It is widely used for creating web content, technical documentation, and other types of documents. On the other hand, the PPS (PowerPoint Show) format is a presentation format used by Microsoft PowerPoint. It is used to create and share presentations with animations, transitions, and other effects. Therefore, it is necessary to convert MD to PPS in order to create presentations from MD documents.

You can easily use Aspose.Total for Android via Java directly from Maven and install Aspose.PDF for Android via Java and Aspose.Slides for Android via Java in your applications.
Alternatively, you can get a ZIP file from downloads .
// load MD file with an instance of Document class
Document document = new Document("template.md");
// save MD as PPTX format
document.save("PptxOutput.pptx", SaveFormat.Pptx);
// instantiate a Presentation object that represents a PPTX file
Presentation presentation = new Presentation("PptxOutput.pptx");
// save the presentation as Pps format
presentation.save("output.pps", SaveFormat.Pps);
Open Password Protected MD File in Android Apps

Presentation presentation = new Presentation("output.pps");
// access the first slide
ISlide sld = pres.getSlides().get_Item(0);
// create a full scale image
BufferedImage image = sld.getThumbnail(1f, 1f);
// save the image to disk in PNG format
ImageIO.write(image, "PNG", new java.io.File("Thumbnail_out.png"));
