Convert JPG to PNG with background transparency using ImageMagick.Net

Question

I need to convert a JPG image to PNG and change its white background to transparent instead. I am using ImageMagick.NET and I have found the following ImageMagick command that is supposed to do what I am trying to achieve:

convert image.jpg -fuzz XX% -transparent white result.png

I have tried converting this to c# but all I am getting is a png image with a white background. My code snippet:

using (var img = new MagickImage("image.jpg"))
{
     img.Format = MagickFormat.Png;
     img.BackgroundColor = MagickColors.White;
     img.ColorFuzz = new Percentage(10);
     img.BackgroundColor = MagickColors.None;
     img.Write("image.png");
}

Any kind of help will be greatly appreciated. Thank you!!

Most of the arguments on the command line are either properties or method on the MagickImage class. Your command would translate to this:

using (var img = new MagickImage("image.jpg"))
{
    // -fuzz XX%
    img.ColorFuzz = new Percentage(10);
    // -transparent white
    img.Transparent(MagickColors.White);
    img.Write("image.png");
}
