Hi

I use this code to convert pdf to List<image> but the resolution is not so high and the QR code inside the page is not detachable

Is there some way to improve the resolution (more DPI)?

 

public static List<ImageSource> ConvertPdfToImage(string filePath)
       {
           List<ImageSource> result = new List<ImageSource>();
           ThumbnailFactory tf = new ThumbnailFactory();
            
           using (Stream stream = File.Open(filePath, FileMode.Open))
           {               
               PdfFormatProvider formatProvider = new PdfFormatProvider(stream, FormatProviderSettings.ReadAllAtOnce);
               RadFixedDocument document = formatProvider.Import();
 
               foreach (RadFixedPage page in document.Pages)
               {
                   ImageSource pageImg = tf.CreateThumbnail(page, page.Size);
                    
                   result.Add(pageImg);
               }               
           }
           return result;
 
       }

 

Thank you

Hi Stefania,

The ThumbnailFactory class internally uses the .NET API to render an image from the document page and I am afraid that there is not much we can do to change the quality of the exported content. Is the image properly shown in RadPdfViewer?
