Error when Choosing FORMAT_8BPP_INDEXED Format for Tiff Image in Python

Aspose.Slides Product Family
,

The following example code (from here) returns an error

options.pixel_format = slides.export.ImagePixelFormat.FORMAT_8BPP_INDEXED
** File “C:\Program Files\Python39\lib\enum.py”, line 429, in getattr**
** raise AttributeError(name) from None**
AttributeError: FORMAT_8BPP_INDEXED

Any idea what is wrong please?

import aspose.slides as slides

# Instantiate a Presentation object that represents a presentation file
pres = slides.Presentation("pres.pptx")

# Instantiate the TiffOptions class
options = slides.export.TiffOptions()

options.pixel_format = slides.export.ImagePixelFormat.FORMAT_8BPP_INDEXED

# Save the presentation to TIFF with specified image size
pres.save("Tiff_With_Custom_Image_Pixel_Format_out.tiff", slides.export.SaveFormat.TIFF, options)

Fixed it. It’s because

options.pixel_format = slides.export.ImagePixelFormat.FORMAT_8BPP_INDEXED

should be

options.pixel_format = slides.export.ImagePixelFormat.FORMAT8BPP_INDEXED

@bowespublishing,
No, it’s not. The original example is correct. I don’t see how it works for you.

Well it doesn’t work for me and the alternative version does!
