Export PS to CSV via Java
Convert PS file to CSV by using on premise Java API within any Java J2SE, J2EE, J2ME applications
Aspose.Total for Java is a comprehensive suite of APIs that enables developers to integrate a wide range of features into their Java applications. One of the features it offers is the ability to convert PostScript (PS) files to Comma Separated Values (CSV) files. This can be achieved in two steps.
The first step is to use Aspose.PDF for Java to render the PS file to an Excel Spreadsheet (XLSX) file. Aspose.PDF for Java is a powerful API that enables developers to create, edit, and convert PDF documents in Java applications. It can also be used to render PS files to XLSX files.
The second step is to use Aspose.Cells for Java to convert the XLSX file to a CSV file. Aspose.Cells for Java is a Spreadsheet Programming API that enables developers to create, manipulate, and convert spreadsheets in Java applications. It can be used to convert XLSX files to CSV files.
By using Aspose.Total for Java, developers can easily integrate PS to CSV conversion into their Java applications. It is a comprehensive suite of APIs that enables developers to integrate a wide range of features into their Java applications. It can be used to render PS files to XLSX files and then convert them to CSV files.
Convert PS File to CSV via Java
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.Cells for Java in your pom.xml.
Convert Protected PS to CSV via Java
If your PS document is password protected, you cannot convert it to CSV without the password. Using the API, you can first open the protected document using a valid password and convert it after it. In order to open the encrypted file, you can initialize a new instance of the Document class and pass filename and password as arguments.
Convert PS File to CSV with Watermark via Java
While converting PS file to CSV, you can also add watermark to your output CSV file format. In order to add a watermark, create a new Workbook to open the converted XLSX file. Select Worksheet via its index, create a Shape and use its addTextEffect function, set colors, transparency and more. After that you can save your XLSX document as CSV with Watermark.

What is PS File Format?
The PS (PostScript) file format is a page description language developed by Adobe Systems. It is commonly used for printing and is supported by a wide range of printers and imaging devices. PS files contain instructions that describe how elements such as text, images, and graphics should be rendered on a printed page.
PS files are created by applications that generate PostScript output, such as Adobe Illustrator, Adobe InDesign, or other graphics software. They are primarily used in professional printing workflows, where high-quality and consistent output is required.
The PS file format is based on a stack-based programming language, where commands and operands are placed on a stack and executed in a sequential manner. This allows for precise control over page layout, typography, color, and other printing parameters.
PS files are typically text-based and can be opened and edited with a text editor. They consist of a series of ASCII characters that represent the PostScript code. The code describes the arrangement and appearance of objects on a page, including text positioning, image placement, and graphical transformations.
While PS files are primarily used for printing, they can also be converted to other formats for digital distribution or further processing. For example, PS files can be converted to PDF (Portable Document Format) files, which are widely supported and can be easily viewed and printed on various devices.
What is CSV File Format?
A CSV (Comma-Separated Values) file is a commonly used format for storing tabular data, resembling a spreadsheet or database. It consists of data separated by commas, where each row represents a record. CSV files can be opened in text editors like Microsoft Notepad or Apple TextEdit, as well as spreadsheet programs such as Microsoft Excel or Apple Numbers.
When opened in a text editor, CSV data is displayed in a table format. Columns are separated by commas, and each row is separated by a new line. The first row, known as the header row, contains column names.
CSV files allow for easy data exchange between different applications. Data can be exported from spreadsheet programs like Excel or Numbers and saved in a CSV format. Similarly, CSV files can be imported into these programs, allowing data to be transferred from one system to another.
CSV files offer flexibility and compatibility due to their simple and universal structure. They are widely used for data migration, sharing information across platforms, and integrating data from various sources. The straightforward nature of CSV files makes them accessible for data manipulation, analysis, and processing by both humans and computer systems.
