SaveToMemory Method of the PDFAttachment Object

SaveToMemory method of the PDFAttachment Object in the ABBYY FineReader Engine API — Saves the attached file to global memory via a Handle object that manages memory release (Windows only).

This method is implemented in FRE for Windows.

This method saves the attached file into the global memory. The method returns an HGLOBAL handle of the memory area allocated for the object as the Handle object. This object manages memory allocation and releases resources when they are no longer in use.

The method does not save the contents of the PDFAttachment object, but only the attached file itself, so that you will be unable to retrieve, e.g., the attachment description or binding type from the saved data.
