Aspose.Total for Java is a comprehensive suite of components that enables developers to easily convert PCL to PPTM within any Java J2SE, J2EE, or J2ME application. This suite of components provides a powerful set of tools to help developers quickly and easily create, edit, and manipulate PCL and PPTM files.
The process of converting PCL to PPTM begins with the use of Aspose.PDF for Java. This component enables developers to export PCL to PPTX, which is a Microsoft PowerPoint file format. Once the PCL file has been converted to PPTX, developers can then use Aspose.Slides for Java to convert the PPTX file to PPTM. Aspose.Slides for Java is a PowerPoint Processing API that provides developers with a comprehensive set of tools to manipulate PowerPoint files.
Using Aspose.Total for Java, developers can easily convert PCL to PPTM within any Java J2SE, J2EE, or J2ME application. The process begins with the use of Aspose.PDF for Java to export PCL to PPTX. After that, Aspose.Slides for Java can be used to convert the PPTX file to PPTM. This suite of components provides developers with a powerful set of tools to quickly and easily create, edit, and manipulate PCL and PPTM files.
Java API to Convert PCL to PPTM
- Open PCL file using Document class
- Convert PCL to PPTX by using save method
- Load PPTX document by using Presentation class
- Save the document to PPTM format using
save
method and set
Pptm
as SaveFormat
Get Started with Java File Format APIs
You can easily use Aspose.Total for Java directly from a Maven based project and include Aspose.PDF for Java and Aspose.Slides for Java in your pom.xml.
Alternatively, you can get a ZIP file from downloads .
// load PCL file with an instance of Document class
Document document = new Document("template.pcl");
// save PCL 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 Pptm format
presentation.save("output.pptm", SaveFormat.Pptm);
Open Encrypted PCL File via Java
While loading PCL file format, your document might be password protected. Aspose.PDF for 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 PCL document
Document doc = new Document("input.pcl", "Your@Password");
// save PCL as PPTX format
document.save("PptxOutput.pptx", SaveFormat.Pptx);
Save PPTM File with Predefined View Type via Java
After converting PCL to PPTM, you can also add predefined view type for your presentation. Aspose.Slides for Java provides a facility to set the view type for the generated presentation when it is opened in PowerPoint through the ViewProperties class. The setLastView property is used to set the view type by using the ViewType enumerator.
// instantiate a Presentation object that represents a PPTX file
Presentation presentation = new Presentation("PptxOutput.pptx");
// set view type
presentation.getViewProperties().setLastView((byte) ViewType.SlideMasterView);
// save the presentation as Pptm format
presentation.save("output.pptm", SaveFormat.Pptm);
