* Due to the new PdfViewer's document model transition, there is a difference in the implementation between different assemblies version.

Description

How to export RadFixedPage to TIFF file.

Solution

To achieve this we can use the RadPdfViewer control form the UI for WPF suite to create images from the RadFixedDocument pages using the ThumbnailFactory class. q

The COM threading model for the application has to be a single-threaded apartment (STA). A STAThreadAttribute tag "[STAThread]" should be placed on the class.

private static void Main(string[] args) 
{ 
    PdfFormatProvider pdfProcessingProvider = new PdfFormatProvider(); 
    RadFixedDocument document = GetRadFixedDocument(pdfProcessingProvider); 
 
    byte[] data = pdfProcessingProvider.Export(document); 
 
    RadPdfViewer pdfViewer = new RadPdfViewer(); 
 
    PdfFormatProvider pdfViewerProvider = new PdfFormatProvider(new MemoryStream(data), FormatProviderSettings.ReadAllAtOnce); 
    pdfViewer.Document = pdfViewerProvider.Import(); 
 
    int pageNumber = 0; 
    RadFixedPage page = pdfViewer.Document.Pages[pageNumber]; 
 
    ThumbnailFactory factory = new ThumbnailFactory(); 
    ImageSource imageSource = factory.CreateThumbnail(page, page.Size); 
 
    Image image = new Image(); 
    image.Source = imageSource; 
 
    Grid container = new Grid(); 
    container.Background = Brushes.White; 
    container.Children.Add(image); 
    container.Measure(new Size(double.PositiveInfinity, double.PositiveInfinity)); 
    container.Arrange(new Rect(new Point(0, 0), container.DesiredSize)); 
 
    RenderTargetBitmap bitmap = new RenderTargetBitmap((int)PageLayoutHelper.GetActualWidth(page), (int)PageLayoutHelper.GetActualHeight(page), 96, 96, PixelFormats.Pbgra32); 
    bitmap.Render(container); 
 
    string exportedFileName = "Exported.tiff"; 
    using (FileStream fileStream = new FileStream(exportedFileName, FileMode.Create)) 
    { 
        BitmapEncoder encoder = new TiffBitmapEncoder(); 
        encoder.Frames.Add(BitmapFrame.Create(bitmap)); 
        encoder.Save(fileStream); 
    } 
}
