Hi
I was wondering if it was possible to convert a presentation slides into images using Java, it is possible could you please give me pointers.
Many thanks,
JediJide.
Dear Jedi,

Thanks for considering Aspose.Slides for JAVA
Yes, it is possible to take images of the slides using Aspose.Slides JAVA. Here is a complete code that takes a source presentation name and output the images of all slides in an output directory.
Just change the input/output directory name and source presentation name and run the code.
For general help, see Programmer’s Guide here.

CODE
public static void getThumbnails() throws Exception
{
//Input and output directory
String strPath="D:\\downloads\\test3oct\\";
//Source presentation name
String strFile="Jensen_v1.3-Test.ppt";
//Create a source presentation object
Presentation srcPres=new Presentation(new FileInputStream(new File(strPath + strFile)));
//Get the collection(array) of slides
Slides slds=srcPres.getSlides();
//Get the count of normal slides (excluding master slides)
int sldsCnt=slds.getLastSlidePosition();
//Iterate all normal slides
for(int i=1; i<=sldsCnt; i++)
{
//Get ith slide
Slide sld=srcPres.getSlideByPosition(i);
//Get the thumbnail image, 1.0f, 1.0f is the scaling factor
BufferedImage img=sld.getThumbnail(1.0f, 1.0f);
//Create a file for the image
File imgFile=new File(strPath + "slide" + i + ".jpg");
//Write the image into the file
ImageIO.write(img, "JPEG", imgFile);
}
}
Thanks for your response, I’ll give that a go, my ultimate aim is to convert the Java code into ColdFusion, is there any example anywhere of using the above code in ColdFusion?
