Why to Convert

Converting text files to GIF images is a great way to make them more accessible and easier to share. GIF images are widely used in social media, websites, and mobile applications. They are also more visually appealing than plain text files, making them a great choice for displaying information.

How Aspose.Total Helps for TEX to GIF Conversion

Aspose.Total for Android Java is a comprehensive package of APIs that can help you integrate TEX to GIF conversion feature in your mobile apps. It includes two APIs that can be used for this purpose. The first API is Aspose.PDF for Android via Java, which can be used to convert TEX files to DOC. The second API is Aspose.Words for Android Java, which can be used to render DOC to GIF. With these two APIs, you can easily convert TEX files to GIF images and integrate them into your mobile apps.

Convert TEX to GIF on Android via Java

  1. Open TEX file using Document class
  2. Convert TEX to DOC by using save method
  3. Load DOC file by using Document class of Aspose.Words
  4. Save the document to GIF format using save method and set GIF as SaveFormat

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 TEX file with an instance of Document class
Document document = new Document("template.tex");
// save TEX 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.GIF
outputDocument.save("output.gif", SaveFormat.GIF);   

Get TEX File Information on Android via Java

Before converting TEX to GIF, 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 TEX 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 TEX document
Document doc = new Document("template.tex");
// 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 GIF 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 GIF document. If you want to insert a footnote or an endnote in a GIF 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.gif", SaveFormat.GIF);
