  • The component does not support gray-scale images with color depth more than 8 bits per pixel.
  • Bates Stamp Server web service interacts with users through secure SSL channel. The security level used provides only encryption of all the data transferred between client (user) and server sides, and does not provide authentication of web service to users.
  • This component cannot process PDF files with the size more than 2 GB. This is the restriction of the LeadTools™ technologies used by this component. It is recommended to use compression when you process PDF documents.
  • Since the LeadTools™ rasterizes output PDF file, the output PDF file can be much bigger in size than the input file.
  • The component may change PDF image colors when processing/previewing/selecting stamp zones if the color depth parameter is not set to 24 BPP.
  • If color depth is set to 24 BPP, the colors of PDF image may change a little, as the LeadTools™ fades such images slightly. This effect is especially visible when an image is processed in a cycle for several times.
The color depth is specified by the Color depth setting on the Stamp tab of the component settings. For more information, see Stamp Tab.
