EditorPrintNoteToBitmap Errors

I’ve been using the EditorPrintNoteToBitmap C API call to render documents to bitmaps.

With the Notes 4.X version the only real problem I’ve run into was graphics being turned into “black blobs”. This is somewhat reasonable / expected since the notes are being rendered into bitonal bitmaps.

With upgrading to the Notes 6.X version the call frequently starts generating “division by zero” errors and “bleeding” text where the test from multiple paragraphs in documents start being overlapping parts of other paragraphs in the bitmaps that are generated.

Has anyone had any better success with this API call using the Notes 6.X version?

Or any success in getting the Notes 4.X version to dither / alias the bitmaps in documents so they don’t get turned into “black blobs”?

I don’t know about the graphics, but i was able to solve the bleeding text problem. I’m working on a DLL that will allow a document to be rendered into a tiff. The issue that i found was with elements in tables and those that aren’t. A simple solution to this is to enclose the whole document ( or fields that are bleeding ) into a table. When you render it after that, it should be fine.
