Convert PDF to DICOM via Java
Export PDF file to DICOM within any within any Java J2SE, J2EE, J2ME applications without using Adobe® Acrobat Reader
You can convert pdf file to DICOM image in Java in two simple steps. Firstly, by using Aspose.PDF for Java , you can export PDF to JPEG. After that, by using Aspose.Imaging for Java Image Processing API, you can render JPEG to DICOM. Both APIs come under the Aspose.Total for Java package.
Convert PDF to DICOM in a Single File via Java
The API also allows you to export PDF file to DICOM to a single file. In order to convert all pages, you can first render your PDF document to one TIFF file and after that, you can export the TIFF file to DICOM. You can open the input file using Document class and create Resolution, TiffSettings, & TIFF device objects. You can get a single TIFF image using process method of TiffDevice class. Finally, you can load TIFF file using Image class and save it to DICOM format using save method.
Convert PDF to DICOM With Watermark via Java
Using the API, you can also export PDF file to DICOM with watermark in your DICOM document. In order to add a watermark to you can first convert PDF to JPEG and add a watermark in it. In order to add watermark, load an image file using the Image class, create an object of the Graphics class and initialize it with Image object, create a new Matrix object and set translation and transformation to the desired angle and add watermark using Graphics.drawString method. After adding the watermark in your image, you can save the JPEG as DICOM format.
Convert & Rotate PDF to DICOM File via Java
Using the API, you can also rotate the output DICOM image as per your needs. The Image.rotateFlip method can be used to rotate the image by 90/180/270-degrees and flip the image horizontally or vertically. The library provides simple methods to perform complex operations while encapsulating all ugly details. You can specify the type of rotation and flip to apply to the image. In order to rotate and flip the image, you can load the converted JPEG image using the Image class and call the Image.rotateFlip method while specifying the appropriate RotateFlipType .
