public byte[] Thumbnail { get; set; }
Exceptions
| exception | condition |
|---|---|
| InvalidOperationException | Thrown if the image is invalid or its format is unsupported for specific format of document. |
Remarks
For now this property is used only when a document is being exported to ePub, it’s not read from and written to other document formats.
Image of arbitrary format can be set to this property, but the format is checked during export.
Only gif, jpeg and png images can be used for ePub publication.
Examples
Shows how to add a thumbnail to a document that we save as an Epub.
Document doc = new Document();
DocumentBuilder builder = new DocumentBuilder(doc);
builder.Writeln("Hello world!");
// If we save a document, whose "Thumbnail" property contains image data that we added, as an Epub,
// a reader that opens that document may display the image before the first page.
BuiltInDocumentProperties properties = doc.BuiltInDocumentProperties;
byte[] thumbnailBytes = File.ReadAllBytes(ImageDir + "Logo.jpg");
properties.Thumbnail = thumbnailBytes;
doc.Save(ArtifactsDir + "DocumentProperties.Thumbnail.epub");
// We can extract a document's thumbnail image and save it to the local file system.
DocumentProperty thumbnail = doc.BuiltInDocumentProperties["Thumbnail"];
File.WriteAllBytes(ArtifactsDir + "DocumentProperties.Thumbnail.gif", thumbnail.ToByteArray());
