Convert DICOM Image to PDF & Setting Print Dialog Presets Properties inside .NET Apps

What's New in this Release?

Aspose team is pleased to announce the release of Aspose.Pdf for .NET 17.10.0. Digital Imaging and Communications in Medicine (DICOM) is a standard for storing and transmitting medical images enabling the integration of medical imaging devices such as scanners, servers, workstations, printers etc. Aspose.Pdf for .NET is capable of converting various image formats to PDF and other supported formats. Recently Aspose team has received a requirement to convert DICOM images to PDF format, so in order to cater this scenario, Aspose team is pleased to announce the support of this format. Recently one of the customers shared a requirement to change DuplexMode property to duplex of Print Dialog Presets(In Adobe Acrobat choose File > Properties -> Advanced tab). Whereas in the Print Dialog (Presets section) of PDF document, the default value is set to simplex. Users can set Duplex property of PrinterSettings object while printing through PdfViewer class but the API lacked the feature to set PDF document property. Therefore in order to accomplish this requirement, support is provided in API and following code snippet can be used. In legacy Aspose.Pdf.Generator, we had a VerticalAlign property on row objects and in order to provide similar feature in new Document Object Model of Aspose.Pdf namespace, it has added similar property for Aspose.Pdf.Row instance. Apart from above mentioned improvements, the API is improved to generate better results for PDF to SVG or SVG to PDF conversion and it has also been improved to accept password in foreign language when encrypting or decrypting PDF files. The PDF to PDF/A compliance conversion is improved to cater more scenarios and for other inter file format conversion scenarios, there has been significant efforts towards the stability of PDF to HTML conversion feature. The list of important new and improved features are given below

• Support DICOM image to PDF
• To set Print Dialog Presets properties of a PDF document
• Support Vertical Alignment property for Row instance
• Add image inside PDF - Output is different as compared to old Generator
• PDF to SVG content gets shrinked

Read/Write External Connection of XLSB File & Set Values Format Code of Chart Series using Java

What’s new in this release?

Aspose team is pleased to announce the new release of Aspose.Cells for Java 17.10.0. This release includes many new features and enhancements along with some critical bug fixes that further improve the overall stability of the APIs. Aspose.Cells already supports read and write external connection of xlsx file but now, it also supports this feature for xlsb file. However, the code is same for both types of format. When cell contains text or string but it is larger than the width of the cell, then the string overflows if the next cell in next column is null or empty. When users save an Excel file into HTML, users can control this overflow by specifying the cross type using the HtmlCrossType enumeration. Aspose.Cells provides a mechanism to interrupt or cancel the formula calculation of workbook using the AbstractCalculationMonitor.interrupt() method. This is useful when formula calculation of workbook is taking too much time and users want to cancel its processing. The Documentation article is available which explains how to Interrupt or Cancel the Formula Calculation of Workbook. Developers can set the values format code of chart series using the Series.ValuesFormatCode property. This property is not only useful for the series which are based on the range inside the worksheet but also works well for the series created with array of values. Sheet.SheetId property is found inside the DocumentFormat.OpenXml.Spreadsheet namespace and is part of OpenXml. You can see this property and its value inside workbook.xml. Aspose.Cells provides the equivalent property as Worksheet.TabId.Below are some important new features, enhancement and bug fixes part of this release.

• Cancel long-running calculation of Workbook.calculateFormula method
• Get SheetId field of MS Excel worksheet
• Good HTML needed for the attached HTML
• Position of long-hyphens is not same as Microsoft Excel
