ImageFormat

Synopsis

This class represents the native format of a System.Drawing.Image object. It encapsulates a Guid uniquely identifying the format. There are a set of static properties that return a format object for the well-known image format types (e.g., Bmp, Jpeg, and MemoryBmp).

You can get the internal format of an image by using the RawFormat property.
