I have a png file which I add a layer to, then try to save it again. Code as follows:
vect1.IO.LoadFromFile('f:\temp\image.png');
// Append a text layer vect1.LayersAdd( ielkText ); TIETextLayer(vect1.CurrentLayer).BorderColor := clInfoBk; TIETextLayer(vect1.CurrentLayer).BorderWidth := 1; TIETextLayer(vect1.CurrentLayer).FillColor := clWhite; TIETextLayer(vect1.CurrentLayer).Font.Color := clBlack; TIETextLayer(vect1.CurrentLayer).Alignment := iejCenter; TIETextLayer(vect1.CurrentLayer).Layout := ielCenter; vect1.CurrentLayer.PosX := 0; vect1.CurrentLayer.PosY := 57; vect1.CurrentLayer.Width := 128; vect1.CurrentLayer.Height := 14;
TIETextLayer(vect1.CurrentLayer).Font.Size := 8; TIETextLayer(vect1.CurrentLayer).Font.Name := 'Times New Roman'; TIETextLayer(vect1.CurrentLayer).Text := 'SOME WATERMARK'; TIETextLayer(vect1.CurrentLayer).SizeToText;
vect1.CurrentLayer.Width := 128; vect1.CurrentLayer.PosY := (128 - vect1.CurrentLayer.Height) div 2;
vect1.CurrentLayer.Transparency := 170;
vect1.Update;
vect1.LayersMergeAll(False); vect1.IO.savetofile('f:\temp\image_watermark.png', ioPng);
Upon saving, the error 'Error on creating PNG' is raised. Is there something wrong with my code? It doesn't happen for all files, just some. I'm attaching one of the affected files.
Thanks in advance.

Hi Ray
The source image has SamplesPerPixel=1 and BitsPerSample=16, so the PNG encoder tries to save the image as gray scale. But due to the watermark, the image is no longer gray scale, which causes the issue.
You can correct the SamplesPerPixel in the image, or you can email me for a fix, which automatically resolves it.

I see, thx. I'll just adjust the SamplesPerPixel then. |
