Aspose.Page for .NET EPS to PDF converter allows to convert Encapsulated PostScript (EPS) file to PDF document with using of any language supported by .Net platform: C#, VB, J#.
Steps: EPS to PDF Converter API Code in C#
It is necessary to do several steps in order to perform EPS to PDF conversion:
- Initialize an input stream for input EPS file.
- Initialize an output stream for output PDF document.
- Create an instance of PsDocument from created earlier input stream.
- Use PdfSaveOptions to specify AdditionalFontsFolder and SuppressError boolean value.
- Create an instance of PdfDevice from created earlier output stream.
- Save PostScript document as PDF with PDF save options.
- If SuppressErrors value was true, as it is by default, It is possible to see what errors were thrown during conversion of EPS to PDF and saved in Exceptions list.
Following C# code snippet shows how to convert EPS to PDF document in C#:

Let’s consider
PdfSaveOptions. Using this class we can assign different conversion parameters while converting EPS to PDF.
- AdditionalFontsFolder specifies locations where to find fonts. System fonts folders are always included by default.
- SuppressError controls behaviour of EPS to PDF converter when non-critical errors are appeared. If value is true than it is possible to view a list of such errors after conversion in Exceptions field. Default value is true.
- Debug allows outputting debug information to console. Default value is false.
