Why to Convert XML to PPT?

XML to PPT conversion is a useful feature for C++ developers who want to add a presentation layer to their applications. XML is a markup language used to store and transport data, while PPT is a presentation format used to create slideshows. By converting XML to PPT, developers can create visually appealing presentations with their data.

How Aspose.Total Helps for XML to PPT Conversion?

Aspose.Total for C++ is a comprehensive suite of APIs that enables developers to easily integrate XML to PPT conversion into their C++ applications. It includes two APIs, Aspose.PDF for C++ and Aspose.Slides for C++, which can be used to export XML to PPTX and convert PPTX to PPT respectively.

Using Aspose.PDF for C++, developers can export XML to PPTX in just two simple steps. First, they can load the XML file into the API and then export it to PPTX. Aspose.Slides for C++ can then be used to convert the PPTX file to PPT. This API also supports a wide range of features, such as creating, editing, and converting presentations.

Overall, Aspose.Total for C++ makes it easy for developers to integrate XML to PPT conversion into their C++ applications. It provides a comprehensive suite of APIs that can be used to export XML to PPTX and convert PPTX to PPT. This makes it a great choice for developers who want to add a presentation layer to their applications.

C++ API to Export XML to PPT

  1. Open XML file using Document class reference
  2. Convert XML to PPTX by using Save method function
  3. Load PPTX document by using Presentation class reference
  4. Save the document to PPT format using Save member function and set Ppt as 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 XML file with an instance of Document class
auto doc = MakeObject<Document>(u"template.xml");
// save XML 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 Ppt format
prs->Save(u"output.ppt", Aspose::Slides::Export::SaveFormat::Ppt);  

Change Password of XML Document via C++

In the process of rendering XML to PPT, you can open a password protected XML and also change its password. In order to change the password of a XML 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 XML Document
auto doc = MakeObject<Document>(L"input.xml", L"owner");
// change password of XML Document
doc->ChangePasswords(L"owner", L"newuser", L"newuser");
// save the document
doc->Save(L"output.Doc");

Add Images From Web in PPT File via C++

After converting XML to PPT, 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 PPT file

// instantiate a Presentation object that represents a PPT file
auto pres = System::MakeObject<Presentation>("output.ppt");
// 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.ppt", SaveFormat::Ppt);
