This code sample explains PS to PDF C++ Conversion
    // The path to the documents directory.
    System::String dataDir = RunExamples::GetDataDir_WorkingWithDocumentConversion();
    
    // Initialize PsDocument with the name of PostScript file.
    System::SharedPtr<PsDocument> document = System::MakeObject<PsDocument>(dataDir + u"input.ps");
    
    // If you want to convert Postscript file despite of minor errors set this flag
    bool suppressErrors = true;
    
    //Initialize options object with necessary parameters.
    System::SharedPtr<PdfSaveOptions> options = System::MakeObject<PdfSaveOptions>(suppressErrors);
    // If you want to add special folder where fonts are stored. Default fonts folder in OS is always included.
    options->set_AdditionalFontsFolders(System::MakeArray<System::String>({u"{FONT_FOLDER}"}));
    // Default page size is 595x842 and it is not mandatory to set it in PdfSaveOptions
    // But if you need to specify sizeuse following line
    //PdfSaveOptions options = new PdfSaveOptions(suppressErrorsnew, Aspose.Page.Drawing.Size(595x842));
    // or
    //saveOptions.Size = new Aspose.Page.Drawing.Size(595x842);
    
    // Save document as PDF
    document->SaveAsPdf(dataDir + u"outputPDF_out.pdf", options);
    
    //Review errors
    if (suppressErrors)
    {
        for (auto&& ex : System::IterateOver(options->get_Exceptions()))
        {
            System::Console::WriteLine(ex->get_Message());
        }
    }
