Image (Bitmap) Import Automation Options

Since the Import Options dialog is not displayed when the program is driven from an automation script, an options string can be specified in the script. The string consists of comma-separated parameters, which specify the behavior of the various import options. A typical example would be:

 "Defaults=1,TIFImageNum=2"

This would set all import options to their default values, then indicate that the second TIFF image from the (assumed) multi-image file be imported.

Option Action Default
Defaults=1 Set all options to their default values No
ForgetOptions= Don't remember options for later use No
TIFImageNum=N Import image #N from a multi-image TIFF file 1
DCXImageNum=N Import image #N from a multi-image DCX file 1
Sid_Scale Reduction factor for MrSID files; a power of two between 1 and 32  
SpatialReferenceSource=0 (None) Ignore all spatial reference info 0
SpatialReferenceSource=1 Use Embedded GeoTIFF Parameters  
SpatialReferenceSource=2 Use Golden Software Reference File  
SpatialReferenceSource=3 Use Esri World File  
SpatialReferenceSource=4 Use Blue Marble .RSF File
