Example

Drawing text using image texture fill from file on a jpeg image.

using (GdPictureImaging gdpictureImaging = new GdPictureImaging())
{
    int imageID = gdpictureImaging.CreateGdPictureImageFromFile("input.jpg");
 
    // Draw the text in the top left corner of the image.
    gdpictureImaging.DrawTextTextureFromFile(imageID, "texture.bmp", "GdPicture.Net", 5, 5, 24, GdPicture14.FontStyle.FontStyleRegular, "Arial", true);
    gdpictureImaging.SaveAsJPEG(imageID, "output.jpg");
    gdpictureImaging.ReleaseGdPictureImage(imageID);
}
