 Windows Color Table



When creating ePaper images, you can refer to the color table provided by the Paint

software that comes with the Windows system. You need to create an image with the

same resolution as the ePaper and save the image in bmp or jpg format.

Note: Before the picture production and bitmap conversion for a three-color ePaper image, it needs to be split into two separate images: black-and-white and red-and-white, as shown in the image below:

4. Steps for Bitmap Conversion of ePaper Images
4.1 Importing Images for ePaper Bitmap Conversion

Open the Image2LCD software, click the " " button, and import the image that needs bitmap conversion. The status information panel will then display the resolution and name of the imported image.
4.2 ePaper Bitmap Conversion Settings Ultra Chip series IC models (referred to as UC): UC8151D, UC8253, UC8276, UC8179, etc. Solomon series IC models (referred to as SSD): SSD1680, SSD1681, SSD1677, SSD1683, etc. Note: The width and height of the image should match those of the ePaper display.
After setting the resolution, click " " to confirm. 4.2.1 Bitmap Conversion for UC Series Monochrome and Tricolor ePaper 1) For monochrome and tricolor ePaper displays below 2.9 inch, you need to select
"Vertical Scan," "Monochrome," "Scan Right to Left," and "Reverse color." Set the
resolution corresponding to the ePaper display, then click " " to confirm the settings.

Finally, click "

" to convert the image to an array and save it with the extension ".C".
