Finding the Image Format

Here is a small code that I wrote to find the image format of an image.

This code will check for the raw image format of the image you select and will display in a pop up window.

Hope this helps.

1. using System.Drawing.Imaging;

1. private void button1_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
2. {
3.     openFileDialog1.ShowDialog();
4.     Image img = Image.FromFile(openFileDialog1.FileName);
5.     ImageFormat imgfmt = img.RawFormat;
6.     if (imgfmt.Equals(ImageFormat.Bmp))
7.         MessageBox.Show(ImageFormat.Bmp.ToString());
8.     else if (imgfmt.Equals(ImageFormat.Jpeg))
9.         MessageBox.Show(ImageFormat.Jpeg.ToString());
10.     else if (imgfmt.Equals(ImageFormat.Tiff))
11.         MessageBox.Show(ImageFormat.Tiff.ToString());
12.     else if (imgfmt.Equals(ImageFormat.Wmf))
13.         MessageBox.Show(ImageFormat.Wmf.ToString());
14.     else if (imgfmt.Equals(ImageFormat.Icon))
15.         MessageBox.Show(ImageFormat.Icon.ToString());
16.     else if (imgfmt.Equals(ImageFormat.Png))
17.         MessageBox.Show(ImageFormat.Png.ToString());
18.     else if (imgfmt.Equals(ImageFormat.Gif))
19.         MessageBox.Show(ImageFormat.Gif.ToString());
20. }
