Exception while using potx file...

Sun Jun 02, 2019 7:06 am

It is ok to generate presentation file using existing pot file,
BUT, when using potx file, the same code will produce EXCEPTION!!

As the following code depicted:
(Note: the potx file is produced by just merely saved-as from the pot file)

ISlide slide;
Presentation ppt=new Presentation();
Presentation masterppt=new Presentation();

// the following can produce result successfully.
masterppt.LoadFromFile("IT.pot",FileFormat.Auto);
slide=masterppt.Slides[0];
ppt.Slides.Insert(0,slide);
ppt.SaveToFile("result-from-POT.pptx",FileFormat.Auto);

// the following will Exception!! ("Object reference not set....")
masterppt.LoadFromFile("IT.potx",FileFormat.Auto);
slide=masterppt.Slides[0];
ppt.Slides.Insert(0,slide);
ppt.SaveToFile("result-from-POTX.pptx",FileFormat.Auto);

I had noticed that there is new version of Spire Office available (v4.6).
And after download it & extract, the resulting Spire Presentation is also new version (v4.5.10.18040).
But, after testing, the aforementioned exception (potx issue) is still exist.

Due to project time is due, may I ask that is it possible that you can offer me a quick fix just for resolving that exception?
Thanks in advance.

Hi,

Thanks for your response.
Our latest Spire.Office does not include the fix for this issue as the new version of Spire.Presentation has not completed all the tests.
We are on a holiday now until we return to the office on June 10th. When we get back to the office, we will do our best to provide the new version with you soon.
Sorry for all the inconvenience caused by us. Thanks for your understanding and support.
