Image to Image .NET Examples

These examples demonstrate common Image to Image API workflows in .NET.

Basic examples

PNG file to JPEG file

using System;
using System.IO;

public class ApiTest
{
    public static void Main()
    {
        try
        {
            // Create an API client instance.
            pdfcrowd.ImageToImageClient client =
                new pdfcrowd.ImageToImageClient("demo", "demo");

            // Configure the conversion.
            client.setOutputFormat("jpg");

            // Run the conversion and save the result to a file.
            client.convertFileToFile("/path/to/logo.png", "logo.jpg");
        }
        catch(pdfcrowd.Error why)
        {

            throw;
        }
    }
}

PNG file to in-memory JPEG

using System;
using System.IO;
