IPI_ImageToPageSegment()

This subprocedure is used to convert an image which was previously loaded by IPI_LoadImage() into a page segment (*PAGSEG) which can be used with AFPDS printing on the IBM i.

The dimensions of the page segment being created can be specified in inches using the Width and Height subfields of the IPI_PageSegmentDS_t to resize the output.

CopyrpgleD IPI_ImageToPageSegment...
D                 PR              N   Extproc('IPI_ImageToPageSegment')

Returns *OFF if an error occurs during processing, *ON otherwise.

 
CopyrpgleD  pImageDS                           Const LikeDS(IPI_ImageDS_t)

Contains image data previously loaded by IPI_LoadImage()

 
CopyrpgleD  pTargetPageSegmentDS...
D                                     Const LikeDS(IPI_PageSegmentDS_t)

Contains configuration information about the page segment to create.

 
CopyrpgleD  pErrorDS                           LikeDS(IPI_ErrorDS_t)
D                                     Options(*Nopass:*Omit)

Optional parameter that, if passed, will contain error data returned from the subprocedure. If it is not passed, exceptions will instead be "thrown" and must be caught by a MONITOR block.
