Code to Export PPTX to SVG in C# without Interop
| using System; | |
| using System.Drawing; | |
| using System.IO; | |
| using Aspose.Slides; | |
| using Aspose.Slides.Export; | |
| namespace SlidesWatermark | |
| { | |
| class Program | |
| { | |
| static void Main(string[] args) | |
| { | |
| string PathForPptFile = @"Y:\Downloads\"; | |
| // Setting Product License | |
| License license = new License(); | |
| license.SetLicense(PathForPptFile + "Conholdate.Total.Product.Family.lic"); | |
| // Load the presentation to convert Slide to SVG in C# | |
| using (Presentation PptxToSVG = new Presentation("ExportPptxToSVG.pptx")) | |
| { | |
| for (var index = 0; index < PptxToSVG.Slides.Count; index++) | |
| { | |
| // Acces slides to export Slide as SVG using C# | |
| ISlide SlideToSVG = PptxToSVG.Slides[index]; | |
| using (FileStream fileStream = new FileStream($"slide-{index}.svg", FileMode.Create, FileAccess.Write)) | |
| { | |
| // Save Slide as SVG in C# | |
