### Sample usage

The example code below converts a PowerPoint document to PDF format using aspose_slides_cloud library:
```perl
	use File::Slurp;

	use AsposeSlidesCloud::Configuration;
	use AsposeSlidesCloud::SlidesApi;

	my $config = AsposeSlidesCloud::Configuration->new();
	$config->{app_sid} = "MyClientId";
	$config->{app_key} = "MyClientSecret";
	my $api = AsposeSlidesCloud::SlidesApi->new(config => $config);
	my $file = read_file("MyPresentation.pptx", { binmode => ':raw' });
	my %params = ('format' => 'pdf', 'document' => $file);
	my $result = $api->convert(%params);
	my $pdf = "MyPresentation.pdf";
	open my $fh, '>>', $pdf;
	binmode $fh;
	print $fh $result;
