Using the latest version of GraphicsMill and .NET 4.0, I am getting the following error. I get the same error on the business card sample as well out of the box.

Code:
Aurigma.GraphicsMill.BitmapEmptyException was unhandled by user code

Here is the code I am using which is just a shameless copy from the business card sample project.

Code:
using System;
using Aurigma.GraphicsMill;

namespace AurigmaImageTest
{
    public partial class imagegen : System.Web.UI.Page
    {
        protected void Page_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)

            System.Collections.Hashtable updatedLayers = new System.Collections.Hashtable();

			updatedLayers.Add("FullName", "John Doe");

            // don't do anything yet
            Bitmap Bmp = RasterizePsd(@"c:\ImageTemplates\BusinessCard.psd", updatedLayers);
        }

        public static Aurigma.GraphicsMill.Bitmap RasterizePsd(string inputFilename, System.Collections.Hashtable updatedLayers)
        {

            // Open the reader object on the template file.
            Aurigma.GraphicsMill.Codecs.AdvancedPsdReader reader =
                new Aurigma.GraphicsMill.Codecs.AdvancedPsdReader(inputFilename);

            // Create the bitmap which will keep the result.
            Aurigma.GraphicsMill.Bitmap resultBitmap =
                new Aurigma.GraphicsMill.Bitmap();

            // Load the background layer into the result bitmap.
            // Background layer always has index = 1.
            Aurigma.GraphicsMill.Codecs.AdvancedPsdFrame frame;
            frame = (Aurigma.GraphicsMill.Codecs.AdvancedPsdFrame)reader.LoadFrame(1);
            frame.GetBitmap(resultBitmap);

            resultBitmap.Channels.DiscardAlpha(Aurigma.GraphicsMill.RgbColor.White);

            // Create intermediate bitmap which will keep the current layer.
            Aurigma.GraphicsMill.Bitmap currentLayerBitmap =
                new Aurigma.GraphicsMill.Bitmap();

            // Process all frames (except of first two ones) of the template file and 
            // draw them on the result bitmap. If it is placeholder which should 
            // be replaced, draw the text instead of the bitmap.
            //

            // PSD image (meaningless to us) and the second one stores the background
            // layer which is already loaded into the result bitmap.
            for (int i = 2; i < reader.FrameCount; i++)
            {
                frame = (Aurigma.GraphicsMill.Codecs.AdvancedPsdFrame)reader.LoadFrame(i);

                // Skip layers which we cannot process.
                if (frame.Type != Aurigma.GraphicsMill.Codecs.PsdFrameType.Unknown)
                {

                    // searching its name in the hash table of placeholder data.
                    bool isPlaceholder = updatedLayers[frame.Name] != null;

                        textFrame = (Aurigma.GraphicsMill.Codecs.AdvancedPsdTextFrame)frame;

                        // When drawing the text layer as a text string, keep in mind that
                        // Left and Top properties return position of the layer bounding box
                        // rather than coordinate of text output. While the DrawString method
                        // inserts small gap above the string, the Top property of the frame,
                        // does not include this gap (it returns the box which circumscribes 
                        // the text string).
                        //
                        // There is no need to recalculate the X coordinate, because Graphics Mill 
                        // does not any horizontal gaps between the first character in the string.

Hi,

Since the latest version of Graphics Mill, AdvancedPSD add-on supports different layers types. So, to resolve the problem with this sample you need replace this line:
Code:
// Skip layers which we cannot process.
if (frame.Type != Aurigma.GraphicsMill.Codecs.PsdFrameType.Unknown)

with the following one:
Code:
if (frame.Type == Aurigma.GraphicsMill.Codecs.PsdFrameType.Raster || frame.Type == Aurigma.GraphicsMill.Codecs.PsdFrameType.Text)

This post really helpful and useful. Though it's complicated to look at but I would really say that the following sample was informative one.
