PdfGraphics.DrawImage(Image, RectangleF) Method

Draws an image using the specified image bounds.

Namespace: DevExpress.Pdf

Assembly: DevExpress.Pdf.v19.1.Drawing.dll

Declaration

C#

public void DrawImage(
    Image image,
    RectangleF bounds
)

VB.NET

Public Sub DrawImage(
    image As Image,
    bounds As RectangleF
)

Parameters

Name	Type	Description
image	Image	An Image object that specifies the image to draw.
bounds	RectangleF	A RectangleF structure that specifies the image bounds.

Remarks

This method renders an image with its original resolution (DPI).

To add an image to the page, you need to call one of the PdfGraphics.AddToPageForeground, PdfGraphics.AddToPageBackground, and PdfDocumentProcessor.RenderNewPage overload methods. Note that these methods accept DPI values as arguments. The DPI values do not affect image quality and used for coordinate transformation only (world coordinates to page coordinates).

Important

The PdfGraphics will produce vector graphics for the EMF+ metafiles only. If a metafile contains not only GDI+ commands, it will be rasterized and rendered as a bitmap.
