How to view saved multipage TIFF

Post by Almatrodi »

Hi

I have done:
1- Scan multiple page.
2- Save them as TIFF format to SQL image.
3- Add a PictureBox to form and bind it to the image field.

Now just what I see is the first page only. But, I don't know how to change to other pages.

Does anyone know hoe to view them?

Best regards.

Dear Alex

If found some sites. But the best was http://www.codeproject.com/KB/cs/multip ... iewer.aspx And the programmer has written it to load exist file. The change I did was just to Read the data from DB as bytes and save it to a MemoryStream. And, Then make picturebox to read from MemoryStream.

That's all..

Hello,

Yes, the Bitmap class allows to load pages from multipage TIFF file and you can use this solution if you have TIFF files created by VintaSoftTwain.NET Library.
Bitmap class has many limitations, for example you can't load pages with JPEG compression, you can't load 16-bpp gray images, etc. You can use VintaSoftImaging.NET Library if you want to load images from any TIFF files.

Dear Alex

At first thanks for your add. Because I am not familiar with graphic format files. And, yes I need to view the images that I did scan with VintaSoftTwain.Net and I does the job for me. Even, I am thinking to buy the VintaSoftImaging.NET Library if I feel that will be helping me.

Still as usual I have problems with my language Arabic.

Thanks alot.
