Re: Can't load TIF files generated from a scan or Office mdi documents

Tech-Archive recommends: Fix windows errors by optimizing your registry

Hello JuanPablo,

I got your image.

The problem here is that the GDI+ CODEC can't read that particular brand of
compressed TIFF. Like I often say, the TIFF spec is too big.

You'll have to either load in another format or perhaps use a thirt-party
image library.

I don't know if FreeImage does thiese sorts of tiffs. Might be worth a try
checking that out.

Hi,

I'm trying to load images either generated from my scanner or exported
from
an office mdi document using different lines of code and all of the return
the same exception: System.ArgumentException. I know the file is OK
because I
can open with any installed viewers on my PC (IE, ImageViewer, etc)
The code I'm using is:
Bitmap inNodeBitmap = new Bitmap(imageFileName);

Any help on how can I add the right decoder to load the image.

JuanPablo
