Save to PDF in Aspose.Note

Introduction

In this tutorial, we’ll explore how to save documents to PDF format using Aspose.Note for .NET. Aspose.Note is a powerful library that enables developers to work with Microsoft OneNote files programmatically. We’ll cover the prerequisites, import namespaces, and provide step-by-step guides for saving documents to PDF in various page layouts.

Prerequisites

Before we begin, make sure you have the following:

• Visual Studio installed on your system.
• Aspose.Note for .NET library downloaded and installed. You can download it from here.
• Basic knowledge of C# programming language.

Import Namespaces

First, let’s import the necessary namespaces to our C# code:

using System;
using System.IO;

using Aspose.Note.Saving;

Now that we have the prerequisites covered and the namespaces imported, let’s proceed with saving documents to PDF in different page layouts.

Step 1: Save to PDF using Letter Page Settings

public static void SaveToPdfUsingLetterPageSettings()
{
    // The path to the documents directory.
    string dataDir = "Your Document Directory";

    // Load the document into Aspose.Note.
    Document oneFile = new Document(dataDir + "OneNote.one");

    var dst = Path.Combine(dataDir, "SaveToPdfUsingLetterPageSettings.pdf");

    // Save the document.
    oneFile.Save(dst, new PdfSaveOptions() { PageSettings = PageSettings.Letter });

    Console.WriteLine("\nOneNote document saved successfully.\nFile saved at " + dst);
}

Explanation:

• We load the OneNote document into Aspose.Note.
• Define the destination path for the saved PDF file.
• Save the document to PDF using PdfSaveOptions with PageSettings set to Letter.

Step 2: Save to PDF using A4 Page Settings Without Height Limit

public static void SaveToPdfUsingA4PageSettingsWithoutHeightLimit()
{
    // The path to the documents directory.
    string dataDir = "Your Document Directory";

    // Load the document into Aspose.Note.
    Document oneFile = new Document(dataDir + "OneNote.one");

    var dst = Path.Combine(dataDir, "SaveToPdfUsingA4PageSettingsWithoutHeightLimit.pdf");

    // Save the document.
    oneFile.Save(dst, new PdfSaveOptions() { PageSettings = PageSettings.A4NoHeightLimit });

    Console.WriteLine("\nOneNote document saved successfully.\nFile saved at " + dst);
}

Explanation:

• Similar to the previous step, we load the OneNote document into Aspose.Note.
• Define the destination path for the saved PDF file.
• Save the document to PDF using PdfSaveOptions with PageSettings set to A4NoHeightLimit.

Conclusion

In this tutorial, we learned how to save documents to PDF format using Aspose.Note for .NET. We covered two different page layouts: Letter and A4 without height limit. With Aspose.Note, developers can easily manipulate OneNote files programmatically, providing flexibility and efficiency in document management tasks.
