C# Library for LaTeX to XPS

Aspose.TeX for .NET is a go-to mechanism for creating and processing LaTeX/TeX files in .NET applications. In addition, it also offers rich conversions to other popular file formats such as PDF, PNG, and more. This C# TeX API is developer-friendly and you can easily integrate it with third-party libraries. Moreover, there are features exposed by this .NET library to handle TeX/LaTeX documents programmatically. So, in this blog post, we will explore this C# library for LaTeX to XPS conversion with a real-time code example. Let’s start with the installation first.

C# TeX API Installation

The following single command will install Aspose.TeX for .NET in your .NET project. Run into the NuGet Package Manager.

Install-Package Aspose.TeX

Moreover, you can install it by downloading the DLL file.

C# Library for LaTeX to XPS - Code Example

Now, we are all set to write a code snippet to implement the LaTeX to XPS conversion programmatically.

The steps are:

  • Define the working directory.
  • Create conversion options for Object LaTeX format upon Object TeX engine by calling the ConsoleAppOptions method.
  • Specify a file system working directory for the output.
  • Initialize an object of the XpsSaveOptions class for saving in XPS format.
  • Create an instance of the XpsDevice class and initialize it with xpsStream.
  • Run LaTeX to XPS conversion by invoking the TeXJob constructor.
