How to convert BMP Picture to JPG?

[fkauffman]

Hi,

I want to save my Picture1.picture to a GIF file.

I've searched this forum and the internet. But I only found a trial version off a .dll that puts its name in the picture. And another .dll that makes the CPU usages rize to 100%.

In this forum there were several sources that used the IJL.DLL. But Intel doesn't download this DLL anymore. Intel made some newer DLL's.

Could I find source code to use the new DLL's to save to GIF?

Or can I download the IJL.DLL somewhere?

Or can I find source code to save to GIF?


All help or information is appreciated !

Thanks,

Fedor

GDI+ is capable of reading and writing BMP, GIF, JPEG, PNG (natively) and more (with adapters).

Thanks,

I'm using VB6, never encountered the GDI+.

In my search for GDI+ I've found one of your reply's. Explaining that GDI+ is a C++ or .NET thing:

Yes, GDI+ can only be accessed via the .NET framework or the C++ wrapper classes.
You could write a VB6 library in C++ that exposes the GDI+ functionality to VB6...

Where do you think I could search for a library like you mentioned? (I'm not (yet) into C++)

Thanks,

Fedor

PS may the force be with the CornedBee

I don't think there is one. My reply was for the case that you use VB.NET.

I don't know other solutions for VB6 as I don't use any kind of VB. Only the C++ GDI wrappers, this is why I know.

Hi CornedBee,

Thanks for your help,

OK, I can't use the GDI+ from VB6.

I can save my picture as .BMP.
Is it an option to convert this file to .JPG with a executable made in C++ or .NET?

Is it an idea to go and search for such an executable?
