• The application is a console application.
• he will run win2000 up
• I will save the result after adding text to the file

Answer 1

• Create a bitmap with the new desired size

• Copy the original image at the top of the new bitmap

• Write the text you want in a new bitmap

Something like this: (untested)

var bmp = Bitmap.FromFile("orig.jpg"); var newImage = new Bitmap(bmp.Width, bmp.Height + 50); var gr = Graphics.FromImage(newImage); gr.DrawImageUnscaled(bmp, 0, 0); gr.DrawString("this is the added text", SystemFonts.DefaultFont, Brushes.Black , new RectangleF(0, bmp.Height, bmp.Width, 50)); newImage.Save("newImg.jpg");
