Why to Convert CGM to DOCM
The CGM (Computer Graphics Metafile) file format is a vector graphics format used for storing and exchanging graphics data. It is widely used in engineering, technical and scientific applications. However, CGM files are not supported by Microsoft Word, which is the most popular word processing application. Therefore, it is necessary to convert CGM to DOCM (Microsoft Office Open XML) format in order to open and edit the file in Word.
How Aspose.Total Helps for CGM to DOCM Conversion
Aspose.Total for C++ is a suite of file format automation libraries that enables C++ developers to convert CGM to DOCM in two simple steps. Firstly, you can use Aspose.PDF for C++ API to convert CGM file format to DOC. This API provides a wide range of features to manipulate PDF documents, including the ability to convert PDF to other file formats. Secondly, by using advanced Word Document Processing API Aspose.Words for C++, you can export DOC to DOCM. This API provides a comprehensive set of features to create, edit, and convert Word documents.
In addition, Aspose.Total for C++ also provides other file format automation libraries such as Aspose.Cells for C++, Aspose.Slides for C++, Aspose.Email for C++, and Aspose.BarCode for C++. These libraries enable developers to manipulate various file formats, such as Excel, PowerPoint, Outlook, and Barcode, with ease.
Overall, Aspose.Total for C++ is an ideal solution for C++ developers who need to convert CGM to DOCM. It provides a comprehensive set of features to manipulate various file formats, including the ability to convert CGM to DOCM in two simple steps.
C++ API to Render CGM to DOCM
Get Started with C++ File Automation APIs
Install from command line as nuget install Aspose.Total.Cpp or via Package Manager Console of Visual Studio with Install-Package Aspose.Total.Cpp.
Alternatively, get the offline MSI installer or DLLs in a ZIP file from downloads .
// load CGM file with an instance of Document class reference
auto doc = MakeObject<Document>(u"sourceFile.cgm");
// save CGM as a DOC
doc->Save(u"DocOutput.doc", SaveFormat::Doc);
// load DOC with an instance of Document
System::SharedPtr<Document> wordDoc = System::MakeObject<Document>(u"DocOutput.doc");
// save document as Docm
wordDoc->Save(u"output.Docm");
Change Password of CGM Document via C++
In the process of rendering CGM to DOCM, you can open a password protected CGM and also change its password. In order to change the password of a CGM file, you must know the owner password of that document. You can load password protected PDF document with Aspose.PDF for C++ by specifying its owner password and use ChangePasswords method to change the password.
// load an existing CGM Document
auto doc = MakeObject<Document>(L"input.cgm", L"owner");
// change password of CGM Document
doc->ChangePasswords(L"owner", L"newuser", L"newuser");
// save the document
doc->Save(L"output.Doc");
Restrict DOCM File Editing via C++
You can also restrict DOCM file editing using using Aspose.Words for C++ API. Sometimes you may need to limit the ability to edit a document and only allow certain actions with it. API enables you to control the way you restrict the content using the ProtectionType enumeration parameter. The following code example demonstrates how to restrict editing in a document so only editing in form fields is possible.
// load Doc with an instance of Document
auto doc = System::MakeObject<Document>("input.doc");
// document protection only works when document protection is turned and only editing in form fields is allowed.
doc->Protect(ProtectionType::AllowOnlyFormFields, u"password");
// save the protected document.
doc->Save(u"Protected.Docm");
