The API lets you convert a whole presentation to PDF with a single API call. You can also convert a specific slide to PDF document. First of all, we need to upload the source presentation to Cloud Storage. Aspose Cloud provides its own storage capacity. It also supports several 3rd party storages including Amazon S3, Azure, Dropbox, etc. You can configure any 3rd party cloud storage with Aspose Cloud. Following is a cURL example to upload a presentation from local storage to Cloud storage.
After uploading the file, you can convert a specific slide to a PDF document by specifying the slide number. For instance, to render the second slide, specify the number as in below code snippet:
