C++ API to Export CGM to PCL
Render CGM to PCL within C++ applications without requiring any third party application
Why to Convert CGM to PCL
The PCL (Printer Command Language) file format is a page description language used to control the printing of documents on a wide range of printers and other output devices. It is a popular format for printing documents, as it is supported by a wide range of printers and other output devices. PCL files are also more compact than other file formats, making them ideal for sending over the internet.

The Aspose.PDF for C++ API provides a wide range of features for manipulating PDF documents, including the ability to convert CGM files to DOC. It also supports a wide range of other file formats, including HTML, XPS, and SVG. The API also provides a range of features for manipulating PDF documents, such as adding text, images, and annotations.
The Aspose.Words for C++ API provides a range of features for manipulating Word documents, including the ability to export DOC to PCL. It also supports a wide range of other file formats, including HTML, RTF, and ODT. The API also provides a range of features for manipulating Word documents, such as adding text, images, and tables.
Aspose.Total for C++ makes it easy for C++ developers to convert CGM to PCL in two simple steps. Firstly, they can use the Aspose.PDF for C++ API to convert CGM files to DOC. Secondly, they can use the Aspose.Words for C++ API to export DOC to PCL. This makes it easy for C++ developers to quickly and easily convert CGM to PCL.
C++ API to Render CGM to PCL
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 Pcl
wordDoc->Save(u"output.Pcl");
Change Password of CGM Document via C++
In the process of rendering CGM to PCL, 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 PCL File Editing via C++
You can also restrict PCL 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.Pcl");
