# HDF_DF24_GETIMAGE

The HDF_DF24_GETIMAGE procedure reads a 24-bit raster image from an HDF file. The default is to use the same format for reading as that used in writing the image. Note: it is slower to read an image in a different interlace than the one in which the image was originally written.

## Syntax

## Arguments
