 |
|
Hi.
I want to embedd an image file (.gif) to my solution, and print it in the resulting PDF file (the file I generate).
Is there a way to get Sharp PDF to print such a resource?
My idea is to use my program with no need to carry the .gif file along with it.
Thanks in advance |

Hi!
Get an Image from your resource, create an XImage from your Image - that's all.

Damn it! It sounds really easy, yet I cannot figure it out.
Thanks for your anser, Thomas. Unfortunately, I have not been able to apply your solution. I am still working on it.
(But if you would be so genle to give mi a hint, I would appreciate it).
So far, I have this:
With this code, I show in a pictureBox the resource image file:
| Code: | pictureBox1.Image = Properties.Resources.logo;
|
And with this code, I get an image file from its location to print it in the resulting PDF file:
| Code: | pictureBox1.Image = Properties.Resources.logo;
formGfx.DrawImage(XImage.R("logo.gif"), 10, 10); |
So, I guess I must combine both snippets...
or am I wrong? |

I answe to myself (and to anyone with the same problem):
I know it is not the best solution for everyone, but i worked for me:
I assigned the image resource file to a picture box, and then, accessed to the picture in the picturebox and sent it to be printed on the pdf file:
| Code: | pictureBox1.Image = Properties.Resources.logo;
formGfx.DrawImage(XImage.FromGdiPlusImage(pictureBox1.Image),10,10); |
And that's all.
Cheers

I guess the right way to do it is this:
| Code: | | formGfx.DrawImage(XImage.FromGdiPlusImage(Properties.Resources.logo), 10, 10); |
("logo" is th ename of my gif file)
using no picturebox. |
