Please check the Aspose.PSD Documentation

Also, if you want to find interesting features in Aspose.PSD please check our new PSD Tutorial Service

If you need the minimal code to convert PSD to PDF please check the following code:

    string sourceFile = @"Figure1.psd";
    string outputFile = @"Figure1.pdf";
    using (var image = (PsdImage)Image.Load(sourceFile, new PsdLoadOptions() { ReadOnlyMode = true }))
    {
        image.Save(outputFile, new PdfOptions());
    }

Also, please note that for the loading was used PSD Load ReadOnlyMode = true property.

We find bug that transparency of one layer wasn’t applied correctly in the editable mode, so I created an issue PSDNET-1527: Transparency of layers is not applied when we saving to PDF Format. When the issue will be fixed, you’'ll be notified. Until the fix it’s better to use ReadOnlyMode or remove Layer named “Layer 3” from you input file

@amolm
Please check if your app has the access to save on root folder for drive C. It’s better to try with path like string sourceFile = @“C:\MyTestFolder\Figure1.psd”;
string outputFile = @“C:\MyTestFolder\Figure1.pdf”;

And before the code execution please create MyTestFolder.
Also, please check if the file Figure1.psd is located in the place from where you try to load it.

The code works fine. Please check the following guide: Installation|Documentation

If you use .Net Core, or .Net 5, .Net 6 or higher you need to add additional dependencies:
