Aspose.Total for .NET is a powerful package of File Format Automation APIs that can be used to easily convert PDF to POTM in two simple steps. The first step is to use the PDF Processing API, Aspose.PDF for .NET, to transform the PDF file format to PPTX. This API provides a wide range of features that allow you to manipulate PDF documents, such as creating, editing, converting, and merging PDF files.
Once the PDF 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 POTM. This API provides a comprehensive set of features that allow you to create, edit, and convert presentations, as well as manipulate the content of presentations. It also provides support for a wide range of presentation formats, including POTM.
Using Aspose.Total for .NET, you can quickly and easily convert PDF to POTM in two simple steps. The PDF Processing API, Aspose.PDF for .NET, can be used to convert PDF to PPTX, and the Presentation Processing API, Aspose.Slides for .NET, can be used to convert PPTX to POTM. This package of File Format Automation APIs provides a comprehensive set of features that allow you to manipulate and convert a wide range of file formats.
.NET API to Convert PDF to POTM
- Open PDF file using Document class
- Convert PDF to PPTX by using Save method
- Load PPTX file by using Presentation class
- Save the document to POTM format using
Save
method and set
Potm
as SaveFormat
Get Started with .NET File Format APIs
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.pdf");
// save PDF 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.Potm
presentation.Save("output.potm", SaveFormat.Potm);
Get XMP Metadata from PDF File via .NET
While converting PDF to POTM, 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 PDF file’s XMP metadata. To get a PDF file’s metadata, you can create a Document object and open the input PDF file. After that, you can get the file’s metadata using the Metadata property.
Document doc = new Document("input.pdf");
// get PDF XMP properties
Console.WriteLine(doc.Metadata["xmp:CreateDate"]);
Console.WriteLine(doc.Metadata["xmp:Nickname"]);
Console.WriteLine(doc.Metadata["xmp:CustomProperty"]);
Create Read Only POTM 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 POTM file to Read-Only, which means users (after they open the presentation) see the Read-Only recommendation.
Presentation presentation = new Presentation("PptxOutput.pptx");
// make POTM read only
presentation.ProtectionManager.ReadOnlyRecommended = true;
// call save method while passing SaveFormat.Potm
presentation.Save("output.potm", SaveFormat.Potm);
