Solution 1

string pdfpath = Server.MapPath("PDFs");
string imagepath = Server.MapPath("Images");
Document doc = new Document();
try
{
PdfWriter.GetInstance(doc, new FileStream(pdfpath + "/Images.pdf", FileMode.Create));
doc.Open();

doc.Add(new Paragraph("GIF"));
Image gif = Image.GetInstance(imagepath + "/mikesdotnetting.gif");
doc.Add(gif);
}
catch (Exception ex)
{
//Log error;
}
finally
{
doc.Close();
}

Please format your code.

The code is from iTextSharp and Divakard3 was asking for pdfsharp.dll!

This code works well with TIFF files!
Your solution can be something like this:

string name = @"path\of\your\image";
string dest = @"path\of\destination";
// each source file separate
PdfSharp.Pdf.PdfDocument doc = new PdfSharp.Pdf.PdfDocument();

XImage img = XImage.FromFile(name);
img.Interpolate = false;
int width = img.PixelWidth;
int height = img.PixelHeight;
PdfSharp.Pdf.PdfPage page = new PdfSharp.Pdf.PdfPage
{
    Width = width,
    Height = height
};
doc.Pages.Add(page);
XGraphics xgr = XGraphics.FromPdfPage(doc.Pages[0]);

xgr.DrawImage(img, 0, 0, width, height);
img.Dispose();
xgr.Dispose();
//  save to destination file
FileInfo fi = new FileInfo(name);

doc.Save(dest + "\\" + name + ".PDF");
doc.Dispose();
