Reading PDF in as Image

[Scorcher2k]

I'm attempting to find a solution for reading a pdf in as an image for use. I've looked at the Cairo Tutorial example (17 PDF-Creation) from the vbRichClient page but found that the method used to read the pdf was to use libmupdf.dll which means that I can't use it because my software is not openly licensed.

I was curious if I've overlooked a solution for this being included in RC6 now since the tutorial was written with RC5 in 2013 or if anyone has an alternative solution. Thank you for any help!

As of Windows 10, the WinRT namespace Windows.Data.Pdf (or corresponding WinRT COM interfaces) is available to you to render pages of a PDF as an image.

As an alternative to libmupdf - you can use Googles (BSD-licensed) PDFium instead.

Here is a codebank entry I made for that: https://www.vbforums.com/showthread....-ImageExports)
