MetafileHeader class (gdiplusmetaheader.h)

A MetafileHeader object stores properties of an associated metafile.

MetafileHeader has these types of members:

Method	Description
MetafileHeader::GetBounds	The MetafileHeader::GetBounds method gets the bounding rectangle for the associated metafile.
MetafileHeader::GetDpiX	The MetafileHeader::GetDpiX method gets the horizontal dots per inch of the associated metafile.
MetafileHeader::GetDpiY	The MetafileHeader::GetDpiY method gets the vertical dots per inch of the associated metafile.
MetafileHeader::GetEmfHeader	The MetafileHeader::GetEmfHeader method gets an ENHMETAHEADER3 structure that contains properties of the associated metafile.
MetafileHeader::GetEmfPlusFlags	The MetafileHeader::GetEmfPlusFlags method gets a flag that indicates whether the associated metafile was recorded against a video display device context.
MetafileHeader::GetMetafileSize	The MetafileHeader::GetMetafileSize method gets the size, in bytes, of the metafile.
MetafileHeader::GetType	The MetafileHeader::GetType method gets the type of the associated metafile.
MetafileHeader::GetVersion	The MetafileHeader::GetVersion method gets the version of the metafile.
MetafileHeader::GetWmfHeader	The MetafileHeader::GetWmfHeader method gets a METAHEADER structure that contains properties of the associated metafile.
MetafileHeader::IsDisplay	The MetafileHeader::IsDisplay method determines whether the associated metafile was recorded against a video display device context.
MetafileHeader::IsEmf	The MetafileHeader::IsEmf method determines whether the associated metafile is in the EMF format.
MetafileHeader::IsEmfOrEmfPlus	The MetafileHeader::IsEmfOrEmfPlus method determines whether the associated metafile is in either the EMF or EMF+ format.
MetafileHeader::IsEmfPlus	The MetafileHeader::IsEmfPlus method determines whether the associated metafile is in the EMF+ format.
MetafileHeader::IsEmfPlusDual	The MetafileHeader::IsEmfPlusDual method determines whether the associated metafile is in the EMF+ Dual format.
MetafileHeader::IsEmfPlusOnly	The MetafileHeader::IsEmfPlusOnly method determines whether the associated metafile is in the EMF+ Only format.
MetafileHeader::IsWmf	The MetafileHeader::IsWmf method determines whether the associated metafile is in the WMF format.
MetafileHeader::IsWmfPlaceable	The MetafileHeader::IsWmfPlaceable method determines whether the associated metafile is a placeable metafile.

Remarks

Metafiles provide a device-independent and application-independent way to share pictures. They contain records that describe a sequence of graphics APIs to invoke in a particular order with their associated graphics data. Metafiles can be recorded by an application and later played back by that application or by another one to reproduce a particular picture. They can also be used to send content to a print spooler. Enhanced metafiles support the ability to provide both Windows GDI+ and Windows Graphics Device Interface (GDI) descriptions of the same picture so that both GDI+ and down-level GDI applications can render it.
