FAQ

  • Is Aspose.Slides for .NET Core a different product from Aspose.Slides for .NET?
    No. It is the same Aspose.Slides.NET NuGet package; this page covers using it from .NET Core and later cross-platform .NET, where the same code runs on Windows, Linux and macOS.
  • Will it run inside a Linux container without Microsoft Office?
    Yes. Nothing in the library shells out to PowerPoint, so a container image needs only the .NET runtime and the package itself.
  • Do rendering features such as PDF and image export work on Linux?
    Yes, though text rendering depends on the fonts present in the image. A minimal container often ships almost no fonts, so install the fonts your decks use, or embed them, before comparing output with a Windows machine.
  • Which formats can I convert to on .NET Core?
    The same set as on .NET Framework: PPT, PPTX, PPS, POT, PPSX, PPTM, PPSM, POTX, POTM and ODP for read and write, plus PDF, PDF/A, XPS and the image formats for export.
