Incorrect text direction after download powerpoint from stream

Aspose.Slides Product Family
1


I have problem with text direction after I download from stream stored in DB. Here is the problem:

- After I download and save to local file, I open it and I got the message ‘Powerpoint found unreadable content’. After I click yes, the file can open, but the text direction is incorrect. I only get stream from DB without any update or change.

I attached the template and the result for you can investigate.

I’ve found out some topics related to unreadable content but, it doesn’t help my case.

Below is the code for download function:
PresentationEx fromTemplate = new PresentationEx(new MemoryStream(template));
this.Response.ContentType = “application/vnd.ms-powerpoint.presentation.12”;
this.Response.AppendHeader(“Content-Disposition”, “Attachment; filename=fromTemplate.pptx”);
this.Response.Flush();

System.IO.Stream st = this.Response.OutputStream;
fromTemplate.Write(st);

this.Response.End();

I appreciate for any help from you and customer support

Hi,

After I installed the latest version, the text direction issue is solved, but I still have some issues below:
- When I open the saved pptx, I got error message"Powerpoint found unreadable content in …". The detail msg “This file may have become corrupt or damaged for the following reasons:
Third-party XML editors sometimes create files that are not compatible with Microsoft Office XML specifications.
The file has been purposely corrupted with the intent to harm your computer or your data.”
- Another issue is can’t write custom document properties to the file. Before it works with my ppt file.

Please help me to resolve these issues.
Thanks,
GN

Hi GN.


I like to share that I have again verified the POTX file shared by you and have used the shared code snippet on my end. I have not been able to observe any issue while opening presentations in PowerPoint 2010. If there is any other set of presentation you are referring to then please share the sample presentations and code sample with us for further investigation. Please also share the generated corrupted output as well for reference.

I have attached the generated presentations and sample code for your kind reference.

Many Thanks,

Hi Mudassir,

I attached the testing template and the download file. I just tried to test the simple function.
You will see in the download file, I can’t get properties and also have error when open it.

Below is my code:
PresentationEx report = new PresentationEx(“F:\Projects\ES Reporting\CR_Template1.pptx”);
DocumentPropertiesEx dp = report.DocumentProperties;
foreach (SlideEx slide in report.Slides)
{
switch (slide.SlideNumber)
{
case 1:
case 2:
report.DocumentProperties[String.Format("{0}", slide.SlideId)] = 1;
break;
default:
report.DocumentProperties[String.Format("{0}", slide.SlideId)] = 0;
break;
}
}
// report.Write(“F:\Projects\ES Reporting\CR_Template_Download.pptx”);
report.Save(“F:\Projects\ES Reporting\CR_Template1_Download.pptx”, Aspose.Slides.Export.SaveFormat.Pptx);


Please let me know if I’m lacking of anything.

Thanks,
Giang

Hi Giang,


I have tried opening the generated file shared by you using PowerPoint 2010 and have not been able to observe the issue while opening the presentation. Secondly, I have also observed the added document properties and have encircled them in shared image. Can you please snapshot of your end along with PowerPoint version as I have not been able to reproduce issues on my end.

Many Thanks,
