Steps to Grayscale EMF via Ruby Cloud API
Developers can easily load & grayscale EMF files in just a few lines of code.
- Load EMF file as stream
- Create & set the instance of CreateGrayscaledImageRequest
- Call the CreateGrayscaledImage method
- Get grayscaled image from response stream
System Requirements
Aspose.Imaging Cloud for Ruby is supported on all major operating systems. Just make sure that you have the following prerequisites.

About Aspose.Imaging Cloud API for Ruby
Aspose.Imaging Cloud API is an image processing solution to process images (photos) within your cloud or web applications. It offers: cross-platform Image processing, including but not limited to conversions between various image formats (including uniform multi-page or multi-frame image processing), transformations (resize, crop, flip&rotate, grayscale, adjust), advanced image manipulation features (filtering, deskewing), AI features (i.e. object detection and reverse image search). It’s a Cloud API and does not depend on any software for image operations. One can easily add high-performance image conversion features with Cloud APIs within projects. Flexible integrations options including SDKs for various languages (Python, Ruby, .NET, Java, NodeJS, PHP) and the use of the REST API allow to make the integration easy.

EMF What is EMF File Format
Enhanced metafile format (EMF) stores graphical images device-independently. Metafiles of EMF comprises of variable-length records in chronological order that can render the stored image after parsing on any output device. These variable-length records can be definitions of enclosed objects, commands for drawing, and graphics properties critical to render the image accurately. When a device opens an EMF metafile using its own graphics environment, the proportions, dimensions, colors and other graphic properties of original image remains same regardless of the opening device platform.
