Introduction

In this tutorial, we’ll explore how to save documents to PDF format using Aspose.Note for .NET. Aspose.Note is a powerful library that enables developers to work with Microsoft OneNote files programmatically. We’ll cover the prerequisites, import namespaces, and provide step-by-step guides for saving documents to PDF in various page layouts.

Prerequisites

1. Visual Studio: Ensure it’s installed.
2. Aspose.Note for .NET: Download and install the library.
3. C# Knowledge: Basic understanding of the language is required.

Importing Necessary Namespaces

Before proceeding, import the following namespaces in your code:

using System;
using System.IO;
using Aspose.Note.Saving;

Step 1: Save to PDF with Letter Page Settings

public static void SaveToPdfUsingLetterPageSettings()
{
    string dataDir = "Your Document Directory"; // Update this path
    Document oneFile = new Document(dataDir + "OneNote.one");
    var dst = Path.Combine(dataDir, "SaveToPdfUsingLetterPageSettings.pdf");
    
    oneFile.Save(dst, new PdfSaveOptions() { PageSettings = PageSettings.Letter });
    Console.WriteLine("\nOneNote document saved successfully.\nFile saved at " + dst);
}

Loads the OneNote document and saves it as a PDF using letter-sized page settings.

Step 2: Save to PDF with A4 Page Settings (No Height Limit)

public static void SaveToPdfUsingA4PageSettingsWithoutHeightLimit()
{
    string dataDir = "Your Document Directory"; // Update this path
    Document oneFile = new Document(dataDir + "OneNote.one");
    var dst = Path.Combine(dataDir, "SaveToPdfUsingA4PageSettingsWithoutHeightLimit.pdf");
    
    oneFile.Save(dst, new PdfSaveOptions() { PageSettings = PageSettings.A4NoHeightLimit });
    Console.WriteLine("\nOneNote document saved successfully.\nFile saved at " + dst);
}

Similar to Step 1 but uses A4 page settings without height limitations.
