SimplePixelFormat

Specifies a simplified color space and bit depth for an image.

Remarks

The Simple Pixel Format enumeration provides a high-level classification of image types in Grooper. It is used to quickly identify whether an image is binary (black and white), grayscale, or color, without referencing the full PixelFormat details.

Usage

• Use Simple Pixel Format to select processing options, compression, or display logic based on image type.
• This classification is commonly used in batch activities, image conversion, and quality control.

Configuration Guidance

• Choose Binary for bitonal images, such as scanned text or forms.
• Use Grayscale for single-channel images, such as monochrome photos or medical scans.
• Use Color for full RGB images, such as photographs or color documents.
• The None value indicates an unsupported or unknown format.

Can be one of the following values:

Name	Value		Description
None	0		None.
Grayscale	133248	►	8-Bit Grayscale The Grayscale value represents images with 256 levels of gray, using a single 8-bit channel. Usage Use for monochrome photos, medical scans, or images where color is not required. Balances quality and file size for non-color images.
Color	137224	►	24-Bit Color The Color value represents full RGB images, with three 8-bit channels for red, green, and blue. Usage Use for photographs, color documents, and images requiring true color. Widely supported by image formats and processing tools.
Binary	196865	►	Black and White The Binary value represents bitonal images, where each pixel is either black or white. Usage Ideal for scanned documents, forms, and text. Produces small file sizes and is compatible with most image formats.
