Convert PostScript to JPEG in Java - PS to JPEG Converter

Whether it is a desktop or a web browser, you need third-party software to open PostScript files. On the other hand, you can view JPEG/JPG images easily in almost all popular operating systems such as Windows, macOS, or Linux. Aspose.Page for Java comes with a solution to this problem. It has exposed classes and methods that help developers build a PS to JPEG converter. However, we will go through the implementation and write a code snippet that converts PostScript to JPEG in Java programmatically. So, do not miss any section and read this article thoroughly.

We will cover the following points:

  1. Image Processing Service - API Installation
  2. Convert PostScript to JPEG in Java
  3. Convert PS File to JPEG Online

Image Processing Service - API Installation

The installation of this Java API would not take much time as it is quite easy to install. There is a huge stack of features that can be leveraged to develop a PS to JPEG converter for a business application. So, there are two ways to install this library, you can download this JAR file or you can use the following Maven configurations:

 <repositories>
     <repository>
         <id>AsposeJavaAPI</id>
         <name>Aspose Java API</name>
         <url>https://releases.aspose.com/java/repo/</url>
     </repository>
</repositories>
 <dependencies>
    <dependency>
        <groupId>com.aspose</groupId>
        <artifactId>aspose-page</artifactId>
        <version>22.6</version>
    </dependency>
</dependencies>

Please follow this guide in case you find any hassle in the installation.

Convert PostScript to JPEG in Java

So far, we have completed the installation of this image processing service. Now, we will head to writing a few lines of source code to achieve PS to JPEG/JPG conversion. For that purpose, we have a source PS file that will be used for this conversion.

The following steps show how to convert PostScript to JPEG programmatically:

  • The ImageFormat is set to JPEG.
  • Instantiate PostScript input stream by initializing an object of the FileInputStream class.
  • Create an instance of the PsDocument class and initialize it with the PostScript input stream.
  • If you want to convert a Postscript file despite minor errors set this suppressErrors flag.
  • Initialize a new instance of the ImageSaveOptions class with the suppressErrors parameter.
  • Create an object of the ImageDevice class that encapsulates document rendering to the image.
  • Invoke the save method to save the JPG file on the disk.
  • Get the resulting images in bytes by calling the getImagesBytes method.
  • Create an output stream by initializing an instance of the FileOutputStream class with the output image path.

You can copy & paste the following code snippet for PS to JPEG conversion in Java:

Once you run the server file, you will see a new JPEG file generated at the output address. However, you can see the output in the image below:
