Load a TIFF for conversion in C#

TIFF

To load a TIFF image for conversion, use the LoadFromFile method from the GdPictureDocumentConverter class.

LoadFromFile accepts:

  • FilePath — Path to the TIFF file.
  • DocumentFormat (optional) — A member of the DocumentFormat enumeration. For TIFF, use DocumentFormat.DocumentFormatTIFF.

LoadFromFile returns a GdPictureStatus, which should always be checked before conversion.

To load and convert a TIFF image from local storage, use the following code:

using GdPicture14;
using System;


using GdPictureDocumentConverter converter = new GdPictureDocumentConverter();


GdPictureStatus status = converter.LoadFromFile(
    @"C:\temp\source.tiff",
    DocumentFormat.DocumentFormatTIFF);


if (status != GdPictureStatus.OK)
{
    Console.WriteLine($"LoadFromFile failed: {status}");
    return;
}


status = converter.SaveAsPDF(@"C:\temp\output.pdf");
if (status != GdPictureStatus.OK)
{
    Console.WriteLine($"SaveAsPDF failed: {status}");
}
