Introduction

Welcome to our step-by-step guide on applying a dark theme to text in Aspose.Note for .NET. Aspose.Note is a powerful .NET API that allows developers to work with Microsoft OneNote files programmatically. In this tutorial, we will explore how to give your OneNote documents a sleek and modern look by applying a dark theme to the text.

Prerequisites

Before we dive into the tutorial, ensure you have the following prerequisites in place:

  • Aspose.Note for .NET: Make sure you have Aspose.Note for .NET installed. If not, you can download it from the Aspose.Note documentation.
  • Development Environment: Set up your preferred .NET development environment, such as Visual Studio.
  • Document Directory: Prepare the directory where your OneNote document is located.

Import Namespaces

In your .NET project, import the necessary namespaces to work with Aspose.Note:

    using System;
    using System.Drawing;
    using System.IO;

Step 1: Load the OneNote Document

Load your OneNote document into Aspose.Note using the following code:

// The path to the documents directory.
string dataDir = "Your Document Directory";
// Load the document into Aspose.Note.
Document doc = new Document(Path.Combine(dataDir, "Aspose.one"));

Step 2: Set Background Color

Set the background color of each page to black:

foreach (var page in doc)
{
    page.BackgroundColor = Color.Black;
}

Step 3: Adjust Text Color

Adjust the font color of the text to white for better visibility:

foreach (var node in doc.GetChildNodes<RichText>())
{
    var c = node.ParagraphStyle.FontColor;
    if (c.IsEmpty || Math.Abs(c.R - Color.Black.R) + Math.Abs(c.G - Color.Black.G) + Math.Abs(c.B - Color.Black.B) <= 30)
    {
        node.ParagraphStyle.FontColor = Color.White;
    }
}

Step 4: Save the Document

Save the modified OneNote document as a PDF:

doc.Save(Path.Combine(dataDir, "AsposeDarkTheme.pdf"));
