  1. How to draw image to EMF file using GDI+?


    I am new to GDI+. My problem is that when I draw an image into an EMF file, the image quality is very bad. If I use the DrawImage function to draw the image directly, the resulting image is very clear. However, I need to draw other cases such as rotated images or tile mode, scale, ... Therefore, I need to create a Gdiplus::TextureBrush to draw the image but the quality of the output image is very bad.-> Am I doing the right process? And is there any way I can improve the quality of the output image. Note that when I draw a bitmap file with the same code, the image quality is still good, so

  3. opening emf files

    Hello Pinksocks12,

    I am Jaspreet Singh.

    Windows 11 photo viewer (or windows 10) does not support emf files. Only paint can open emf files.

    How to draw image to EMF file using GDI+?

    Set "Photos" for opening .emf files in Windows 10

    Photo Viewer is exactly that, a Photo Viewer which is compatible with the common Photo formats i.e. JPG. etc.

    .emf files are the GDI render printer output file that can contain both vector graphics and bitmap elements and could hardly be described as common.

    Conversion of a file type into another file type by the use of a third program is as old as computing itself(I do it all the time with music files). Open it in Paint (free), save it as JPG. job done

    Or ask why can't Photo viewer handle PDFs? It's just a graphical image after all.
