The process cannot access the file because it is used by another process.
If the image is open I get the above error.

Here is my code:

PdfContentEditor pdfContentEditor = new PdfContentEditor(pdfDocument);
pdfContentEditor.ReplaceImage(1, 1, AppSettings.GetValue(AppSettings.img) + @"\img.jpg");

using (MemoryStream ms = new MemoryStream())
{
pdfContentEditor.Save(ms);
result = ms.ToArray();
}
I try to add pdfContentEditor.Close, but it didn’t help.

I need a solution for production

I would appreciate your help

If you open the image file in image viewer and try to access same file by another process, you will get the same exception.

Could you please share some detail why you want to open the image and access it via Aspose.PDF?

Please also share your input PDF and image file here for testing. We will investigate this issue and provide you more information on it.

Is it possible to replace image without going to path routing, but with a string or base64?

Replace Image in Existing PDF File

var bytes = Convert.FromBase64String("....");
var contents = new MemoryStream(bytes);

// Open document
Document pdfDocument = new Document("input.pdf");
// Replace a particular image
pdfDocument.Pages[1].Resources.Images.Replace(1, contents);
// Save updated PDF file
pdfDocument.Save("output.pdf");
