Render CGM to XAML via .NET
.NET API to Export CGM to XAML on Windows, macOS, and Linux without using Microsoft® PowerPoint
Aspose.Total for .NET is a powerful package of File Format Automation APIs that makes it easy to Render CGM to XAML in two simple steps. The first step is to use the PDF Processing API, Aspose.PDF for .NET, to transform the CGM file format to PPTX. This API provides a wide range of features to manipulate PDF documents, including the ability to convert between different file formats.
Once the CGM file has been converted to PPTX, the second step is to use the Presentation Processing API, Aspose.Slides for .NET, to convert the PPTX to XAML. This API provides a comprehensive set of features to create, manipulate, and convert presentations, including the ability to convert between different file formats. It also provides a range of features to work with text, shapes, images, and other elements of a presentation.
By using Aspose.Total for .NET, you can easily Render CGM to XAML in two simple steps. The PDF Processing API, Aspose.PDF for .NET, can be used to convert the CGM file format to PPTX. Then, the Presentation Processing API, Aspose.Slides for .NET, can be used to convert the PPTX to XAML. This package of File Format Automation APIs makes it easy to manipulate and convert between different file formats.
.NET API to Convert CGM to XAML
- Open CGM file using Document class
- Convert CGM to PPTX by using Save method
- Load PPTX file by using Presentation class
- Save the document to XAML format using
Save
method and set
Xamlas SaveFormat
Conversion Requirements
Install from command line as nuget install Aspose.Total or via Package Manager Console of Visual Studio with Install-Package Aspose.Total.
Alternatively, get the offline MSI installer or DLLs in a ZIP file from downloads .
Document document = new Document("input.cgm");
// save CGM as a PPTX
document.Save("PptxOutput.pptx", SaveFormat.Pptx);
// load PPTX with an instance of Presentation
Presentation presentation = new Presentation("PptxOutput.pptx");
// call save method while passing SaveFormat.Xaml
presentation.Save("output.xaml", SaveFormat.Xaml);
Get XMP Metadata from CGM File via .NET
While converting CGM to XAML, you might need extra XMP metadata information to prioritize your batch conversion process. For example you can get and sort your conversion documents based on creation date and process the documents accordingly. Aspose.PDF for .NET allows you to access a CGM file’s XMP metadata. To get a CGM file’s metadata, you can create a Document object and open the input CGM file. After that, you can get the file’s metadata using the Metadata property.
Document doc = new Document("input.cgm");
// get CGM XMP properties
Console.WriteLine(doc.Metadata["xmp:CreateDate"]);
Console.WriteLine(doc.Metadata["xmp:Nickname"]);
Console.WriteLine(doc.Metadata["xmp:CustomProperty"]);
Create Read Only XAML File via .NET
By using Aspose.Slides for .NET API, you can further enhance the features of your conversion application. One of the feature can be to create your output file read only to increase security. The API allows you to set your XAML file to Read-Only, which means users (after they open the presentation) see the Read-Only recommendation.
Presentation presentation = new Presentation("PptxOutput.pptx");
// make XAML read only
presentation.ProtectionManager.ReadOnlyRecommended = true;
// call save method while passing SaveFormat.Xaml
presentation.Save("output.xaml", SaveFormat.Xaml);
