GdPicture Imaging Forums

Hello,
we have problems using "stream methods" like GdPictureImaging.SaveAsStream
In Delphi the signature looks like this: _Stream is defined in mscorlib, but CoStream.Create creates an error (class not registered).
Does anybody know how to use or create a "_Stream" object in Delphi?

For images (GdPictureImaging) there is a SaveAsString method instead, why there is no SaveAsSting in GdPicturePDF (and LoadFromString)?

Thanks!

Hello,

You can not use method having managed Stream object as parameter from Delphi. You need an IStream parameter.

In the next release we will add a SaveAsIStream method that you will be able to call by using a TStreamAdapter wrapper.

I will post a snippet as soon the solution will be implemented.

Kind regards,

Loïc

Hello,
is there an new SaveAsIStream Method in Version 9?

Yes!

Unfortunately there is no chance to get a (OCR) PDF (from a picture) as a Stream, isn´t it?
The GdPictureImaging.SaveAsPDF Methods have only _Stream parameters..

Hello,

the next release will include an overload of this method that takes an IStream object as parameter.

kind regards,

Loïc
