System Requirements Leave feedback

This section describes the system requirements for using GroupDocs.Conversion.LowCode package.

• .NET 6.0 or above

GroupDocs.Conversion.LowCode is a cross-platform package that can be used on:

• Windows
• Linux
• macOS

To develop applications using GroupDocs.Conversion.LowCode, you need:

• .NET SDK 6.0 or above for building applications
• .NET Runtime 6.0 or above for running applications

GroupDocs.Conversion.LowCode uses fontconfig and the TrueType fonts installed on the system. Without them, some conversions fail: for example, PPTX to PDF throws MissingDependencyException because libfontconfig and libfreetype are missing, and HTML to PDF or PDF to DOCX report that no fonts were found.

On Ubuntu and Debian, install fontconfig together with a set of fonts. The Liberation fonts are metric-compatible with Arial, Times New Roman, and Courier New, so documents that use those fonts keep their layout:

apt-get update && apt-get install -y fontconfig fonts-liberation

For the most accurate rendering of documents created in Microsoft Office, you can also copy the original TrueType fonts from a Windows machine to /usr/share/fonts/truetype/ and run fc-cache -f.

No other native packages are required. In particular, libgdiplus is not needed.

macOS includes the common TrueType fonts, such as Times New Roman, Arial, and Verdana. If your documents use fonts that are missing, install them, for example with Homebrew:

brew install --cask font-arial font-times-new-roman font-verdana
