Hi,


Thanks for using our products.

The conversion of PDF to Images depends upon the structure and complexity of source PDF file and due to the input PDF file which you are using, the conversion process might be taking longer duration. Can you please share the source PDF file so that we can test the scenario at our end. We are sorry for this inconvenience.

PS, Aspose.Pdf for .NET is supported in multi-threaded environment but a single PDF file cannot be used in multiple threads. So as per your requirement, you need to load one PDF file in individual thread.

//get 10 pdf file


string[] files = Directory.GetFiles(workFolder, “*.pdf”);


//case 1: sigle thread will take about 7s


foreach (var file in files)

{

AsposeToImage(file);

}

//case 2: multiple thread will take 9s

System.Threading.Tasks.

Parallel.ForEach<string>(files, new Action<string>(AsposeToImage));

//case 3: also 9s

files.ToList().ForEach(s =>

{

Thread t = new Thread(new ParameterizedThreadStart(AsposeToImage));

t.Start(s);

}

);

void

AsposeToImage(object file)

{

//Aspose.Pdf.Kit 5.3.0.0

PdfConverter pdfConverter = new PdfConverter();

pdfConverter.BindPdf(file.ToString());

pdfConverter.DoConvert();

pdfConverter.StartPage = 1;

pdfConverter.Resolution = 96;

if (pdfConverter.HasNextImage())

{

pdfConverter.GetNextImage(workFolder +

Path.GetFileNameWithoutExtension(file.ToString()) + ".png");

}

pdfConverter.Close();

}
