Cannot open a .tif with color using .Net Image or Bitmap classes
- by Tom Regan
I am attempting to open .tif files that have color in them (300 dpi, PixelFormat.Format24bppRgb) using the .Net Image and Bitmap classes. I always get an "invalid parameter" error when the tiffs have color (works fine for black and white tiffs). If anyone has source code on how to open a .tif with color in it I'd deeply appreciate it. Below is what I'm attempting to do; this also fails when calling Bitmap.FromStream:
using (FileStream fs = File.OpenRead(fileName))
{
using (Image img = Image.FromStream(fs)) {}
}
