Converting an XPS file to a WMF image in Java is a simple two-step process. The first step is to use the Aspose.PDF for Java API to export the XPS file to a JPEG image. This API is part of the Aspose.Total for Java package, which provides a comprehensive suite of tools for manipulating documents and images. Once the JPEG image is created, the second step is to use the Aspose.Imaging for Java Image Processing API to render the JPEG image to a WMF image. This API also comes with the Aspose.Total for Java package, and provides a range of features for manipulating images, including resizing, cropping, and rotating. With these two APIs, you can easily convert an XPS file to a WMF image in Java.
Convert XPS to WMF in a Single File via Java
The API also allows you to export XPS file to WMF to a single file. In order to convert all pages, you can first render your XPS document to one TIFF file and after that, you can export the TIFF file to WMF. 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 WMF format using save method.
Convert XPS to WMF With Watermark via Java
Using the API, you can also export XPS file to WMF with watermark in your WMF document. In order to add a watermark to you can first convert XPS 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 WMF format.
Convert & Rotate XPS to WMF File via Java
Using the API, you can also rotate the output WMF 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 .
