C# API to Convert PS to GIF
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("template.ps");
// save PS as a DOC
document.Save("DocOutput.doc", SaveFormat.Doc);
// load Doc with an instance of Document
var outputDocument = new Aspose.Words.Document("DocOutput.doc");
// call save method while passing SaveFormat.Gif
outputDocument.Save("output.gif", SaveFormat.Gif);
Decrypt PS File using Owner Password via .NET
Before converting PS to GIF, if you want to decrypt your document you can do it by using the API. In order to decrypt the PDF file, you first need to create a Document object and open the PS using the owner’s password. After that, you need to call Decrypt method of the Document object. Finally, save the updated file using Save method of the Document object.
Document document = new Document("Decrypt.ps", "password");
// decrypt PS
document.Decrypt();
// save the decrypted document as doc
document.Save("Decrypt_out.doc");
Create ReadOnly GIF- File via .NET
In order to protect your GIF from editing and to prevent other people from editing sensitive and confidential information in your document, you can also set the protection of the document using the API. You can limit the ability to edit a document and only allow certain actions with it. This can be done using Aspose.Words for .NET API. It enables you to control the way you restrict the content using the ProtectionType enumeration parameter. You can set your document to read-only by using the following lines of code.
Document document = new Document("input.doc");
// apply document protection and set protection password
doc.Protect(ProtectionType.ReadOnly, "password");
// call save method while passing SaveFormat.Gif
document.Save("output.gif", SaveFormat.Gif);
