Hello,

I would like to convert any type of files like word,pdf,ppt,html to tiff files using C#. For this can you suggest me any tool or opensource used in C# code.

Thanks in Advance

What I have tried:

I am already using an Aspose lib to convert to pdf and then to tiff's but it is taking long time to process so looking for an alternative tool to do the same.

Google is the place to search for such tools.

The first problem is that such a tool has to render all those formats like the Aspose library. The next problem is that most - if not all - existing tools will not provide a TIFF output option.

However, you might search the web for tools able to render specific formats into some image format which can be then converted to TIFF. That should be at least faster then your current solution but requires to search for and use different tools (I don't know of a tool supporting all those formats besides Aspose).

The disadvantage of all those tools including Aspose is that they have to know the file format for proper rendering. If the format is extended, the tool has to be updated too. A solution for this problem is using the original application when that supports opening and printing a file and terminating afterwards by command line options (most do). All you need then is a virtual printer driver that redirects output to an image file which are available as paid and free products. These drivers are usually able to create TIFF files.
