How to: Save Selected Image to a File

To save an image from the document to a file, use the ReadOnlyDocumentImageCollection.Get method to obtain a collection of images within the specified range, and use the OfficeImage.NativeImage property, which allows access to a native System.Drawing.Image object. This object has the Save method that accomplishes the task.

View Example

document.LoadDocument("MovieRentals.docx");
DocumentRange myRange = document.CreateRange(0,100);
ReadOnlyDocumentImageCollection images = document.Images.Get(myRange);
if (images.Count > 0)
{
    DevExpress.Office.Utils.OfficeImage myImage = images[0].PictureFormat.Picture;

    DevExpress.Drawing.DXImage image = myImage.DXImage;
    string imageName = String.Format("Image_at_pos_{0}.png", images[0].Range.Start.ToInt());
    image.Save(imageName, DXImageFormat.Png);
    System.Diagnostics.Process.Start("explorer.exe", "/select," + imageName);
}
