.Net core 3.0 Reference to type 'Image' claims it is defined in 'System.Drawing' but it could not be found

[harissg]

The Code128BarcodeDraw Draw() method was working fine in the full .NET framework environment. However, as the project was ported over to the recent .net core 3.0 - It is complaining about Image not being available.

I understand there is a new System.Drawing.Common for .net core that is probably not being used in the BarcodeRenderingFramework....

Example:

                var bc = BarcodeDrawFactory.Code128WithChecksum;
               var img = bc.Draw(barcode, 60, 1); <<< error

Is there a workaround for this?

Hi, have you find a workaround for it pls? @harissg i am facing same problem

Hi, I ended up using https://github.com/Tagliatti/NetBarcode as a workaround and had to ditch BarcodeRenderingFramework. Hope this helps.
