File corrupt (needs repair) after presentation load and save

Aspose.Slides Product Family
1

I am using Aspose.Slides 15.4.0 jdk17. Also tried with:

- Aspose.Slides 15.4.0 jdk16
- Aspose.Slides 15.3.0 jdk17
Running this code corrupts the presentation and PowerPoint asks for a repair every time it’s opened:

PATH = “some/path/template.pptx”;
SAVE_PATH = “some/path/new_pres.pptx”;

Presentation pres = new Presentation(PATH);

pres.save(new FileOutputStream(SAVE_PATH), SaveFormat.Pptx);

Hi Mudassir,

Sorry for the late reply.

I have provided the source presentation and the generated one.

My PowerPoint version on Mac:

Microsoft PowerPoint for Mac (Preview)
Version 15.10.0 (150508)

It has also been tested on Windows, but I am unable to provide the version now. If you need it I will get it for you.

Hi Mudassir


We’ve tested this on Mac with Office 2016 (PPT 15.13.1), Windows 7 with Office 2010 (PPT 14.0.7153.5000 32-bit) and Windows 10 with Office 2016 (Office 365 version 15.0.4737.1002 32-bit).

On each version, the source template (master) opens successfully, and the file generated by Aspose Slides fails to open (repair dialog).

The code used is as simple as:

// license aspose library...
Presentation pres = new Presentation("/tmp/source.pptx");
pres.save("/tmp/generated.pptx", SaveFormat.Pptx);

It does NOT matter if this code is executed on our Linux server (JBoss on RHEL) or on our development machine (Mac OS X 10.10.5). We used Aspose Slides 15.6.0.

I can send you the source and generated files by mail if you want? Can't post them as they are confidential...

I have observed the posts shared by you in this thread and have not been able to find any presentation attachment in this thread. Can you please first try using Aspose.Slides for Java 15.6.0 on your end first. If there is still an issue then please provide the source presentation, sample code and generated output with us for further investigation on our end. Please share the requested information so that I may help you further in this regard.

Many Thanks,
