The StretchDIBits function copies the color data for a rectangle of pixels in a device-independent bitmap (DIB) to the specified destination rectangle. If the destination rectangle is larger than the source rectangle, this function stretches the rows and columns of color data to fit the destination rectangle. If the destination rectangle is smaller than the source rectangle, StretchDIBits compresses the rows and columns by using the specified raster operation.
Windows 98 and Windows NT version 5.0: StretchDIBits is extended to allow a JPEG image to be passes as the source image.
For example:
// pvJpgImage points to a buffer containing the JPEG image
// nJpgImageSize is the size of the buffer
// ulJpgWidth is the width of the JPEG image
// ulJpgHeight is the height of the JPEG image
//
//
// Check if CHECKJPEGFORMAT is supported (device has JPEG support)
// and use it to verify that device can handle the JPEG image.
//
ul = CHECKJPEGFORMAT;
if (
// Check if CHECKJPEGFORMAT exists:
(ExtEscape(hdc, QUERYESCAPESUPPORT,
sizeof(ul), &ul, 0, 0) > 0) &&
// Check if CHECKJPEGFORMAT executed without error:
(ExtEscape(hdc, CHECKJPEGFORMAT,
pvJpgImage, nJpgImageSize, sizeof(ul), &ul) > 0) &&
// Check status code returned by CHECKJPEGFORMAT:
(ul == 1)
)
{
//
// Initialize the BITMAPINFO.
//
memset(&bmi, 0, sizeof(bmi));
bmi.bmiHeader.biSize = sizeof(BITMAPINFOHEADER);
bmi.bmiHeader.biWidth = ulJpgWidth;
bmi.bmiHeader.biHeight = -ulJpgHeight; // top-down image
bmi.bmiHeader.biPlanes = 1;
bmi.bmiHeader.biBitCount = 0;
bmi.bmiHeader.biCompression = BI_JPEG;
bmi.bmiHeader.biSizeImage = nJpgImageSize;

// source rectangle
0, 0, ulJpgWidth, ulJpgHeight,
