biWidth wrong in tagBITMAPINFOHEADER when using twain

Asked by Sonja_M in Windows MFC Programming, C++ Programming Language, Images and Photos

Tags: Microsoft, Visual Studio, 6

I use the twain driver to scan an image. Then I read the raw image data i get a wrong width for the following dpi-resolutions:
96 dpi -> the width is to low by 3
100 dpi -> the width is to low by 2

I have attached an image to show this.

On higher Resolutions (150, 300, 360dpi) it always works.

What did I wrong? Is there a differnet way to get the hight and width of an hDIB?

The strange thing is it that these resolutions work perfect in other programms (e.g. IrfanView)

Please Help
