Hi,

I've found a free graphic DLL (for non-commercial use) called GFL SDK.
It seems to be quite powerful but my programming skills are not enough advanced to take advantage of this DLL.

You can find the english and french versions at this address :

Have Fun !

Try the free NViewLib.dll -- it may be easier for you:

Can I help at all? NViewLib works fine for me with JPEGs...

In fact it seems there is a problem with Progressive encoded JPEG as I obtain an error message when I tried to download this kind of picture. And the purpose of my program is to collect pictures from internet sites so I have to use the pix format as it comes !

You're right, NViewLib doesn't load them.

Try this on:
http://www.ampsoft.de/daten/twjpeg2.zip
Freeware (only for non-commercial use) Size: 94KB

It can handle progressive JPGs, import twain and more..
The sample has been coded in 'Profan' and the Comments are written in German, so you (or somebody else) have to translate/convert it.
But at least it will be very simple, i think.

(I have no skill in speaking/writing english

Sorry!)

Greetings,
Mischa

Thanks a lot Mischa !

That's really what I'm looking for ! I can't speak german but I had not much problem to understand how the Dll works. It's fast and efficient and you can load thumbnails too ! I didn't look further the other options but I will (especially TWAIN functions)

Thanks again !
