This class is used to represent an inline image in a Word document. The types of images that Word supports are jpg, png, bmp, and gif. Inline images are part of the InlineElements of an Element.

To create a new inline image, use the insert methods for inline images from the Element or Position class.

To get an existing inline image, use the Element.Elements property and check which elements are of type Element.Type.InlineImage.

The following sample demonstrates creating a inline image at the end of a new document and retrieving the first inline image of an existing document.

Examples:

[csharp]

// Insert a inline image at the end of a new document
WordApplication app = new WordApplication();
Document doc = app.Create();
InlineImage image = doc.InsertImageAfter(@"C:\sample.jpg");

// Get the first inline image of an existing document
WordApplication app = new WordApplication();
Document doc = app.Open(@"C:\sample.doc");
InlineImage firstImage = doc.Elements(Element.Type.InlineImage)[0];

[vbnet]

' Insert an inline image at the end of a new document
Dim app As New WordApplication()
Dim doc As Document = app.Create()
Dim image As InlineImage = doc.InsertImageAfter("C:\sample.jpg")

' Get the first inline image of an existing document
Dim app As New WordApplication()
Dim doc As Document = app.Open("C:\sample.doc")
Dim firstImage As InlineImage = doc.Elements(Element.Type.InlineImage)(0)
