I have a report that needs png images of signatures on it. I have the raw image data stored in my database which looks like this,
"‰PNGIHDR ´ àÀÄÙ IDATx^ì›ÅÒ…Ž8À9øþÿ!:‚³
gÃWï™>s[ciw$vWëê{ûckW35NW:õÅÑFÙÒi´@Z -H¤Ò+j/Юè›ËÛN¤Òi´@Z -Ðæ@H¤Òi´@Z -Xi$ ]é×—7ŸH¤Òi´@Z -€6Ç@Z -H¤Òi´ÀJ[ íJ¿¾¼ù´@Z -H¤Òi´9Òi´@Z -H"
This data is accessible by my datasource. When I set the value of my picturebox to this field and change the mimetype to "image/png" I get an error that reads "Invalid image data"
When I was using SSRS I would use PDF# and VB code to render this report into a pdf and the signatures into system.drawing.image objects and then draw them onto the pdf with x and y coordinates.
What I would really like to do is have this data render to an image in a Picturebox on my report so I no longer have to programatically place signatures onto a pdf of my report after is has been rendered as a pdf. I would like to see the signatures on my report in the reportviewer.
Is this possible? thank you!
