Convert PDF to Image

To create an image-only PDF document:

  1. Create an empty document.
  2. Invoke CreatePage to add a blank page, sized to specific dimensions.
  3. Invoke AddImage to place the image onto the page as a PDF image stream. 

PDF Xpress™ does not offer viewing capabilities of images. ImagXpress® can be used in conjunction with PDF Xpress to provide image decompression, viewing, and format conversion.

To render a page of a PDF document to bitmap, dib, encapsulated postscript, or data, use the "RenderPage" methods (e.g., RenderPageToDib, RenderPageToEps, RenderPageToImageData, RenderPageToBitmap).

C# Example
Copy Code
            // This code demonstrates converting a single page PDF file to an image file
            Accusoft.PdfXpressSdk.PdfXpress pdfXpress1 = null;
            RenderOptions renderOpts = null;
            try
            {
                pdfXpress1 = new PdfXpress();
                pdfXpress1.Initialize();
                renderOpts = new RenderOptions();
                int index = pdfXpress1.Documents.Add("C:\\test.pdf");
                renderOpts.ProduceDibSection = false;
                int pageIndex = 0;
                imageXView.Image = ImageX.FromBitmap(imagXpress, pdfXpress1.Documents[index].RenderPageToBitmap(pageIndex, renderOpts));
            }
            catch (System.Exception)
            {
            }
            finally
            {
                if (null != pdfXpress1)
                {
                    pdfXpress1.Dispose();
                }
            }
