Did you mean ref_orig->get_rowstride() * ref_orig->get_height() ?

std::string::c_str() copies the data in a new null terminated buffer, so 
this cannot work if your image contains null bytes. Maybe 
std::string::raw() will do the trick, but I advise to investigate 
another way of storing your pixels.
