Embedding GIF image in document

Aspose.Words Product Family
1

Hi,
I have some code that embeds images like jpg, tiff, and .bmp files into a word document and saving it as a pdf. However, I need to do gif files as well, and in the line of code where it says image.GetFrameCount, I get a GDI drawing exception. Any ideas?
Thanks
Code:

// Create Aspose.Words.Document and DocumentBuilder.
MemoryStream streamImage = new MemoryStream();
// The builder makes it simple to add content to the document.
Document doc = new Document();
DocumentBuilder builder = new DocumentBuilder(doc);
// Read the image from file, ensure it is disposed.
if (_strFileName != "" || _strFileName != null)
{
    using (Image image = Image.FromFile(_strFileName))
    {
        // Get the number of frames in the image.
        int framesCount = image.GetFrameCount(FrameDimension.Page);
        // Loop through all frames.
        for (int frameIdx = 0; frameIdx < framesCount; frameIdx++)
        {
            // Insert a section break before each new page, in case of a multi-frame TIFF.
            if (frameIdx != 0)
                builder.InsertBreak(BreakType.SectionBreakNewPage);
            // Select active frame.
            image.SelectActiveFrame(FrameDimension.Page, frameIdx);
            // We want the size of the page to be the same as the size of the image.
            // Convert pixels to points to size the page to the actual image size.
            PageSetup ps = builder.PageSetup;
            ps.PageWidth = ConvertUtil.PixelToPoint(image.Width, image.HorizontalResolution);
            ps.PageHeight = ConvertUtil.PixelToPoint(image.Height, image.VerticalResolution);
            // Insert the image into the document and position it at the top left corner of the page.

            builder.InsertImage(image,
            RelativeHorizontalPosition.Page,
            0,
            RelativeVerticalPosition.Page,
            0,
            ps.PageWidth,
            ps.PageHeight,
            WrapType.None);
        }
    }
    // Save the document to PDF.
    doc.Save(streamImage, SaveFormat.Pdf);
}
return streamImage;

Hi
Thank you for additional information. You can modify the code like shown below to resolve the problem:

///
/// Converts an image to PDF using Aspose.Words for .NET.
///
/// File name of input image file.
/// Output PDF file name.
public static void ConvertImageToPdf(string inputFileName, string outputFileName)
{
    // Create Aspose.Words.Document and DocumentBuilder.
    // The builder makes it simple to add content to the document.
    Document doc = new Document();
    DocumentBuilder builder = new DocumentBuilder(doc);
    // Read the image from file, ensure it is disposed.
    using (Image image = Image.FromFile(inputFileName))
    {
        // Get the number of frames in the image.
        int framesCount = 1;
        try
        {
            framesCount = image.GetFrameCount(FrameDimension.Page);
        }
        catch
        {
            // do nothing.
        }
        // Loop through all frames.
        for (int frameIdx = 0; frameIdx < framesCount; frameIdx++)
        {
            // Insert a section break before each new page, in case of a multi-frame TIFF.
            if (frameIdx != 0)
                builder.InsertBreak(BreakType.SectionBreakNewPage);
            // Select active frame.
            image.SelectActiveFrame(FrameDimension.Page, frameIdx);
            // We want the size of the page to be the same as the size of the image.
            // Convert pixels to points to size the page to the actual image size.
            PageSetup ps = builder.PageSetup;
            ps.PageWidth = ConvertUtil.PixelToPoint(image.Width, image.HorizontalResolution);
            ps.PageHeight = ConvertUtil.PixelToPoint(image.Height, image.VerticalResolution);
            // Insert the image into the document and position it at the top left corner of the page.

            builder.InsertImage(image,
            RelativeHorizontalPosition.Page,
            0,
            RelativeVerticalPosition.Page,
            0,
            ps.PageWidth,
            ps.PageHeight,
            WrapType.None);
        }
    }
    // Save the document to PDF.
    doc.Save(outputFileName);
}

Hope this helps.
Best regards,
