Java getThumbnail evaluation copy

Aspose.Slides Product Family
1

I'm testing out the Slide.getThumbnail(Dimension) method using an evaluation copy of Aspose.Slides for Java. All of the created thumbnails only contain a blue background (the slide background is mostly blue) and the evalution version watermark. Does this work properly in the licensed version?

I would like to be able to use the getThumbnail method as a faster alterative to using saveToSVG to create the SVG and then using Batik to create the JPEG from the SVG. Is there a saveToJPEG comming in future releases or can getThumbnail be used to do this and maintain the quality acheived by using saveToSVG and Batik.

Dear austinps,

Thank you for considering Aspose.Slides.

Which version you are using? The evaluation and licensed version works the same way except evaluation version contains a watermark.

Have you checked Slide.getThumbnail on a single presentation or on different presentations? Is it malfunctioning on all of them?

Please provide your source presentation where it is malfunctioning.

Slide.getThumbnail method can be used to get images in JPEG.

Please see Creating Slide Thumbnail Image here

And also see Developer Guide here

I have got the getThumbnail method working.

I have not figured out what my original issue was. I was running a test application to test the functionality of using the saveToSVG and then using that SVG to create a JPEG using the Batik project as well as the getThumbnail functionality to test creating a JPEG straight from Aspose.Slides. When running it, I would get interesting SVG files at times and the thumbnails were incomplete.

When I just ran a test application that only tests getThumbnail, it worked fine.

I've attached some of the significant files if you want to take a look. I am happy with the results I'm seeing from getThumbnail and may not be using the saveToSVG/Batik functionality anyway.
