// Convert PS file to PDF document.
// Learn more: https://docs.aspose.com/page/java/convert-ps/

// Initialize PsDocument with the name of PostScript file.
PsDocument document = new PsDocument(getDataDir() + "input.ps");

// If you want to convert Postscript file despite of minor errors set this flag
boolean suppressErrors = true;

//Initialize options object with necessary parameters.
PdfSaveOptions options = new PdfSaveOptions(suppressErrors);
// If you want to add special folder where fonts are stored. Default fonts folder in OS is always included.
options.setAdditionalFontsFolders(new String[] { "{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, java.awt.Dimension(595x842));
// or
//saveOptions.setSize(new java.awt.Dimension(595x842));
//If PostScript file contains some graphics written as Type3 font glyphs, but it is not actual glyphs
//the resulting PDF may be incorrect because of default value of options.ConvertFontsToTTF = true
//Try to set this
//options.setConvertFontsToTTF(false);

// Save document as PDF
document.saveAsPdf(getOutputDir() + "outputPDF_out.pdf", options);

//Review errors
if (suppressErrors) {
    for (Exception ex : options.getExceptions()) {
        System.out.println(ex.getMessage());
    }
}
