using (GdPictureImaging gdpictureImaging = new GdPictureImaging())
{
    int imageID = gdpictureImaging.CreateGdPictureImageFromFile("");
    if (gdpictureImaging.GetStat() == GdPictureStatus.OK)
    {
        // Get the file path of the loaded image file.
        string filePath = gdpictureImaging.GetLastPath();
        string pdfPath = System.IO.Path.ChangeExtension(filePath, ".pdf");
 
        // Get the current version of the GdPicture.NET toolkit.
        string version = (gdpictureImaging.GetVersion()).ToString();
        version = version.Insert(version.IndexOf('.') + 2, ".");
 
        // Define the document properties when saving, for example, the current version of the GdPicture.NET toolkit.
        gdpictureImaging.SaveAsPDF(imageID, pdfPath, false, "Saving image as PDF", "GdPicture ver." + version.ToString(), "For test", "image, pdf", "Orpalis");
 
        gdpictureImaging.ReleaseGdPictureImage(imageID);
    }
    else
        MessageBox.Show("An image can't be created.\nError: " + gdpictureImaging.GetStat().ToString(), "Error", MessageBoxButtons.OK, MessageBoxIcon.Error);
