel : Frame

Remarks

One of the most important features of the TIFF image format is the extra channels support. Extra channels are typically used to specify non-color information (such as image opacity), highlight some image area, or apply additional inks (such as gold, silver, etc.) in printing solutions.

Examples

The following code reads a TIFF image, extracts an extra channel from it, and saves the channel's bitmap as a JPEG image.

C#
using (var reader = new TiffReader(@"Images\result.tif"))
{
    reader.Frames[0].ExtraChannels[1].GetBitmap().Save(@"Images\Output\extra.jpg");
}
