FAQ
Errors On Visual Studio
If you get the error as follows:
“Could not load file or assembly 'RasterEdge.XDoc.TIFF’or one of its dependencies. An
attempt was made to load a program with an incorrect format.”
Please check your project configures as following ways:
1. If you are using the .NET Framework 4.0 dlls, please confirm that:
Right-click the project -> Properties ->
a. Application -> Target framework: .NET Framework 4 or higher
b. Build -> Platform target: x86 if using x86 dlls, x64 if using x64.
2. If you are using the .NET Framework 2.0 dlls, please confirm that:
Right-click the project -> Properties ->
c. Application -> Target framework: .NET Framework 3.0 or 3.5
d. Build -> Platform target: x86 if using x86 dlls, x64 if using x64.
Errors On IIS
If you configure IIS to run and 500.19 error occurs, then it may be caused by:
1. Not registered the .net framework to the iis. (One of reasons: install a .net framework before
the installation of iis.)
2. The site configured in IIS has no sufficient authority to operate. (Modify permission)
There are some solutions:
1. cd to C:\Windows\Microsoft.NET\Framework64\v2.0.50727,Command to re-register net
framework to the iis:aspnet_regiis-i.
2. Right-click the correspond site-> Edit Permissions -> Security -> Group or user names-> Edit ->
Add -> Add Everyone usersgiven Full Control permissions.
If you get the error as follows:
“Could not load file or assembly “RasterEdge.Imaging.Basic” or any other one assembly or one of
its dependencies. An attempt was made to load a program with an incorrect format.”
Please check your IIS configure as following ways:
a. If you are using the .NET framework 4.0 or higher dlls, confirm that Web.config is using the
content in Web(for .net4.0 or higher).Config file.
b. After checking first step, if you are still facing the issue, confirm that:
If you are using x64 dlls, “Application Pools” -> "Set Application Pool Defaults… "->" Enable 32-Bit
Applications" should be false.
If you are using x86 dlls, “Application Pools” -> "Set Application Pool Defaults…" -> "Enable 32-Bit
Applications" should be true.

Programmer Guide
TIFF Object Generator
Our RasterEdge.XDoc.TIFF dll allows developer create TIFF file from TIFF, PDF, Office, Open Office,
CSV, RTF, Text, Image and create empty TIFF file.
Extract TIFF document from TIFF file
There are two ways to extract TIFF file from source TIFF file.
First way:
1:Open an existing TIFF file.
2:Call method ExtractPages to extract a new TIFF file.
3:Call method Save/SaveToStream/SaveToBytes to save TIFF file.
The following demo code will show you how to complete the extraction:
C#
//open a TIFF file
String inputPath = @"F:\7Pages.tif";
String outputPath = @"F:\output.tif";
TIFFDocument tifDoc = new TIFFDocument(inputPath);
//define the page indexes to extract
int[] extractPageIndex = new int[] { 2, 4, 6 };
//extract page2, page4, page6,and use them to create a new TIFF file.
tifDoc.ExtractPages(extractPageIndex, outputPath);
Second way:
1: Call the static method GetOnePageDocument to extract a new TIFF file directly.
C#
//open a TIFF file
String inputFilePath = @"F:\input.tif";
String outputFilePath = @"F:\output.tif";
//get the first page from input,tif file, and use it to create a new TIFF file
TIFFDocument.GetOnePageDocument(inputFilePath, 0, outputFilePath);

Working with Annotation
Add Annotations
In order to add annotation to tiff files, you will need to add extra reference:
RasterEdge.Imaging.Annotation.dll
Three steps to add an annotation on the page:
1: Add RasterEdge.Imaging.Annotation dll to your reference.
2: Create a annotation through AnnotationGenerator
3: Add the annotation on the page.
There are 9 types annotation, and you can create them by calling the method below:
Method
Type
Line
AnnotationGenerator.CreateLineAnnotation()
Lines
AnnotationGenerator.CreateLinesAnnotation()
Image
AnnotationGenerator.CreateEmbeddedImageAnnotation()
FreeHand
AnnotationGenerator.CreateFreeHandLineAnnotation()
Ellipse
AnnotationGenerator.CreateEllipseAnnotation()
Rectangle
AnnotationGenerator.CreateRectangleAnnotation()
Polygon
AnnotationGenerator.CreatePolygonAnnotation()
Text
AnnotationGenerator.CreateTextAnnotation()
RubberStamp
AnnotationGenerator.CreateRubberStampAnnotation()
Table 1-1
The following demo code will show you how to add a text annotation to tiff file:
C#
//open a TIFF file
TIFFDocument tifDoc = new TIFFDocument(@"F:\input.tif");
TIFFPage page = (TIFFPage)tifDoc.GetPage(0);
//create a text annotation
TextAnnotation annotation = AnnotationGenerator.CreateTextAnnotation(10,
100F, 200F, 100F, "www.RasterEdge.com", new System.Drawing.Font("Arial",
12F));
//add it on the page
page.AddAnnotation(annotation);
tifDoc.Save(@"F:\output.tif");
Related API(s) (TIFFPage.cs):
public override void AddAnnotation(AnnotationHandler annoHandler);
Description:
Add annotation on the page.
Parameters:
Name
annoHandler
Description
An annotation object
Valid Value
Created by the Method in the Table 1-1
34
public void AddAnnotation(AnnotationHandler annoHandler, float zoomValue);
Description:
Add annotation on the page.
Parameters:
Name
Description
Valid Value
annoHandler
An annotation object
Created by the Method in the Table 1-1
zoomValue
magnification of the annotation
>0
Bitonal(1 bits per pixel) TIFF File Note:
To keep the original tiff file’s color depth, we will convert all the annotations to black and white
format.
Fill color:
The rectangle on your tiff file will be only an outline without setting the fill color or setting the fill
color with a very light color.
C#
private static AnnotationHandler CreateRectangleAnnotattion()
{
RectangleAnnotation rect =
AnnotationGenerator.CreateRectangleAnnotation(new
RectangleF(0, 0, 100, 100));
return rect;
}
Set the fill color with a dark color and there will be a pure black block on your tiff file.
C#
private static AnnotationHandler CreateRectangleAnnotattion()
{
RectangleAnnotation rect =
AnnotationGenerator.CreateRectangleAnnotation(new
RectangleF(0, 0, 100, 100));
//Create a fill rectangle
rect.Fill = new
RasterEdge.Imaging.Annotation.Basic.AnnotationBrush();
rect.Fill.FillType = FillType.Solid;
//Set a dark color and you'll get a pure black block annotation
rect.Fill.Solid_Color = new REColor(Color.Black);
return rect;
}
35
Set the fill color only to ARGB(255,182,182,182) can get you a pure white block on the tiff file.
C#
private static AnnotationHandler CreateRectangleAnnotattion()
{
RectangleAnnotation rect =
AnnotationGenerator.CreateRectangleAnnotation(new
RectangleF(0, 0, 100, 100));
//Create a fill rectangle
rect.Fill = new
RasterEdge.Imaging.Annotation.Basic.AnnotationBrush();
rect.Fill.FillType = FillType.Solid;
//Only set color to RGBA(255,182,182,182) and you can get a pure
white block
rect.Fill.Solid_Color = new REColor(Color.FromArgb(255, 182,
182, 182));
return rect;
}
36
Add Image Annotation
The following demo code will show you how to add an image annotation to tiff file:

//load an image
BaseImage image = new REImage(@"C:\logo.png");
//set the image annotation location
PointF position = new PointF(200f,200f);
//add image annotation on the specified page location
page.AddImage(image, position);
tifDoc.Save(@"C:\output.tif");
