<para>
<function>glReadPixels</function> returns pixel data from the frame buffer,
starting with the pixel whose lower left corner
is at location (<parameter>x</parameter>, <parameter>y</parameter>),
into client memory starting at location <parameter>data</parameter>.
Several parameters control the processing of the pixel data before
it is placed into client memory.
These parameters are set with <citerefentry><refentrytitle>glPixelStore</refentrytitle></citerefentry>.
This reference page describes the effects on <function>glReadPixels</function> of most,
but not all of the parameters specified by these three commands.
</para>
<para>
If a non-zero named buffer object is bound to the <constant>GL_PIXEL_PACK_BUFFER</constant> target
(see <citerefentry><refentrytitle>glBindBuffer</refentrytitle></citerefentry>) while a block of pixels is
requested, <parameter>data</parameter> is treated as a byte offset into the buffer object's data store
rather than a pointer to client memory.
</para>

<function>glReadPixels</function> returns values from each pixel with lower left corner at

Stencil values are read from the stencil buffer.

shifted left or right depending on the value and sign of <constant>GL_INDEX_SHIFT</constant>,
and added to <constant>GL_INDEX_OFFSET</constant>.
If <constant>GL_MAP_STENCIL</constant> is <constant>GL_TRUE</constant>,

Each component is then multiplied by <constant>GL_DEPTH_SCALE</constant>,

If <parameter>format</parameter> is <constant>GL_STENCIL_INDEX</constant>
and <parameter>type</parameter> is not <constant>GL_FLOAT</constant>,
each index is masked with the mask value given in the following table.
If <parameter>type</parameter> is <constant>GL_FLOAT</constant>, then each integer index is converted to
single-precision floating-point format.

<constant>GL_BGRA</constant> and <parameter>type</parameter> is not <constant>GL_FLOAT</constant>,
each component is multiplied by the multiplier shown in the following table.
If type is <constant>GL_FLOAT</constant>, then each component is passed as is
(or converted to the client's single-precision floating-point format if
it is different from the one used by the GL).
