What's New in this Release?

Aspose team is proud to announce the release of a New Android API for Microsoft PowerPoint Documents Processing known as Aspose.Slides for Android.  This new component has been built on top of our award winning product Aspose.Slides for Java, and inherits all the features and capabilities from that product except rendering options at the moment. The component empowers Android developers to work with PowerPoint presentations in their applications without any dependence on Microsoft PowerPoint. For more information about the product capabilities, please visit product description page. Aspose.Slides for Android empowers the developers to create simple or complex presentations. It allows you to add variety of shapes and formatting them. The complete support for working with MSO charts has also been added in this release. It also provides the support for managing OLE frames, manipulating SmartArt shapes, using PowerPoint tables and ActiveX objects.
