Write Text in to TIFF images

Thanks WERDNA...Itz working now..Thanks to Softair..too Now..Images with Pixel format "Format24bppRgb" is working fine,but for some other tiff images i am getting different format.--'Format1bppIndexed' and is not working. Kindly respond! Image newImage = Image.FromFile("C:\\vipin_water0013.tif") MessageBox.Show(newImage.PixelFormat.ToString()); Thanks. Vipin ;

Hello! I found the answer by myself already. newImage.Save("C:\\vip0005.tif",ImageFormat.Tiff); changed to... newImage.Save("C:\\vip0005new.tif",System.Drawing.Imaging.ImageFormat.Tiff);

Hello! I have copied your coding into a sample coding, but it performed the following error message during the compiling. Please tell me what I am missing? Image newImage = Image.FromFile("C:\\vip0005.tif"); String drawString = "Sample Text"; Font drawFont = new Font("Arial", 16); SolidBrush drawBrush = new SolidBrush(Color.Black); float x = 150.0F; float y = 50.0F; StringFormat drawFormat = new StringFormat(); drawFormat.FormatFlags = StringFormatFlags.DirectionVertical; Graphics g=Graphics.FromImage(newImage); g.DrawString(drawString, drawFont, drawBrush, x, y, drawFormat); newImage.Save("C:\\vip0005.tif",ImageFormat.Tiff); The type or namespace name 'ImageFormat' could not be found (are you missing a using directive or an assembly reference?)

On which line are you getting the generic gdi+ error? Is it saving or drawing? If it's saving, it might because you have the image loaded, and it might be locked, so try saving as different filename. It's really hard to know why generic gdi+ errors occur.

Hi Werdna, Thanks for the quick response..But I am getting an error Like..."A Generic Error Occured in GDI+" Herez the code.. private void button2_Click(object sender, System.EventArgs e) { Image newImage = Image.FromFile("C:\\vip0005.tif"); String drawString = "Sample Text"; Font drawFont = new Font("Arial", 16); SolidBrush drawBrush = new SolidBrush(Color.Black); float x = 150.0F; float y = 50.0F; StringFormat drawFormat = new StringFormat(); drawFormat.FormatFlags = StringFormatFlags.DirectionVertical; Graphics g=Graphics.FromImage(newImage); g.DrawString(drawString, drawFont, drawBrush, x, y, drawFormat); newImage.Save("C:\\vip0005.tif",ImageFormat.Tiff); } Please guide me.. Thanks Vipin

Image img = Image.FromFile("file.tif"); Graphics g = Graphics.FromImage(img); g.DrawString(... lookup docs for drawstring, many different ways...) img.Save("file.tif", ImageFormat.Tiff);
