TeX to XPS

Convert TeX to XPS via API Solution for C++.

How to Convert TeX to XPS Using C++

TeX is essentially a programming language based on macros. Users write plain text files with embedded commands (macros) that instruct the TeX engine on how to format the document. It was designed to create high-quality typography, especially for mathematical formulas and technical documents. TeX gives you precise control over layout, spacing, hyphenation, and the appearance of text and mathematical symbols. Users write plain text files with embedded commands (macros) that instruct the TeX engine on how to format the document. While powerful, writing complex documents directly in Plain TeX can be quite involved. So here we are with the API for transforming the foundational elements of scientific typesetting – from precise mathematical formulas to meticulously structured documents – into a visual format like XPS, all within your C++ ecosystem.

Aspose.TeX for C++ is engineered to handle the unique characteristics of TeX. Integrate this power directly into your software and move beyond the limitations of external conversion methods, embracing a streamlined workflow.

In order to convert TeX to XPS:

Use the Aspose.TeX for C++ API which is a feature-rich, powerful and easy-to-use document processing and conversion API for C++ platform.
You can download its latest version directly. Just open NuGet package manager, search for Aspose.TeX.Cpp and install. You may also use the Package Manager Console.

Steps to Convert TeX to XPS Using C++

Aspose.TeX makes it easy for developers to transform TeX files to XPS in just a few lines of code.

Instantiate the TeXOptions class.
Specify the file system working directory for the output by calling the set_OutputWorkingDirectory() method.
Initialize save options for the XPS format using the XpsSaveOptions class.
Instantiate the TeXJob class with a newly created XpsDevice object and run the TeX to XPS conversion using the Run() method.

Get Started with the C++ TeX API

Install from the command line typing nuget install Aspose.TeX.Cpp or via the Visual Studio Package Manager Console using Install-Package Aspose.TeX.Cpp.
Alternatively, get the DLLs in a ZIP file from downloads .

Select the target format

                            
// Create typesetting options for Object {{config}} format on Object TeX engine extension.
System::SharedPtr<TeXOptions> options = TeXOptions::ConsoleAppOptions(TeXConfig::{{configPrefix}}Object{{config}}());
// Specify the file system working directory for the output.
options->set_OutputWorkingDirectory(System::MakeObject<OutputFileSystemDirectory>(RunExamples::OutputDirectory));
// Create and specify save options.
options->set_SaveOptions(System::MakeObject<{{output camel}}SaveOptions>());

// Run {{config}} to {{output upper}} conversion.
System::MakeObject<Aspose::TeX::TeXJob>(System::IO::Path::Combine(RunExamples::InputDirectory, u"{{inputFile}}"),
    System::MakeObject<{{device}}Device>(), options)->Run();

TeX What is TeX File Format

TeX is not actually a format. It is both a programming language and also an interpreter engine that understands this language. A TeX file is a plain text file created using TeX syntax to be converted to some target format by being processed by a TeX engine. This output document may include graphics, tables, lists, formulas, and equations.

XPS What is XPS File Format

XPS format is similar to PDF format. Both are page description language (PDL) formats. EPS is based on HTML and not on PostScript language. The .eps file is capable to contain a markup of the document's structure along with the information on how the document would look like. There are also added instructions on how to print and render the document. The feature of the format is that it fixes the document's description which means that it will look the same no matter who and from what operational system opens it.
