Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the field of document processing technology, and in particular to a method, apparatus, electronic device, and storage medium for browsing PPT files. Background Technology

[0002] Currently, PowerPoint (PPT) documents are primarily used for information presentation and dissemination. Presenters use either live PPT explanations or share PPT documents to communicate information. When the audience (document viewer, recipient) wants to view the PPT content on their own device, the presenter needs to send the PPT file (or a PDF file converted from the PPT) to the audience, who then receives, stores, and plays / views it on their local device. However, this model has drawbacks: file transfer is limited by device, and various compatibility issues (device, software, font layout, file size, etc.) can cause playback failures or errors.

[0003] Currently, PPTs can be converted to PDF files before transmission. This can prevent theft, tampering, and reduce file size. However, PPTs converted to PDF files will lose multimedia information (video, audio, etc.), and embedded website links in the PPT cannot be opened directly in the PDF.

[0004] There is currently no good solution for how to use multimedia information and links in PowerPoint without being limited by device specifications. Summary of the Invention

[0047] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of the embodiments of this application clearer, the technical solutions of the embodiments of this application will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of this application, not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of this application, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of this application.

[0048] In the following description, the use of suffixes such as "module," "part," or "unit" to denote elements is solely for the purpose of illustration and has no specific meaning in itself. Therefore, "module" and "part" may be used interchangeably.

[0049] To address the problems mentioned in the background art, according to one aspect of the embodiments of this application, an embodiment of a method for browsing PPT files is provided.

[0050] Optionally, in the embodiments of this application, the above-described method for browsing PPT files can be applied to, for example... Figure 1 The hardware environment shown consists of terminal 101 and server 103. Figure 1 As shown, server 103 is connected to terminal 101 via a network and can be used to provide services to the terminal or clients installed on the terminal. Database 105 can be set up on the server or independently of the server to provide data storage services for server 103. The network mentioned above includes, but is not limited to, wide area network, metropolitan area network or local area network. Terminal 101 includes, but is not limited to, PC, mobile phone, tablet computer, etc.

[0051] One method for browsing a PPT file in this application embodiment can be executed by server 103, which is used to use the multimedia information and links in the PPT normally without being limited by the device.

[0052] The following will describe in detail a method for browsing PPT files provided in this application embodiment, with reference to specific implementation methods. Figure 2 As shown, the specific steps are as follows:

[0053] Step 201: Read the target information from the PowerPoint file sent by the sending terminal.

[0054] The target information includes multimedia information or link information.

[0055] The sending terminal sends a PowerPoint file to the server. The XML specification of the PowerPoint file defines the information characteristics of multimedia and link information. The server identifies the multimedia and link information based on these characteristics, then reads and saves the multimedia and link information to its database. The original PowerPoint file retains this target information. The multimedia information includes audio and video, among other things.

[0056] Step 202: Convert each page in the PPT file into an image.

[0057] The server uses a method for converting PPT files to images to convert each page of the PPT file into an image in sequence.

[0058] Step 203: Generate an initial webpage file based on the image.

[0059] The multimedia information in the initial webpage file has a static visual effect, and the links cannot be clicked to jump to the next page.

[0060] The server displays the images sequentially according to the original page arrangement in the PPT file to obtain an initial webpage file. At this time, the content of the initial webpage file is displayed in the form of images, so the animation effects of multimedia information are lost, presenting a static visual effect, and the links cannot jump to the relevant webpages after being clicked.

[0061] Step 204: Overwrite the original position of the read target information in the initial webpage file to obtain the target webpage file.

[0062] The server reads the target information and overwrites it in its original position in the initial webpage file to obtain the target webpage file. In this way, the target webpage file is actually divided into a static underlying page and target information, but they are treated as the same webpage resource.

[0063] Step 205: Send the network address generated based on the target webpage file to the receiving terminal, so that the receiving terminal loads the network address in the browser to display the PPT file, multimedia files, and link jumps.

[0064] The server generates a network address based on the server identifier and the identifier parameters of the target webpage file, and then sends the network address to the receiving terminal. Upon receiving the network address, the receiving terminal directly loads it into its browser to display the PowerPoint file. Because the static underlying page and the target information in the target webpage file are not a unified whole, and the target information is not in image format, the multimedia information can play normally, and links can redirect to the relevant webpage when clicked.

[0065] In this application, the target information is first read out, and an initial webpage file is generated based on the image-based page. This essentially divides the PPT file into a static underlying page and the target information, both of which are treated as webpage resources. Then, multimedia information and link information are overlaid in the original location of the PPT file to construct a complete and native target webpage file. By generating the network address of the target webpage file, users can directly open the PPT file in a browser without using local PPT software, thus avoiding compatibility issues and allowing for normal playback of multimedia files and link navigation.

[0066] As an optional implementation, when the terminal reads the target information in the PPT file sent by the sending terminal, it also reads the target position of the target information in the PPT file, and then determines the correspondence between each target information and the target position. After obtaining the initial web page file, the service overwrites the target information to the target position in the initial web page file according to the correspondence, thus realizing that the target information is overwritten to the original position in the PPT file.

[0067] The process of reading the target location of the target information in the PPT file includes: the server first determining the target page in the PPT file where the target information is located, i.e., which page the target information is on, and then determining the target size of the target information on the target page, i.e., determining the width and height occupied by the target information on the target page. The target size can be represented in coordinate form. The target page and the target size are used as the target location.

[0068] When communicating between a terminal and a cloud server (e.g., transmitting target information or network addresses), the encryption mechanism between the two parties is as follows: A (one of the terminal and the cloud server) XORs the following n characters from its own identifier (which can be a device identifier or account; if this information is not binary encoded, it is converted to binary encoding): if the i-th bit of its own identifier is 0, the first n bits of its own identifier are taken; if the i-th bit of its own identifier is 1, the last n bits of its own identifier are taken, where i is the integer part of the number of bits of the identifier divided by 2) with a preset string (stored by both the terminal and the cloud server, initially sent to the terminal by the cloud server, with a length of n, which the cloud server will periodically change). The result is converted to a decimal number j to determine the current timestamp. If the last digit of the timestamp is odd, then the encryption scheme set (which contains 2^n characters) is used. n-1 From the set of encryption schemes, the j-th encryption scheme is selected in sequence. If the last digit of the timestamp is not odd, the j-th encryption scheme in reverse order is selected from the set of encryption schemes. The target data is encrypted using the selected encryption scheme to obtain encrypted data. Then, the encrypted data, its own identifier, and the timestamp are used to form a data packet, which is sent to B (the other of the terminal and cloud server). After receiving the data packet, B reads the timestamp and its own identifier and processes it in reverse order.
