Aspose.Page for .NET PS Merger allows to merge PostScript (PS) files to PDF document with using of any language supported by .NET platform: C#, VB, J#.
It is necessary to do several steps in order to perform PS merge:

  1. Create an instance of PsDocument from the first PostScript file.
  2. Create an array of PS files that will be merged with the first one.
  3. Use PdfSaveOptions to specify AdditionalFontsFolder and SuppressError boolean value.
  4. Merge PS files with the created document and save it as PDF with PDF save options.
  5. If SuppressErrors value was true, as it is by default, It is possible to see what errors were thrown during merging of PostScript files to PDF document and saved in Exceptions list.


Following code snippet shows how to merge PS files to PDF document in C#:

 1/ For complete examples and data files, please go to https://github.com/aspose-page/Aspose.Page-for-.NET
 2// The path to the documents directory.
 3string dataDir = RunExamples.GetDataDir_WorkingWithDocumentMerging();
 4// Initialize PS document with the first PostScript file
 5PsDocument document = new PsDocument(dataDir + "input1.ps");
 6
 7// Create an array of PostScript files that will be merged with the first one
 8string[] filesForMerge = new string[] { dataDir + "input2.ps", dataDir + "input3.ps" };
 9
10// If you want to convert Postscript file despite of minor errors set this flag
11bool suppressErrors = true;
12
13//Initialize options object with necessary parameters.
14PdfSaveOptions options = new PdfSaveOptions(suppressErrors);
15// If you want to add special folder where fonts are stored. Default fonts folder in OS is always included.
16options.AdditionalFontsFolders = new string[] { @"{FONT_FOLDER}" };

19// But if you need to specify the page size following line
20//PdfSaveOptions options = new PdfSaveOptions(suppressErrors, new Aspose.Page.Drawing.Size(595, 842));
