Convert PS to PPSM on Android via Java
Transform PS to PPSM within your Android Applications without using Microsoft® PowerPoint or Adobe® Acrobat Reader
Why to Convert
The Portable Document Format (PDF) is a widely used file format for documents. It is used to store documents in a format that is independent of the application software, hardware, and operating system. However, the PDF format is not suitable for presentations. To make presentations, the Portable Presentation Slide Markup (PPSM) format is used. Therefore, it is necessary to convert PDF documents to PPSM format for presentations.

Presentation presentation = new Presentation("output.ppsm");
// 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"));
