L_LineRemoveBitmap (original) (raw)
Summary
Removes horizontal and vertical lines in a 1-bit black and white image.
This function is available in the Document and Medical Imaging toolkits.
Syntax
#include "l_bitmap.h"
L_LTIMGCOR_API L_INT L_LineRemoveBitmap(pBitmap, pLineRemove, pfnCallback, pUserData, uFlags)
Parameters
pBITMAPHANDLE pBitmap
Pointer to the bitmap handle referencing the bitmap on which to perform line removal.
pLINEREMOVE pLineRemove
Pointer to the LINEREMOVE structure that LEADTOOLS uses to perform the line removal operation.
LINEREMOVECALLBACK pfnCallback
Optional callback function for additional processing.
If you do not provide a callback function, use NULL as the value of this parameter.
If you do provide a callback function, use the function pointer as the value of this parameter.
The callback function must adhere to the function prototype described in LINEREMOVECALLBACK Function.
L_VOID * pUserData
Void pointer that you can use to pass one or more additional parameters that the callback function needs.
To use this feature, assign a value to a variable or create a structure that contains as many fields as you need. Then, in this parameter, pass the address of the variable or structure, casting it to L_VOID *. The callback function, which receives the address in its own pUserData parameter, can cast it to a pointer of the appropriate data type to access your variable or structure.
If the additional parameters are not needed, you can pass NULL in this parameter.
L_UINT32 uFlags
Reserved for future use. Must be 0.
Returns
| Value | Meaning |
|---|---|
| SUCCESS | The function was successful. |
| < 1 | An error occurred. Refer to Return Codes. |
Comments
This function does not support signed data images. It returns the error code ERROR_SIGNED_DATA_NOT_SUPPORTED if a signed data image is passed to this function.
(Document) This function removes horizontal and vertical lines from scanned text documents. If the lines pass through text, the pLineRemove parameter can be configured to remove or preserve the text. The behavior of this function can be further modified by using its callback.
This function works only on 1-bit black and white images.
If a region is selected, only the selected region will be changed by this function. If no region is selected, the whole image will be processed.
This function does not support 32-bit grayscale images. It returns the error code ERROR_GRAY32_UNSUPPORTED if a 32-bit grayscale image is passed to this function.

Example
This examples removes vertical lines that are at least 200 pixels in length and no more than 5 pixels in width.
The lines can have gaps up to two pixels in length.
A callback is used to display information about each line removed.
The callback does NOT return a region.
