Syncfusion® Essential® DocIO is a .NET Word library used to create, read, and edit Word documents programmatically without Microsoft Word or interop dependencies. Using this library, you can convert Word to TIFF in C# and VB.NET. Steps to convert Word to TIFF using C#: Create a new C# console application project. Install Syncfusion.DocIO.WinForms NuGet package as a reference to your .NET Framework applications from the NuGet.org. Include the following namespace in the Program.cs file. C# using Syncfusion.DocIO.DLS; VB Imports Syncfusion.DocIO.DLS Use the following code to convert Word to TIFF. C# // Loads an existing Word document. WordDocument wordDocument = new WordDocument("Template.docx"); // Converts Word document to image Image[] images = wordDocument.RenderAsImages(ImageType.Bitmap); // Closes the Word document instance. wordDocument.Close(); #region Tiff conversion ImageCodecInfo encoderInfo = GetEncoderInfo("image/tiff"); // Initialize EncoderParameter that contain specified number of Encoderparameter objects EncoderParameters encoderParams = new EncoderParameters(2); // Initialize EncoderParameter EncoderParameter parameter = new EncoderParameter(Encoder.Compression, (long)EncoderValue.CompressionNone); encoderParams.Param[0] = parameter; // Initializes the new instance for EncoderParameter. parameter = new EncoderParameter(Encoder.SaveFlag, (long)EncoderValue.MultiFrame); encoderParams.Param[1] = parameter; Image tiff = null; for (int i = 0; i < images.Length; i++) { if (i == 0) { tiff = images[i]; // Saves the TIFF image into the local disk. tiff.Save("..//..//Output//WordToTiff.tiff", encoderInfo, encoderParams); } else { Image image = images[i]; // Initializes the new instance for EncoderParameter. parameter = new EncoderParameter(Encoder.SaveFlag, (long)EncoderValue.FrameDimensionPage); encoderParams.Param[1] = parameter; // Adds the subsequent image to save into the local disk. tiff.SaveAdd(image, encoderParams); } } #endregion VB ' Loads an existing Word document.Dim wordDocument As WordDocument = New WordDocument("..\..\Template.docx")' Converts Word document to imageDim images As Image() = wordDocument.RenderAsImages(ImageType.Bitmap)' Closes the Word document instance.wordDocument.Close()Dim encoderInfo As ImageCodecInfo = GetEncoderInfo("image/tiff")' Initialize EncoderParameters that contain specified number of EncoderParameter objectsDim encoderParams As EncoderParameters = New EncoderParameters(2)' Initialize EncoderParameterDim parameter As EncoderParameter = New EncoderParameter(Encoder.Compression, CLng(EncoderValue.CompressionNone))encoderParams.Param(0) = parameter' Initializes the new instance for EncoderParameter.parameter = New EncoderParameter(Encoder.SaveFlag, CLng(EncoderValue.MultiFrame))encoderParams.Param(1) = parameterDim tiff As Image = NothingFor i = 0 To images.Length - 1 If i = 0 Then tiff = images(i) ' Saves the TIFF image into the local disk. tiff.Save("..\..\Output\WordToTiff-1.tiff", encoderInfo, encoderParams) Else Dim image As Image = images(i) ' Initializes the new instance for EncoderParameter. parameter = New EncoderParameter(Encoder.SaveFlag, CLng(EncoderValue.FrameDimensionPage)) encoderParams.Param(1) = parameter ' Adds the subsequent image to save into the local disk. tiff.SaveAdd(image, encoderParams) End IfNext Include the following helper method. C# private static ImageCodecInfo GetEncoderInfo(String mimeType){ ImageCodecInfo[] encoders = ImageCodecInfo.GetImageEncoders(); foreach (ImageCodecInfo imageCodecInfo in encoders) { if (imageCodecInfo.MimeType == mimeType) return imageCodecInfo; } return null;} VB Private Shared Function GetEncoderInfo(ByVal mimeType As String) As ImageCodecInfo Dim encoders As ImageCodecInfo() = ImageCodecInfo.GetImageEncoders() For Each imageCodecInfo As ImageCodecInfo In encoders If imageCodecInfo.MimeType = mimeType Then Return imageCodecInfo Next Return Nothing End Function A complete working example of how to convert Word to TIFF using C# can be downloaded from convert Word to TIFF.zip Input Word document as follows. By executing the program, you will get the output TIFF as follows. Take a moment to peruse the documentation, where you can find basic Word document processing options along with features like mail merge, merge and split documents, find and replace text in the Word document, protect Word documents, and most importantly, PDF and image conversions with code examples.
