Is it possible, using only VB.NET code, to extract a single page from a
multipage tiff file?

multipage tiff file?

Yes, it is possible. For example, you can load a multipage tiff image into an image object and select page using the
SelectActiveFra me method in the image object.

Dim img As Image
Dim bmp As Image

img = Image.FromFile( OpenFileDialog1 .FileName)
intCurrPage = 2 'Select page 2
intNumPages = img.GetFrameCou nt(Imaging.Fram eDimension.Page )
img.SelectActiv eFrame(System.D rawing.Imaging. FrameDimension. Page, intCurrPage - 1)
bmp = New Bitmap(img, PictureBox1.Wid th, PictureBox1.Hei ght)

bmp now holds the selected page.

How will I know when I get there...
If I don't know where I'm going?

Looks promising, but I am uncertain as to the proper values of
PictureBox1.Wid th and PictureBox1.Hei ght. Does it matter?

I should have mentioned, this code will be part of a web service that
will return a file(page) as a bytearray to the calling client
application.

Thanks for your kind response.

Al,

Download and install the ASP.Net Resource Kit. It has examples similar to what you want to do.

The ImageService example is in c#, but it is easily converted.

I hope this helps.
