pdf files through vb.net

Question

I'm creating a program to generate PDF files in VB.Net.

Everything is working fine except that the image is being displayed with a blue background while the image provided doesn't have any.

Following are the lines of code being used:

sColor = IIf(mvarEncodeASCII85, ToASCII85(ImgColor),
    (System.Text.Encoding.GetEncoding(1252).GetString(ImgColor)))

What am I doing wrong?
the image is a .bmp image.

Answer 1

Your code snippet is quite mysterious, as it the reason why you'd post this in the 64-bit .NET forum.  I'd guess that you have to use the Bitmap.MakeTransparent() method.

You can use a third-party component like NetXtremePdf - PDF Component to generate PDF files.
