Why to Convert
The Portable Document Format (PDF) is a widely used file format for documents. It is used to store and share documents, and is often used for archiving and printing. However, the PDF format is not suitable for web-based applications, as it does not support interactive features. Therefore, it is necessary to convert PDF documents to other formats, such as Shockwave Flash (SWF).
How Aspose.Total Helps for PS to SWF Conversion
Integrating PS to SWF conversion feature inside Android applications is now possible with the help of Aspose.Total for Android via Java. This package includes two APIs, Aspose.PDF for Android via Java and Aspose.Slides for Android via Java, which can be used to export PS to PPTX and then convert PPTX to SWF.
In the first step, Aspose.PDF for Android via Java can be used to export PS to PPTX. This API provides a wide range of features, such as creating, editing, converting, and printing PDF documents. It also supports various image formats, including JPEG, PNG, TIFF, and BMP.
In the second step, Aspose.Slides for Android via Java can be used to convert PPTX to SWF. This API provides a wide range of features, such as creating, editing, converting, and printing presentations. It also supports various image formats, including JPEG, PNG, TIFF, and BMP.
Therefore, with the help of Aspose.Total for Android via Java, developers can easily integrate PS to SWF conversion feature inside their Android applications. This package provides a comprehensive set of APIs that can be used to create, edit, convert, and print documents and presentations.
Android API to Export PS to SWF
- 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 SWF format using
save
method and set
Swf
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 Swf format
presentation.save("output.swf", SaveFormat.Swf);
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 SWF File in Android Applications
After converting PS to SWF, 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 SWF file
Presentation presentation = new Presentation("output.swf");
// 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"));
