Convert PS file to DXF via C#
Export PS to DXF 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 export PS to DXF image within any .NET applications. This suite includes Aspose.PDF for .NET and Aspose.Imaging for .NET, which are powerful tools for creating, editing, and converting various file formats.
Using Aspose.PDF for .NET, you can export PS to JPEG in just a few simple steps. This API provides a wide range of features that allow you to manipulate PDF documents, such as adding text, images, annotations, and more. It also supports various image formats, including JPEG, PNG, TIFF, and BMP.
Once you have exported the PS to JPEG, you can use Aspose.Imaging for .NET to convert the JPEG to DXF. This API provides a comprehensive set of features for image processing, such as resizing, cropping, rotating, and more. It also supports various image formats, including JPEG, PNG, TIFF, and BMP.
With Aspose.Total for .NET, you can easily export PS to DXF image within any .NET applications. This suite provides powerful tools for creating, editing, and converting various file formats. It also supports various image formats, allowing you to easily convert JPEG to DXF. With just two simple steps, you can quickly and easily export PS to DXF image.
Convert PS file to DXF 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 DXF 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 DXF in a Single File via C#
Using the API, you can also convert PS file to DXF 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 DXF. 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 DXF format using Save method.
Convert PS to DXF With Watermark via C#
Using the API, you can also convert PS file to DXF with watermark in your DXF 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 DXF format. Below is a code example that demonstrates how to add a diagonal watermark to your document.
Convert & Rotate PS File to DXF via C#
Using the API, you can also rotate the output DXF 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 DXF File Format?
The Autodesk Drawing Exchange Format (DXF) is a widely used file format developed by Autodesk for facilitating data interoperability between Autodesk software and other programs. DXF serves as a structured file format that stores drawing information as a collection of vector entities. These entities encompass various geometric shapes, such as points, lines, arcs, circles, polygons, and text. Additionally, DXF files also have the capability to support raster images.
First introduced in December 1982 as part of AutoCAD 1.0, DXF has undergone several revisions and extensions over the years. The latest revision is DXF R2018, which was introduced alongside AutoCAD 2018.
DXF files are stored as ASCII text files, allowing them to be viewed and edited in any text editor. However, dedicated programs designed for working with DXF files, such as AutoCAD, offer more comprehensive features for viewing and editing. When opened in a text editor, a DXF file is typically divided into three sections: the header, the drawing body, and the trailer. The header contains general information about the drawing, including its title, author, and creation date. The drawing body comprises the actual vector entities that constitute the drawing, while the trailer provides concluding information, such as the total number of entities in the file.
DXF files are conventionally saved with the .dxf file extension, and their versatility and widespread adoption have made them a standard for exchanging and sharing drawing data across various CAD and design applications.
