Render PS to PPSM within C++ Applications
Convert PS to PPSM within your C++ Applications without using Microsoft® PowerPoint
Are you a C++ developer looking to add to integrate PS to PPSM conversion feature inside your C++ applications? You can do it in two simple steps. You can export PS to PPTX by using Aspose.PDF for C++ . Secondly, by using Aspose.Slides for C++ , you can convert PPTX to PPSM. Both APIs come under Aspose.Total for C++ package.
C++ API to Export PS to PPSM
- Open PS file using Document class reference
- Convert PS to PPTX by using Save method function
- Load PPTX document by using Presentation class reference
- Save the document to PPSM format using
Save
member function and set
Ppsmas SaveFormat
Get Started with C++ File Automation APIs
Install from command line as nuget install Aspose.Total.Cpp or via Package Manager Console of Visual Studio with Install-Package Aspose.Total.Cpp.
Alternatively, get the offline MSI installer or DLLs in a ZIP file from downloads .
// load PS file with an instance of Document class
auto doc = MakeObject<Document>(u"template.ps");
// save PS as PPTX format
doc->Save(u"PptxOutput.pptx", SaveFormat::Pptx);
// instantiate a Presentation object that represents a PPTX file
SharedPtr<Presentation> prs = MakeObject<Presentation>(u"PptxOutput.pptx");
// save the presentation as Ppsm format
prs->Save(u"output.ppsm", Aspose::Slides::Export::SaveFormat::Ppsm);
Change Password of PS Document via C++
In the process of rendering PS to PPSM, you can open a password protected PS and also change its password. In order to change the password of a PS file, you must know the owner password of that document. You can load password protected PDF document with Aspose.PDF for C++ by specifying its owner password and use ChangePasswords method to change the password.
// load an existing PS Document
auto doc = MakeObject<Document>(L"input.ps", L"owner");
// change password of PS Document
doc->ChangePasswords(L"owner", L"newuser", L"newuser");
// save the document
doc->Save(L"output.Doc");
Add Images From Web in PPSM File via C++
After converting PS to PPSM, you can also add images from web to your output document. Aspose.Slides for C++ supports operations with images in these popular formats: JPEG, PNG, BMP, GIF, and others. You can add one or several images on your computer onto a slide in a presentation. This sample code in C++ shows you how to add an image to a PPSM file
// instantiate a Presentation object that represents a PPSM file
auto pres = System::MakeObject<Presentation>("output.ppsm");
// get slide
auto slide = pres->get_Slides()->idx_get(0);
// initialize Web Client
auto webClient = System::MakeObject<WebClient>();
// get image data
auto imageData = webClient->DownloadData(System::MakeObject<Uri>(u"[REPLACE WITH URL]"));
// add image
auto image = pres->get_Images()->AddImage(imageData);
// add picture frame
slide->get_Shapes()->AddPictureFrame(ShapeType::Rectangle, 10.0f, 10.0f, 100.0f, 100.0f, image);
// save updated file
pres->Save(u"updated.ppsm", SaveFormat::Ppsm);

What is PS File Format?
A PostScript file is a text file that contains a description of a page or document to be printed. It is typically created by a word processor or other application, and then saved in the PS format. The file can be printed by any printer that supports the PostScript language.PS files are usually stored in one of two ways: as a single page, or as a multi-page document. Single page PS files are typically used for printing a single page, such as a letter or an invoice. Multi-page PS files are used for printing documents that span multiple pages, such as a book or a report. When a PS file is printed, the printer reads the file and interprets the instructions contained within it. The printer then produces a printed version of the document.PS files are typically much larger than other types of files, such as PDFs. This is because they contain a lot of detailed information about the document to be printed. For this reason, it is important to make sure that your printer has enough memory to store the entire PS file.PS files can be opened and edited with a text editor, such as Microsoft Word or Adobe Acrobat. However, it is important to be careful when editing a PS file, as even a small change can result in the file being unreadable by the printer. If you need to make changes to a PS file, it is best to save a copy of the file first, so that you can revert back to the original if necessary.

Macro-enabled Slide Show PPSM format is a file format that allows you to create presentations that contain macros. Macros are small programs that can automate tasks, and they can be used in presentations to automate tasks such as playing a video or animating a slide. The PPSM format is similar to the PPTX format, but it uses a different file extension (PPSM instead of PPTX). PPSM files can be opened in PowerPoint 2013 or later. When you create a presentation in the PPSM format, you can add macros to the slides. To add a macro to a slide, you first need to create a macro in PowerPoint. To do this, click the File tab, then click Options. In the PowerPoint Options dialog box, click Customize Ribbon. In the Customize Ribbon dialog box, click the Macros tab, then click New.In the Macro dialog box, enter a name for the macro, then click the Browse button. In the Browse dialog box, locate the PowerPoint file that contains the macro code, then click Open.In the Macro dialog box, click the Options button. In the Macro Options dialog box, select the Run Macro On Slide Show check box, then click OK.Now that the macro is created, you can add it to a slide. To do this, click the Insert tab, then click the Macro button. In the Macro dialog box, select the macro that you want to insert, then click Insert. The macro will now be added to the slide. To run the macro, click the Slide Show tab, then click From Beginning. The macro will now run automatically when the slide is displayed.
