Why to Convert
The Portable Document Format (PDF) is a widely used file format for documents. It is a popular choice for sharing documents as it is platform independent and can be opened on any device. However, when it comes to presentations, the Portable Slideshow Format (POT) is the preferred choice. POT files are used to create presentations with animations, transitions, and other effects. Therefore, it is important to convert PDF documents to POT files for creating presentations.

Aspose.Total for Android via Java is a comprehensive suite of APIs that enables developers to create, manipulate, and convert various file formats. It includes Aspose.PDF for Android via Java and Aspose.Slides for Android via Java, which can be used to convert PDF documents to POT files.
The first step in the conversion process is to export the PDF document to a PPTX file. This can be done by using Aspose.PDF for Android via Java. This API provides a wide range of features for manipulating PDF documents, including the ability to export PDF documents to PPTX.
Once the PDF document has been exported to PPTX, Aspose.Slides for Android via Java can be used to convert the PPTX file to POT. This API provides a range of features for manipulating PPTX files, including the ability to convert PPTX files to POT.
By using Aspose.Total for Android via Java, developers can easily integrate the PS to POT conversion feature into their Android applications. This comprehensive suite of APIs provides all the necessary tools for creating, manipulating, and converting various file formats.
Android API to Export PS to POT
- Open PS file using Document class
- Convert PS to PPTX by using save method
- Load PPTX document by using Presentation class
- Save the document to POT format using
save
method and set
Pot
as SaveFormat
Get Started with Java File Format APIs
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 PS file with an instance of Document class
Document document = new Document("template.ps");
// save PS 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 Pot format
presentation.save("output.pot", SaveFormat.Pot);
Open Password Protected PS File in Android Apps
While loading PS file format, your document might be password protected. Aspose.PDF for Android via Java allows you open encrypted documents as well. In order to open the encrypted file, you can initialize new instance of the Document class and pass filename and password as arguments.
// open PS document
Document doc = new Document("input.ps", "Your@Password");
// save PS as PPTX format
document.save("PptxOutput.pptx", SaveFormat.Pptx);
Create Thumbnail Image of POT File in Android Applications
After converting PS to POT, you can also create thumbnail images of your output document. By using rich in feature Aspose.Slides for Android via Java you can generate thumbnail images of the slides by creating and instance of the Presentation class. After that, you can obtain the reference of any desired slide by using its ID or index and get the thumbnail image of the referenced slide on a specified scale.
// instantiate a Presentation object that represents a POT file
Presentation presentation = new Presentation("output.pot");
// 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"));
