A generic error occured in GDI+. Why is this exception being raised?

I'm trying to convert HTML Text to a .bmp image. I'm using the following code for performing the operation.

C#
Bitmap m_Bitmap = new Bitmap(400, 600);
PointF point = new PointF(0, 0);
SizeF maxSize = new System.Drawing.SizeF(500, 500);

HtmlRenderer.HtmlRender.Render(Graphics.FromImage(m_Bitmap), "<html><head></head><body><p>This is a sh*tty html code</p><p>This is another html line</p></body>", point, maxSize);

m_Bitmap.Save(@"C:\Test.bmp");


"HtmlRenderer" is an external namespace that is being used here. However, I'm getting an exception at the "m_Bitmap.Save(@"C:\Test.bmp");" line that says : A generic error occured in GDI+.

I'm unable to understand why this exception is being raised when the same code is running perfectly in my colleague's system.

Please help. Thanks a lot.

  1. Read the question carefully.
  2. Understand that English isn't everyone's first language so be lenient of bad spelling and grammar.
  3. If a question is poorly phrased then either ask for clarification, ignore it, or edit the question and fix the problem. Insults are not welcome.
  4. Don't tell someone to read the manual. Chances are they have and don't get it. Provide an answer or move on to the next question.
