Post subject:  GIF - Image could not be read.
I am encountering quite a few occurrences where a GIF image does not get read into the resulting pdf. They are not very large.

The pdf displays a gray box with a the following text in red: Image could not be read.


As far as I can tell there is no difference between the gif files that get displayed correctly and those that do not.


completeFilename = "W:\\Images\\21800-0042.GIF";
document.LastSection.AddPageBreak();
document.LastSection.AddImage(completeFilename);

I've attached one of the offending gif images.


Any ideas would be appreciated. Thank you.

Thanks for the sample file. I'll check it.

Thanks, in that particular series of 46 images, only 11 were displayed correctly in the pdf while the other 35 got the message: Image could not be read.


I can send more samples of good and bad if needed ... they are all very similar, same type content, same dimensions from 10K to 75K and they get displayed fine in an ASP.net web page.

I saved that file to disk - and it work fine with both builds (GDI+ and WPF).
I have no idea what could go wrong.

I am using MigraDoc.

I have references to MigraDoc.DocumentObjectMode_WPF, MigraDoc.Rendering-WPF and PDFSharp-WPF.

Should I be using something different?


using System;
using MigraDoc.DocumentObjectModel;
using MigraDoc.DocumentObjectModel.Tables;
using MigraDoc.DocumentObjectModel.Shapes;
using System.Collections;
using System.Text;
using System.Data;
