Convert XPS file to IMAGE via C#
Export XPS to IMAGE within .NET applications without using Adobe® Acrobat Reader or any other third party applications
Using Aspose.Total for .NET you can easily export XPS to IMAGE image within any .NET applications in two simple steps. First of all, by using Aspose.PDF for .NET , you can export XPS to JPEG. After that, by using Aspose.Imaging for .NET Image Processing API, you can convert JPEG to IMAGE.
Convert XPS file to IMAGE via .NET
- Open XPS file using Document class
- Initialize JpegDevice class object and render XPS to JPEG by using Process method
- Load JPEG file by using Image class
- Save the document to JPEG2000 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 XPS File to IMAGE in a Single File via C#
Using the API, you can also convert XPS file to IMAGE to a single image file. In order to convert all pages, you can first render your XPS document to one TIFF file and after that you can export TIFF file to IMAGE. 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 JPEG2000 format using Save method.
Convert XPS to IMAGE With Watermark via C#
Using the API, you can also convert XPS file to IMAGE with watermark in your IMAGE document. In order to add a watermark, you can first render your XPS 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 JPEG2000 format. Below is a code example that demonstrates how to add a diagonal watermark to your document.
Convert & Rotate XPS File to IMAGE via C#
Using the API, you can also rotate the output IMAGE 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 XPS File Format
XPS is a file format that represents a fixed-layout document, which includes document content and print settings. XPS files are based on the XML Paper Specification, which was developed by Microsoft. XPS files are similar to PDF files, but they are not as widely supported by software and hardware.

Image files are computer files that store digital images. These files can be of different types, including bitmap, jpeg, gif, and tiff. Images are stored in these files with varying degrees of compression and quality. When images are opened on a computer, the file type determines which software program will be used to open and view the image.Bitmap files, also called raster images, are made up of a grid of tiny pixels, each of which is assigned a color value. When viewed at a distance, these pixels blend together to create the illusion of a continuous image. Bitmap files are typically large in size, since they contain so much detailed information.Jpeg files are a type of compressed image file. They use a mathematical algorithm to compress the image data, which reduces the file size without losing any of the image quality. Jpeg files are commonly used for storing and sharing photos online, since they can be easily compressed without losing any quality.Gif files are another type of compressed image file. They use a different algorithm than jpeg files, which allows them to store more colors and produce better image quality. However, gif files are limited to a maximum of 256 colors, so they are not suitable for storing high-quality images. Gif files are commonly used for animated images and simple graphics.Tiff files are uncompressed image files. This means that they do not use any compression algorithm, and as a result, they are much larger in size than other types of image files. Tiff files are typically used for storing high-quality images that need to be edited or printed.
