Usually this error gets thrown if you don't have GDI+ installed on your system. Please get GDI+ reditributable DLL from Micorsoft Website and install it in the same folder as ImagOMatix component. For the customers who bought enterprise version of the component, there was a dependency on MSVCP60.dll. This dependency can also cause this error message. This problem has been fixed. You can get newer build of this component that does not have this dependency. This fix only applies to version 2.2.1 or earlier.

If you are using ImagoMatix 2003 or prior you don't need to install MDAC 2.5. But for ImagoMatix 2004 Enterprise MDAC 2.5 is a requirement because it uses ADO.Stream object for manipulating image streams.

ImagoMatix.Net is a strongly named .Net assembly. You don't have to register it to use in a .Net application. But if you want to use the component as a COM object, then you can register it using regasm utility. Since Interop affects the performance of .Net assemblies, we strongly recommend using ImagoMatix 2004 for native Win32 applications.

If you are not planning to share the component across different applications, then you should put it in bin folder under your application. For convenience of Internet Service Providers (ISP) we put the component in GAC during install time.
