A generic error occurred in GDI+ on AddImage

Aspose.PDF Product Family
1

Adding a TIFF to a PDF with AddImage fails.
ErrorCode -2147467259
{“A generic error occurred in GDI+.”}

This seems to be the same issue reported in 23428 and 167407.
I need a workaround.

Aspose.Pdf.Document workingDoc = new Aspose.Pdf.Document();
workingDoc.Pages.Add();
Aspose.Pdf.Rectangle myRectangle = new Aspose.Pdf.Rectangle(10, 0, 575, 822);
workingDoc.Pages[1].AddImage(item, myRectangle); // Raises error -2147467259

It seems like the file you have shared is damaged or corrupted. Error.png (2.2 KB) Could you please share a correct file which can be viewed and used for testing.

Yes. I confirmed that Microsoft viewers have an unspecified problem displaying the file.
However,
IrfranView
FastStone Image Viewer
Snagit Editor
Multi-Page TIFF Editor
EscapeE
And our enterprise content manager
handle it fine.

We are checking this and will get back to you shortly.

Additional Information: The TIFF files are encoded with JPEG 6B compression. This compression has been deprecated by JPEG 7 compression. Regardless, we still need to process these files.
