EPPlus and Linux

System.Drawing.Common and libgdiplus

From version 6 and up EPPlus works on Linux platforms without calling System.Drawing.Common and the underlying libgdiplus library for image and font handling. Microsoft has deprecated System.Drawing.Common on non-windows platforms from .NET 6.

Note that EPPlus still has a package dependency to System.Drawing.Common, but it will only call this library on windows platforms or if explicitly configured to do so. You can test EPPlus 6 on various Linux distributions via our Docker sample.
