Hi,

I'm using the Aspose for PPT to PDF conversion. I'm using the following code for converting the ppt to pdf . It is working fine at Windows environment. When i test it  in Solaris environment , getting the Null pointer Exception.

Presentation pptPresentation = new Presentation(pptFilePath);
pptPresentation.save(pdfFilePath, com.aspose.slides.export.SaveFormat.PDF);

Regards,

Dheeraj

 

Dear Dheeraj,

I feel sorry to inform you that I am unable to understand the issue completely. Can you please share further information about which JDK version you are using along with Aspose.Slides for Java version that you are using. Please also share that whether you are experiencing problem with every presentation in Solaris environment or with only a particular presentation. Please also share the problematic presentation for further investigation.

Thanks and Regards,

Dear Van,

Yes, you are right in making your point that same code snippet is working in Windows environment but failing to execute in Solaris environment. The issue might be with Aspose.Slides for Java and our development team will investigate and resolve.

Hi,

I have also opened a similiar issue.
It seems that conversion from ppt to PDF does not work in Linux.

This is critical as we are reaching a purchase decision whether to replace openoffice with Aspose.

When are we going to get an answer about compatibility in Linux ?

thanks
