Saving a PDF as a PNG file
Posted: Tue Mar 20, 2012 11:49 pm
Hi,
I have been looking for a way to convert the first page of a PDF to an Image. I've just downloaded the trial version of the VintaSoftImaging.NET SDK and have managed to find a way to do what I'm looking for:
This works perfectly, however when looking at the purchase page I am unsure which packages I need to buy. I know I need to reference the Vintasoft.PDF.dll in my project otherwise the Image fails to load the PDF.
I assume I need the VintaSoft Imaging .NET SDK with only the Imaging component, however from the VintaSoftPDF.NET Plug-in do I need the PDF Reader or Writer package. Is what I need from the VintaSoft.PDF.dll in both the reader and writer packages or do I need a specific package.
I have also filled in the online support form, however I'm keen to find out asap.
Many thanks in advance,
James

Code: Select all
'* load pdf to vintasoft image (requires vintasoft.pdf.dll)
Dim objVintasoftImage As New Vintasoft.Imaging.VintasoftImage(strPDFFileName)
'* save image as png
objVintasoftImage.Save("D:\test.png")
