How to convert a PDFImage to Byte

[s thomson]

Hello

I am trying to save or convert a PDFImage to a byte[] in order to save the image to a SQL database. I cant work out how to save the PDFImage to a memory stream so I can then convert to a byte[] via ms.ToArray(). If I try pdfimage.save(ms) it says that type PDFImage is inaccessible due to its protection level.

thanks

scott

Hi Thomson,

We lack the capability to store PdfImage as image data. The PdfImage/PdfBitmap API is exclusively designed for embedding images within a PDF document. If you wish to save the image as a standalone file in your database, you can achieve this by converting the original image file into a byte[] array. Alternatively, if your goal is to export the PDF as an image, our ExportAsImage API can be employed to obtain the resulting image stream. This stream can then be directly uploaded to your database.
