Export PS to TXT via Java
Convert PS file to TXT 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 that can be integrated is the ability to convert PostScript (PS) files to plain text (TXT) 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, convert, and manipulate PDF documents in Java applications. It supports a wide range of features, including the ability to render PS files to XLSX.
The second step is to use Aspose.Cells for Java to convert the XLSX file to a TXT file. Aspose.Cells for Java is a powerful spreadsheet programming API that enables developers to create, manipulate, and convert spreadsheets in Java applications. It supports a wide range of features, including the ability to convert XLSX files to TXT files.
By using Aspose.Total for Java, developers can easily integrate the ability to convert PS files to TXT files into their Java applications. The two-step process involves using Aspose.PDF for Java to render the PS file to an XLSX file, and then using Aspose.Cells for Java to convert the XLSX file to a TXT file. This makes it easy for developers to add this feature to their applications without having to write any additional code.
Convert PS File to TXT 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 TXT via Java
If your PS document is password protected, you cannot convert it to TXT 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 TXT with Watermark via Java
While converting PS file to TXT, you can also add watermark to your output TXT 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 TXT 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 TXT File Format?
A TXT (text) file is indeed a plain text file format used for storing and exchanging text-based information without any formatting or layout. It is a simple and widely supported file format that consists of a sequence of characters without any specific structure or metadata.
TXT files are commonly used for various purposes, such as creating and sharing documents, taking notes, writing memos, and storing configuration and log files. They are particularly useful for storing data that can be easily read and processed by computers or software programs, as they contain unformatted text.
One of the advantages of TXT files is their universal accessibility. They are supported by virtually all operating systems and applications, making them easy to open and view on different platforms. TXT files can be created and edited using any text editor, ranging from basic options like Notepad to more advanced ones like Sublime Text or Vim.
Due to their simplicity, TXT files have small file sizes compared to other file formats that include formatting or embedded objects like images or tables. This makes TXT files efficient for exchanging large amounts of text-based data, such as email messages or code snippets.
