如何使用apache-poi或其他3-rd库更改ppt演示模式？

Question

I've been working on a project which needs to display a PPT file in "kiosk" presentation mode. In a PPTX file, I can extract it like a zip file and rewrite the presProps.xml which contains properties like "p:showPr useTimings="0" p:present", and I can change the mode by rewriting "p:present" to "p:kiosk". And I have just figured out that I can use apache-poi OPCPackage to do that. (eg How do I edit the presProps.xml file with ApachePoi )

However, in a PPT file, I cannot do that like above. Is there any way that I can change the presentation mode of a PPT file. Or can I use apache-poi to convert a PPT file to a PPTX file so that the solution above can work?

Thx.

A *.ppt file is a PowerPoint file stored in binary file format. This is what org.apache.poi.hslf is made for. Entry point is the HSLFSlideShow .

All the office binary formats have in common that they are streams of Record data records to describe the document. For PowerPoint the specification is here: [MS-PPT]: PowerPoint (.ppt) Binary File Format .

For your requirement there is DocumentContainer having an optional SlideShowDocInfoAtom set. There F - fKioskMode (1 bit) can be set to set kiosk mode.

The DocumentContainer can be got via HSLFSlideShow.getDocumentRecord using apache poi . But then the support from apache poi ends because the Record SlideShowDocInfoAtom is not implemented until now.

But using an own class SlideShowDocInfoAtom which extends RecordAtom we can implement this.

Example:

import java.io.FileOutputStream;
import java.io.FileInputStream;
import java.io.ByteArrayOutputStream;
import java.io.OutputStream;
import java.io.IOException;

import org.apache.poi.hslf.usermodel.*;
import org.apache.poi.hslf.record.Record;
import org.apache.poi.hslf.record.RecordAtom;

public class HSLFSlideShowToKioskMode {

 // not really necessary, only for debug actions
 private static void hexDumpRecord(Record record) throws Exception {
  ByteArrayOutputStream out = new ByteArrayOutputStream();
  record.writeOut(out);
  out.flush();
  byte[] data = out.toByteArray();
  out.close();
  String hexDump = new java.math.BigInteger(data).toString(16);
  System.out.println(hexDump);
 }

 // method for get/set SlideShowDocInfoAtom
 private static SlideShowDocInfoAtom getSlideShowDocInfoAtom(HSLFSlideShow slideshow) throws Exception {
  SlideShowDocInfoAtom slideShowDocInfoAtomRecord = null;
  Record record = slideshow.getDocumentRecord().findFirstOfType(1025);
System.out.println(record.toString() + " type:" + record.getRecordType());
hexDumpRecord(record);
  if (record != null) { // we must not create new SlideShowDocInfoAtom
   // get present data
   ByteArrayOutputStream out = new ByteArrayOutputStream();
   record.writeOut(out);
   out.flush();
   byte[] data = out.toByteArray();
   out.close();
   // create new SlideShowDocInfoAtom from data
   slideShowDocInfoAtomRecord = new SlideShowDocInfoAtom(data);
   // replace old record with new SlideShowDocInfoAtom
   slideshow.getDocumentRecord().addChildBefore(
    slideShowDocInfoAtomRecord,
    record
   );
   slideshow.getDocumentRecord().removeChild(record);
  } else { // we must create new SlideShowDocInfoAtom
   slideShowDocInfoAtomRecord = new SlideShowDocInfoAtom();
   // add this SlideShowDocInfoAtom before EndDocumentAtom
   slideshow.getDocumentRecord().addChildBefore(
    slideShowDocInfoAtomRecord,
    slideshow.getDocumentRecord().findFirstOfType(1002) // 1002 = 0x3ea = RT_EndDocumentAtom
   );
  }
  return slideShowDocInfoAtomRecord;
 }

 public static void main(String[] args) throws Exception {

  HSLFSlideShow slideshow = new HSLFSlideShow(new FileInputStream("Presentation.ppt"));

  SlideShowDocInfoAtom slideShowDocInfoAtomRecord = getSlideShowDocInfoAtom(slideshow);
  slideShowDocInfoAtomRecord.setfKioskMode(true);
  slideShowDocInfoAtomRecord.setRestartTime(300000);
hexDumpRecord(slideShowDocInfoAtomRecord);

  FileOutputStream out = new FileOutputStream("PresentationKiosk.ppt");
  slideshow.write(out);
  out.close();
  slideshow.close();
