Remarks

Currently supported formats are JPEG, PNG, GIF, TIFF, BMP, EMF, and WMF. Other raster formats can be embedded by decompressing image data and using other versions of Image.Create method.

By default the function will either pass-through data preserving the original compression or will compress data using Flate compression. It is possible to fine tune compression or to select a different compression algorithm using 'encoder_hints' object.
