convert bitonal TIFF to bitonal PNG in C#
I believe the problem can be solved by checking that resized
bitmap is of PixelFormat.Format1bppIndexed
. If it's not, you should convert it to 1bpp bitmap and after that you can save it as black and white png without problems.
In other words, you should use following code instead of resized.Save(outputFilename, System.Drawing.Imaging.ImageFormat.Jpeg);
if (resized.PixelFormat != PixelFormat.Format1bppIndexed)
{
using (Bitmap bmp = convertToBitonal(resized))
bmp.Save(outputFilename, System.Drawing.Imaging.ImageFormat.Png);
}
else
{
resized.Save(outputFilename, System.Drawing.Imaging.ImageFormat.Png);
}
I use following code for convertToBitonal
:
private static Bitmap convertToBitonal(Bitmap original)
{
int sourceStride;
byte[] sourceBuffer = extractBytes(original, out sourceStride);
// Create destination bitmap
Bitmap destination = new Bitmap(original.Width, original.Height,
PixelFormat.Format1bppIndexed);
destination.SetResolution(original.HorizontalResolution, original.VerticalResolution);
// Lock destination bitmap in memory
BitmapData destinationData = destination.LockBits(
new Rectangle(0, 0, destination.Width, destination.Height),
ImageLockMode.WriteOnly, PixelFormat.Format1bppIndexed);
// Create buffer for destination bitmap bits
int imageSize = destinationData.Stride * destinationData.Height;
byte[] destinationBuffer = new byte[imageSize];
int sourceIndex = 0;
int destinationIndex = 0;
int pixelTotal = 0;
byte destinationValue = 0;
int pixelValue = 128;
int height = destination.Height;
int width = destination.Width;
int threshold = 500;
for (int y = 0; y < height; y++)
{
sourceIndex = y * sourceStride;
destinationIndex = y * destinationData.Stride;
destinationValue = 0;
pixelValue = 128;
for (int x = 0; x < width; x++)
{
// Compute pixel brightness (i.e. total of Red, Green, and Blue values)
pixelTotal = sourceBuffer[sourceIndex + 1] + sourceBuffer[sourceIndex + 2] +
sourceBuffer[sourceIndex + 3];
if (pixelTotal > threshold)
destinationValue += (byte)pixelValue;
if (pixelValue == 1)
{
destinationBuffer[destinationIndex] = destinationValue;
destinationIndex++;
destinationValue = 0;
pixelValue = 128;
}
else
{
pixelValue >>= 1;
}
sourceIndex += 4;
}
if (pixelValue != 128)
destinationBuffer[destinationIndex] = destinationValue;
}
Marshal.Copy(destinationBuffer, 0, destinationData.Scan0, imageSize);
destination.UnlockBits(destinationData);
return destination;
}
private static byte[] extractBytes(Bitmap original, out int stride)
{
Bitmap source = null;
try
{
// If original bitmap is not already in 32 BPP, ARGB format, then convert
if (original.PixelFormat != PixelFormat.Format32bppArgb)
{
source = new Bitmap(original.Width, original.Height, PixelFormat.Format32bppArgb);
source.SetResolution(original.HorizontalResolution, original.VerticalResolution);
using (Graphics g = Graphics.FromImage(source))
{
g.DrawImageUnscaled(original, 0, 0);
}
}
else
{
source = original;
}
// Lock source bitmap in memory
BitmapData sourceData = source.LockBits(
new Rectangle(0, 0, source.Width, source.Height),
ImageLockMode.ReadOnly, PixelFormat.Format32bppArgb);
// Copy image data to binary array
int imageSize = sourceData.Stride * sourceData.Height;
byte[] sourceBuffer = new byte[imageSize];
Marshal.Copy(sourceData.Scan0, sourceBuffer, 0, imageSize);
// Unlock source bitmap
source.UnlockBits(sourceData);
stride = sourceData.Stride;
return sourceBuffer;
}
finally
{
if (source != original)
source.Dispose();
}
}
