Description

Describes a pixel format.

The format class describes one of two kinds of pixel formats: indexed color and direct color. Indexed color pixel formats describe of pixel values that index into a palette (See IPTCPalette). Direct color pixel formats describe pixels that have red, green, blue and alpha information packed into each pixel. Format objects are typically used when creating surface classes with TPTCSurfaceFactory.CreateNew, and when opening consoles with IPTCConsole.Open.
