Convert PS file to APNG via C#
Export PS to APNG within .NET applications without using Adobe® Acrobat Reader or any other third party applications
Aspose.Total for .NET is a comprehensive suite of .NET components that enables developers to easily create, manipulate, and convert various file formats within their .NET applications. It includes components for working with PDF, Word, Excel, PowerPoint, Outlook, and other file formats. With Aspose.Total for .NET, developers can easily export PS to APNG image within any .NET applications in two simple steps.
The first step is to use Aspose.PDF for .NET to export PS to JPEG. Aspose.PDF for .NET is a powerful PDF manipulation API that enables developers to create, read, edit, and convert PDF documents within their .NET applications. It supports a wide range of features, including the ability to export PS to JPEG.
The second step is to use Aspose.Imaging for .NET to convert JPEG to APNG. Aspose.Imaging for .NET is an advanced image processing API that enables developers to create, edit, and convert images within their .NET applications. It supports a wide range of image formats, including JPEG, PNG, TIFF, and more. With Aspose.Imaging for .NET, developers can easily convert JPEG to APNG.
In summary, Aspose.Total for .NET makes it easy to export PS to APNG image within any .NET applications. By using Aspose.PDF for .NET to export PS to JPEG, and Aspose.Imaging for .NET to convert JPEG to APNG, developers can quickly and easily create APNG images from PS files.
Convert PS file to APNG via .NET
- Open PS file using Document class
- Initialize JpegDevice class object and render PS to JPEG by using Process method
- Load JPEG file by using Image class
- Save the document to APNG format using Save method
Get Started with .NET File Automation APIs
Install from command line as nuget install Aspose.Total or install directly from Package Manager Console of Visual Studio.
Alternatively, get the offline MSI installer or DLLs in a ZIP file from downloads .
Convert PS File to APNG in a Single File via C#
Using the API, you can also convert PS file to APNG to a single image file. In order to convert all pages, you can first render your PS document to one TIFF file and after that you can export TIFF file to APNG. 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 APNG format using Save method.
Convert PS to APNG With Watermark via C#
Using the API, you can also convert PS file to APNG with watermark in your APNG document. In order to add a watermark, you can first render your PS document to JPEG and add a watermark in it. To demonstrate the operation, you can load your converted JPEG image, add transformations using an object of Matrix class and draw a string as the watermark on the image surface using the Graphics class’ DrawString method. After adding the watermark in it, you can save the JPEG as APNG format. Below is a code example that demonstrates how to add a diagonal watermark to your document.
Convert & Rotate PS File to APNG via C#
Using the API, you can also rotate the output APNG 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. 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 factory method exposed by Image class and call the Image.RotateFlip method while specifying the appropriate RotateFlipType .

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 APNG File Format?
Animated Portable Network Graphics (APNG) is a file format for animated images. It is an extension of the Portable Network Graphics (PNG) format, adding support for animation. APNG files are similar to MNG files, but APNG is much simpler and has better support in web browsers. APNG was created as an extension of the PNG format to allow for animated images. It uses the same compression as PNG, so the file size is usually smaller than GIF. APNG also supports transparency and alpha compositing, like PNG. The main difference between APNG and other animated image formats is that APNG uses frame-based animation, while other formats (like GIF) use sprite-based animation. This means that each frame in an APNG file can be a different size and have a different transparency level. APNG also supports variable frame rates and frame delays, so the animation can be smoother than GIF. APNG is supported by most web browsers, including Firefox, Chrome, and Safari. Internet Explorer does not support APNG, but there is a plugin available.
