Format.ExportToClipboard Method

Format.ExportToClipboard(BtColors, BtResolution)

Where

BtColors sets the number of colors that are used to create the image. Available options include BtColors.btColorsMono (black and white), BtColors.btColors16 (16 colors), BtColors.btColors256 (256 colors), BtColors.btColors24bit (24bit color file), and BtColors.btColors32bit (32bit color file). BtColors.btColors32bit supports exporting the object with a transparent background.
BtResolution sets the resolution of the exported image. Valid values can be any number from 2 to 3000, which represent dots per inch (dpi) or one of the following designated values:
- -1 (equal to 1 dpi)
- 0 (the resolution of the screen that creates the image [btResolutionScreen])
- 1 (the resolution of the printer [btResolutionprinter])

The Format.ExportToClipboard method exports all objects that are created on the template, with the following exceptions:

Any objects on the document for which the Preprinted option is selected are not exported to the Clipboard.
Any objects for which the Print When option is used to disable printing are not printed.

To include these objects, use the Format object's ExportToFile method.
