Examples

The following example works with the first laid-out page of a short report by using Page.GetImage.

textControl.Text = "Quarterly results\nRevenue increased by 12%.";
Page page = textControl.GetPages()[1];

var result = page.GetImage(Page.PageContent.Background, 10);
Console.WriteLine($"Get Image result: {result}");

page.Select();

textControl.Text = "Quarterly results" & vbCrLf & "Revenue increased by 12%."
Dim page As Page = textControl.GetPages().Item(1)

Dim result = page.GetImage(Page.PageContent.Background, 10)
Console.WriteLine($"Get Image result: {result}")

page.Select()

Remarks

When an SVG is added to the TextControl's ImageCollection, its original content is embedded unchanged in the SVG created with the GetImage method. This includes all script data that was part of the added SVG image.
