Render PS to OTT on Android via Java
Convert PS to OTT in mobile apps without installing any software
Why to Convert
The need to convert PostScript (PS) files to OpenType (OTT) is becoming increasingly important as more and more people are using mobile devices to access documents. OTT is a widely used format for text documents, and is supported by most mobile devices. Converting PS files to OTT allows users to view and edit documents on their mobile devices without having to install additional software.
How Aspose.Total Helps for PS to OTT Conversion
Aspose.Total for Android Java is a comprehensive package of APIs that can be used to integrate PS to OTT conversion feature in mobile apps. It includes two APIs that can be used to convert PS files to OTT. The first API is Aspose.PDF for Android via Java, which can be used to convert PS files to DOC. The second API is Aspose.Words for Android Java, which can be used to render DOC to OTT. Both APIs are easy to use and can be integrated into mobile apps quickly and easily. With Aspose.Total, developers can easily add PS to OTT conversion feature to their mobile apps.
Convert PS to OTT on Android via Java
Get Started with Android via Java APIs
You can easily use Aspose.Total for Android via Java directly from Maven and install Aspose.PDF for Android via Java and Aspose.Words for Android via Java in your applications.
Alternatively, you can get a ZIP file from downloads .
// load PS file with an instance of Document class
Document document = new Document("template.ps");
// save PS as a DOC
document.save("DocOutput.doc", SaveFormat.DOC);
// load DOC with an instance of Document
Document outputDocument = new com.aspose.words.Document("DocOutput.doc");
// call save method while passing SaveFormat.OTT
outputDocument.save("output.ott", SaveFormat.OTT);
Get PS File Information on Android via Java
Before converting PS to OTT, you might need information about the document including author, creation date, keywords, modify date, subject, and title. This information is helpful for the decision making for the conversion process. Using the powerful Aspose.PDF for Android via Java API, you can get all of it. To get file-specific information about a PS file, first get the DocumentInfo object using getInfo method. Once the DocumentInfo object is retrieved, you can get the values of the individual properties.
// load PS document
Document doc = new Document("template.ps");
// get document information
DocumentInfo docInfo = doc.getInfo();
// show document information
System.out.println("Author: " + docInfo.getAuthor());
System.out.println("Creation Date: " + docInfo.getCreationDate());
System.out.println("Keywords: " + docInfo.getKeywords());
System.out.println("Modify Date: " + docInfo.getModDate());
System.out.println("Subject: " + docInfo.getSubject());
System.out.println("Title: " + docInfo.getTitle());
Insert Endnotes in OTT Document in Android Apps
Apart from document conversion, you can also add a bunch of other features inside your Android Applications using Aspose.Words for Android via Java API. One of that feature is inserting endnotes and numbering in OTT document. If you want to insert a footnote or an endnote in a OTT document, please use DocumentBuilder.InsertFootnote method. This method inserts a footnote or endnote into the document. EndnoteOptions and FootnoteOptions classes represent numbering options for footnote and endnote.
// load document
Document doc = new Document("input.DOC");
// initialize document builder
DocumentBuilder builder = new DocumentBuilder(doc);
// add text in it
builder.write("Some text");
// insert footnote
builder.insertFootnote(FootnoteType.ENDNOTE, "Endnote text.");
// initialize endnote options
EndnoteOptions option = doc.getEndnoteOptions();
// set restart rule
option.setRestartRule(FootnoteNumberingRule.RESTART_PAGE);
// set position
option.setPosition(EndnotePosition.END_OF_SECTION);
// save the document to disk.
doc.save("output.ott", SaveFormat.OTT);
