Since the Import Options dialog is not displayed when the program is driven from an automation script, an options string can be specified in the script. The string consists of comma-separated parameters, which specify the behavior of the various import options. A typical example would be:
"Scale=16"
This would reduce the scale of the map to 1/16th .

Description |
Scale |
1 = 1/1 (uses most memory, best quality) 2 = 1/2 4 = 1/4 8 = 1/8 16 = 1/16 32 = 1/32 (uses least memory, lowest quality) |
1 |
Since some images can be extremely large once expanded into memory, the import filter allows the image to be reduced in dimensions by 1/2 to 1/32 of the original size. |
