I am looking for a code snippet that does just this, preferably in C# or even Perl.
I hope this not a big task ;)
The following will open C:\\presentation1.ppt
and save the slides as C:\\Presentation1\\slide1.jpg
etc.
If you need to get the interop assembly, it is available under 'Tools' in the Office install program, or you can download it from here (office 2003) . You should be able to find the links for other versions from there if you have a newer version of office.
using Microsoft.Office.Core;
using PowerPoint = Microsoft.Office.Interop.PowerPoint;
namespace PPInterop
{
class Program
{
static void Main(string[] args)
{
var app = new PowerPoint.Application();
var pres = app.Presentations;
var file = pres.Open(@"C:\Presentation1.ppt", MsoTriState.msoTrue, MsoTriState.msoTrue, MsoTriState.msoFalse);
file.SaveCopyAs(@"C:\presentation1.jpg", Microsoft.Office.Interop.PowerPoint.PpSaveAsFileType.ppSaveAsJPG, MsoTriState.msoTrue);
}
}
}
Edit: Sinan's version using export looks to be a bit better option since you can specify an output resolution. For C#, change the last line above to:
file.Export(@"C:\presentation1.jpg", "JPG", 1024, 768);
As Kev points out, don't use this on a web server. However, the following Perl script is perfectly fine for offline file conversion etc:
#!/usr/bin/perl
use strict;
use warnings;
use Win32::OLE;
use Win32::OLE::Const 'Microsoft PowerPoint';
$Win32::OLE::Warn = 3;
use File::Basename;
use File::Spec::Functions qw( catfile );
my $EXPORT_DIR = catfile $ENV{TEMP}, 'ppt';
my ($ppt) = @ARGV;
defined $ppt or do {
my $progname = fileparse $0;
warn "Usage: $progname output_filename\n";
exit 1;
};
my $app = get_powerpoint();
$app->{Visible} = 1;
my $presentation = $app->Presentations->Open($ppt);
die "Could not open '$ppt'\n" unless $presentation;
$presentation->Export(
catfile( $EXPORT_DIR, basename $ppt ),
'JPG',
1024,
768,
);
sub get_powerpoint {
my $app;
eval { $app = Win32::OLE->GetActiveObject('PowerPoint.Application') };
die "$@\n" if $@;
unless(defined $app) {
$app = Win32::OLE->new('PowerPoint.Application',
sub { $_[0]->Quit }
) or die sprintf(
"Cannot start PowerPoint: '%s'\n", Win32::OLE->LastError
);
}
return $app;
}
