How to Convert PS to ICS in Python

  • Open the source PS file using Document class
  • Call the save method while specifying output HTML file path and relevant HTML Save options as parameter. So your PS file is converted to HTML at the specified path
  • Now Load the saved HTML file using MailMessage.load
  • Call the save method with relevant file path. So finally the PS is converted

Conversion Requirements

  • For PS to ICS conversion, Python 3.5 or later is required
  • Reference APIs within the project directly from PyPI ( Aspose.Words and Aspose.Email )
  • Or use the following pip command pip install aspose.words and pip install Aspose.Email-for-Python-via-NET

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 ICS File Format?

An ICS file, also known as an iCalendar file, is a widely-used calendar file format employed by various email and calendar applications, including Microsoft Outlook, Google Calendar, and Apple Calendar. It serves as a container for storing calendar-related data and facilitates the exchange of such information between users and computers.

ICS files are commonly used for sharing calendar events, encompassing essential details like event dates, times, and locations. Furthermore, they can contain additional information like meeting requests and notifications. These files are typically transmitted via email or downloaded from websites.

The iCalendar format, in which ICS files are saved, adheres to a standardized structure, ensuring compatibility across different platforms and applications. Its text-based format makes it accessible for viewing and editing using a simple text editor. However, ICS files are predominantly opened and managed within dedicated calendar or email programs, providing a more user-friendly interface for interacting with the calendar data.

Microsoft Outlook, Apple Calendar, and Google Calendar stand out as some of the most popular applications that support the iCalendar format, enabling seamless integration and synchronization of calendar events across various devices and platforms. These programs offer users the ability to import, export, and subscribe to ICS files, enabling efficient calendar management and seamless collaboration with others.
