This short tutorial explores how to transform EPS to PNG using Java. It provides the details about the environment configuration, sequence of steps to be performed while writing the program, and a runnable application that can be used in any Java-supported environment. You will learn to convert the source file from EPS to PNG using Java without the presence of any other third-party tool or library using a couple of lines of codes where options will be explored to configure the conversion process as well.
Steps to Change EPS File to PNG using Java
- Set your development environment to add Aspose.PDF for Java from the Maven repository
- Load the source EPS using the Document class object
- Initialize a device object for the target image type
- Using the Process method in the PngDevice class render the first page of EPS to PNG image on the disk
These steps describe the process to convert EPS to PNG using Java. By following this stepwise procedure you will be able to write this converter within a few lines of codes only where first the template EPS file is to be loaded and then the respective device object is to be initialized according to the desired output image. Each device object contains a Process method that converts the EPS file to PNG and is used here to achieve the functionality.
Code to Turn EPS into PNG using Java
This code to transform EPS to PNG using Java starts with the required namespaces imports and then loads the source EPS file using the Document class object that has multiple overloaded constructors that take file name and password also if the loaded file is protected. In the next step we declare a PngDevice class object as we want to create a PNG image however if you want to create a different type of image then instantiate the respective device. The Process method is overloaded in each device and supports multiple options like you can select the required page to be rendered from the source EPS or load it from a stream instead of a file on the disk.
This topic has explained how to convert EPS to PNG however if you are interested in learning some other features like merging of PDF files, refer to the article on how to merge PDF files in Java.
