Product Overview | Aspose.PUB for .NET

Welcome to Aspose.PUB for .NET

Aspose.PUB for .NET is a suite of flexible and easy to use .NET class libraries that give you the power to read Microsoft Publisher files (.pub) and convert these to other file formats. It lets you work with PUB files without the need to go into the details of the underlying file format structure. This helps you create complex applications quickly and easily. The API is easy to use and simplifies working with publication files on major platforms. It doesn’t need Microsoft Publisher to be installed on the server for working.

Product Description

Aspose.PUB for .NET is implemented using Managed C# and can be used with any .NET language like C#, VB.NET, J# and so on. It can be used to develop a variety of .NET applications ranging from Windows Desktop to ASP.NET web applications. The API comes with a rich set of featured examples written in C# that developers can use to get started with the API in no time. For now, the API supports reading .pub files and convert them to PDF.

Declaration

All Aspose .NET components require Full Trust permission set. The reason is, Aspose .NET components need to access registry settings, system files other than virtual directory for certain operations like parsing fonts, etc. Moreover, Aspose .NET Components are based on core .NET system classes that also require Full Trust permission set in many cases.

Internet Service Providers hosting multiple applications from different companies mostly enforce Medium Trust security level. In the case of .NET 2.0, such security level applies the following constraints:

• OleDbPermission is not available. This means you cannot use the ADO.NET managed OLE DB data provider to access databases.
• EventLogPermission is not available. This means you cannot access the Windows event log.
• ReflectionPermission is not available. This means you cannot use reflection.
• RegistryPermission is not available. This means you cannot access the registry.
• WebPermission is restricted. This means your application can only communicate with an address or range of addresses that you define in the element.
• FileIOPermission is restricted. This means you can only access files in your application’s virtual directory hierarchy.

Due to the reasons specified above, Aspose .NET components cannot be used on servers granting permission set other than Full Trust.
