Aspose.Total for .NET is a powerful package of File Format Automation APIs that makes it easy to Render PS to OTP in two simple steps. The first step is to use the PDF Processing API, Aspose.PDF for .NET, to transform the PS file format to PPTX. This API provides a wide range of features that allow you to manipulate PDF documents in various ways, such as converting, creating, editing, and merging them.
Once the PS 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 OTP. This API provides a comprehensive set of features for creating, editing, and manipulating presentations in various formats, such as PPTX, PPT, ODP, OTP, and more. It also allows you to convert presentations from one format to another, such as from PPTX to OTP.
Using Aspose.Total for .NET, you can easily Render PS to OTP in two simple steps. The PDF Processing API, Aspose.PDF for .NET, is used to convert the PS file format to PPTX, and the Presentation Processing API, Aspose.Slides for .NET, is used to convert the PPTX to OTP. This package of File Format Automation APIs makes it easy to manipulate and convert documents and presentations in various formats.
.NET API to Convert PS to OTP
- Open PS file using Document class
- Convert PS to PPTX by using Save method
- Load PPTX file by using Presentation class
- Save the document to OTP format using
Save
method and set
Otp
as 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 .
Get XMP Metadata from PS File via .NET
While converting PS to OTP, 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 PS file’s XMP metadata. To get a PS file’s metadata, you can create a Document object and open the input PS file. After that, you can get the file’s metadata using the Metadata property.
Document document = new Document("Decrypt.ps", "password"); | |
document.Decrypt(); | |
document.Save("Decrypt_out.doc"); |
Create Read Only OTP 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 OTP file to Read-Only, which means users (after they open the presentation) see the Read-Only recommendation.
Presentation presentation = new Presentation("PptxOutput.pptx");
// make OTP read only
presentation.ProtectionManager.ReadOnlyRecommended = true;
// call save method while passing SaveFormat.Otp
presentation.Save("output.otp", SaveFormat.Otp);
Transforming PS File to OTP Programmatically : Use Cases
PDF (Portable Document Format) files are used to store document information, making them ideal for creating static documents and publications. However, when working with dynamic data, spreadsheets like Excel become essential for data visualization and analysis.
The conversion of PDF files into Excel formats is necessary to unlock the full potential of your data visualization and analysis capabilities. This conversion enables you to:
Use Cases:
- Business Intelligence Analysis: Convert PDF files to analyze business intelligence data, track sales trends, and identify patterns in data.
- Market Research Optimization: Use Excel to visualize market research data, optimize strategies, and measure ROI.
- Financial Reporting and Forecasting: Convert PDF files to create interactive financial reports, forecasts, and visualizations for stakeholders, enabling better decision-making.
- Scientific Research Collaboration: Use Excel to share and analyze scientific research data, such as experimental results and simulation outputs.
- Education and Training Content Creation: Convert PDF files to create interactive educational content, simulations, and training materials.
Note: I’ve used the same pattern for the conversion case, but with a different source format (PDF) and target format (Excel).
