exact code:

try
{
Bitmap err_bmp = new Bitmap(200, 50, PixelFormat.Format16bppRgb555);
err_bmp.SetResolution(72, 72);
Graphics err_g = Graphics.FromImage(err_bmp);
Font err_f = new Font("Arial", 8);
SolidBrush err_b = new SolidBrush(Color.White);
err_g.FillRectangle(err_b, 0, 0, err_bmp.Width, err_bmp.Height);
err_b.Color = Color.Black;
err_g.DrawString(some_text, err_f, err_b, new RectangleF(new PointF(0,
0),
new SizeF(err_bmp.Width, err_bmp.Height)));
Response.ContentType = "image/bmp";
err_bmp.Save(Response.OutputStream, ImageFormat.Bmp);
...
}
catch (Exception err)
{
err_g.DrawString(err.Message, err_f, err_b, new RectangleF(new PointF(0,
0),
new SizeF(err_bmp.Width, err_bmp.Height)));
err_bmp.Save("c:\\err.bmp");
}

The last showed line inside try{} block (save to stream) raises "Generic
error occurred in GDI+".
But saving to a file (inside catch{} block) works well. I read the exception
text inside the saved bmp.
Any ideas?

I found solution. I had to save to the memory stream before.
But I thought that the memory stream is required only for PNG images???

Try disposing of your graphics object before saving to a stream.

I tried it, but it does not help.
