title: What is the best Free/Open-Source image conversion library in .NET?
body: <p><a href="http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/system.drawing.aspx" rel="nofollow noreferrer">System.Drawing</a> has supports for very limited number of image formats</p>
  
  <p>What I am trying to do is, given an image of some format(JPG, TIFF, GIF, or PDF), conver them to other formats.</p>
  
  <p>I am specifically looking for a <strong>free</strong> or an <strong>open-source</strong> versions of library for <strong>.NET</strong>.<br />
  Google and Stack Overflow gave me results libraries such as LeadTools (which I abhor and not free) and C/C++ libraries.</p>
