| 38 | +``` |
| 39 | + |
| 40 | +Now that we have the prerequisites and namespaces in place, let's move on to the step-by-step examples. |
| 41 | + |
| 42 | +## Converting EPUB to JPEG |
| 43 | + |
| 44 | +```csharp |
| 45 | + string dataDir = "Your Data Directory"; |
| 46 | + // Open an existing EPUB file for reading. |
| 47 | + using (var stream = File.OpenRead(Path.Combine(dataDir, "input.epub"))) |
| 48 | + { |
| 49 | + // Call the ConvertEPUB method to convert the EPUB file to image. |
| 50 | + Converter.ConvertEPUB(stream, new ImageSaveOptions(ImageFormat.Jpeg), "output.jpg"); |
| 51 | + } |
| 52 | +``` |
| 53 | +### Steps |
| 54 | + |
| 55 | +1. Provide the path to your EPUB file in the dataDir variable. |
| 56 | +2. Open the EPUB file for reading using a FileStream. |
| 57 | +3. Call the ConvertEPUB method, passing the EPUB stream, an ImageSaveOptions specifying the output format (JPEG), and the output file name ("output.jpg"). |
| 58 | +5. The EPUB file is converted to a JPEG image. |
| 59 | + |
| 60 | +In this example, we open an EPUB file, read its content, and convert it into a JPEG image format. The output image is saved as "output.jpg." |
| 61 | + |
| 62 | +## Converting EPUB to PNG |
| 63 | + |
| 64 | +You can easily convert EPUB files to various image formats like PNG, BMP, GIF, and TIFF using similar code structures. Here's an example for converting to PNG: |
| 65 | + |
| 66 | +```csharp |
| 67 | + |
| 68 | + string dataDir = "Your Data Directory"; |
| 69 | + using (var stream = File.OpenRead(Path.Combine(dataDir, "input.epub"))) |
| 70 | + { |
| 71 | + var options = new ImageSaveOptions(ImageFormat.Png); |
| 72 | + Converter.ConvertEPUB(stream, options, "output.png"); |
| 73 | + } |
| 74 | + |
| 75 | +``` |
| 76 | +### Steps |
| 77 | +1. Open the EPUB file for reading using a FileStream. |
| 78 | +2. Initialize an ImageSaveOptions object with the desired output format (in this case, PNG). |
| 79 | +3. Call the ConvertEPUB method, passing the EPUB stream, the image save options, and the output file name. |
| 80 | +4. The EPUB file is converted to the specified image format. |
| 81 | + |
| 82 | +## Specify Image Save Options |
| 83 | + |
| 84 | +You can customize the image output by specifying options like page size and background color. Here's an example: |
| 85 | + |
| 86 | +```csharp |
| 87 | + string dataDir = "Your Data Directory"; |
| 88 | + using (var stream = File.OpenRead(Path.Combine(dataDir, "input.epub"))) |
| 89 | + { |
| 90 | + var options = new ImageSaveOptions(ImageFormat.Jpeg) |
84 | 91 | { |
85 | | - string dataDir = "Your Data Directory"; |
86 | | - // Open an existing EPUB file for reading. |
87 | | - using (var stream = System.IO.File.OpenRead(dataDir + "input.epub")) |
| 92 | + PageSetup = |
88 | 93 | { |
89 | | - // Initailize the ImageSaveOptions with a custom page-size and a background-color. |
90 | | - var options = new Aspose.Html.Saving.ImageSaveOptions(Aspose.Html.Rendering.Image.ImageFormat.Jpeg) |
| 94 | + AnyPage = new Page() |
91 | 95 | { |
92 | | - PageSetup = |
93 | | - { |
94 | | - AnyPage = new Aspose.Html.Drawing.Page() |
95 | | - { |
96 | | - Size = new Aspose.Html.Drawing.Size(Aspose.Html.Drawing.Length.FromPixels(3000), Aspose.Html.Drawing.Length.FromPixels(1000)) |
97 | | - } |
98 | | - }, |
99 | | - BackgroundColor = System.Drawing.Color.AliceBlue, |
100 | | - }; |
101 | | - // Call the ConvertEPUB method to convert the EPUB file to JPG. |
102 | | - Aspose.Html.Converters.Converter.ConvertEPUB(stream, options, "output.jpg"); |
103 | | - } |
104 | | - } |
105 | | - public static void SpecifyCustomStreamProvider() |
| 96 | + Size = new Size(Length.FromPixels(3000), Length.FromPixels(1000)) |
| 97 | + } |
| 98 | + }, |
| 99 | + BackgroundColor = Color.AliceBlue, |
| 100 | + }; |
| 101 | + Converter.ConvertEPUB(stream, options, "output.jpg"); |
| 102 | + } |
| 103 | +``` |
| 104 | +### Steps |
| 105 | + |
| 106 | +1. Provide the path to your EPUB file in the `dataDir` variable. |
| 107 | +2. Open the EPUB file for reading using a `FileStream`. |
| 108 | +3. Create an `ImageSaveOptions` object and specify the desired output format (JPEG). |
| 109 | +4. Customize the page size and background color, if needed. |
| 110 | +5. Call the `ConvertEPUB` method, passing the EPUB stream, the image save options, and the output file name. |
| 111 | +6. The EPUB file is converted to an image with the specified options. |
| 112 | + |
| 113 | +## Specify a Custom Stream Provider |
| 114 | + |
| 115 | +If you need to manipulate the output stream, you can use a custom stream provider. Here's an example: |
| 116 | + |
| 117 | +```csharp |
| 118 | + string dataDir = "Your Data Directory"; |
| 119 | + using (var stream = File.OpenRead(Path.Combine(dataDir, "input.epub"))) |
| 120 | + { |
| 121 | + using (var streamProvider = new MemoryStreamProvider()) |
106 | 122 | { |
107 | | - string dataDir = "Your Data Directory"; |
108 | | - // Open an existing EPUB file for reading. |
109 | | - using (var stream = System.IO.File.OpenRead(dataDir + "input.epub")) |
| 123 | + Converter.ConvertEPUB(stream, new ImageSaveOptions(ImageFormat.Jpeg), streamProvider); |
| 124 | + |
| 125 | + for (int i = 0; i < streamProvider.Streams.Count; i++) |
110 | 126 | { |
111 | | - // Create an instance of MemoryStreamProvider |
112 | | - using (var streamProvider = new MemoryStreamProvider()) |
| 127 | + var memory = streamProvider.Streams[i]; |
| 128 | + memory.Seek(0, SeekOrigin.Begin); |
| 129 | + |
| 130 | + using (FileStream fs = File.Create($"page_{i + 1}.jpg")) |
113 | 131 | { |
114 | | - // Convert EPUB to Image by using the MemoryStreamProvider |
115 | | - Aspose.Html.Converters.Converter.ConvertEPUB(stream, new Aspose.Html.Saving.ImageSaveOptions(Aspose.Html.Rendering.Image.ImageFormat.Jpeg), |
116 | | - streamProvider); |
117 | | - // Get access to the memory streams that contain the resulted data |
118 | | - for (int i = 0; i < streamProvider.Streams.Count; i++) |
119 | | - { |
120 | | - var memory = streamProvider.Streams[i]; |
121 | | - memory.Seek(0, System.IO.SeekOrigin.Begin); |
122 | | - // Flush the page to the output file |
123 | | - using (System.IO.FileStream fs = System.IO.File.Create($"page_{i + 1}.jpg")) |
124 | | - { |
125 | | - memory.CopyTo(fs); |
126 | | - } |
127 | | - } |
| 132 | + memory.CopyTo(fs); |
128 | 133 | } |
129 | 134 | } |
130 | 135 | } |
131 | | - class MemoryStreamProvider : Aspose.Html.IO.ICreateStreamProvider |
| 136 | + } |
| 137 | + |
| 138 | +``` |

| 175 | +2. Open the EPUB file for reading using a `FileStream`. |
| 176 | +3. Create a `MemoryStreamProvider` to handle custom output streams. |
| 177 | +4. Call the `ConvertEPUB` method, passing the EPUB stream, the image save options (JPEG), and the custom stream provider. |
| 178 | +5. Iterate through the memory streams in the custom provider, save them to individual files. |
| 179 | +6. This example allows you to manipulate and save multiple output streams as needed. |
