C++ API to Export EMAIL to DOC
Transform EMAIL to DOC within C++ application without requiring Microsoft Word or Outlook
Why to Convert
As a C++ developer, you may need to add email conversion features inside your applications. Email conversion is a process of transforming emails from one format to another. It is useful for archiving emails, migrating emails from one platform to another, or simply for viewing emails in a different format.
How Aspose.Total Helps for Email to Doc Conversion
Aspose.Total for C++ is a suite of APIs that enables developers to work with a variety of file formats, including emails. It includes two APIs, Aspose.Email for C++ and Aspose.Words for C++, which can be used to convert emails to HTML and then export HTML to DOC.
Aspose.Email for C++ is a powerful API that enables developers to convert emails from EMAIL file format to HTML. It supports a wide range of email formats, including MSG, EML, EMLX, MHTML, and Outlook PST. It also provides features such as email conversion, email manipulation, and email extraction.
Aspose.Words for C++ is a powerful API that enables developers to export HTML to DOC. It supports a wide range of document formats, including DOC, DOCX, RTF, HTML, and PDF. It also provides features such as document conversion, document manipulation, and document extraction.
By using Aspose.Total for C++, developers can easily convert emails from EMAIL file format to HTML and then export HTML to DOC. This makes it easy to add email conversion features to C++ applications.
C++ API to Convert EMAIL to DOC
- Open EMAIL file using MailMessage class reference
- Convert EMAIL to HTML by using Save member function
- Load HTML by using Document class
- Save the document to DOC format using Save method and set Doc as SaveFormat
Get Started with C++ File Format 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 the EMAIL file to be converted
System::SharedPtr<MailMessage> msg = MailMessage::Load(u"sourceFile.msg");
// save EMAIL as a HTML
msg->Save(u"HtmlOutput.html", SaveOptions::get_DefaultHtml());
// load HTML with an instance of Document
System::SharedPtr<Document> doc = System::MakeObject<Document>(u"HtmlOutput.html");
// call save method while passing Doc as save format
doc->Save(u"convertedFile.Doc");
Parse EMAIL File via C++
Not only you can convert your EMAIL to DOC, but you can read, manipulate, and parse EMAIL document. You can get subject, address, body, recipients information of the email by using MapiMessage class of Aspose.Email for C++ API. For example, you can check for a specific sender email for the conversion by using get_SenderEmailAddress() property.
// create an instance of MapiMessage from file
System::SharedPtr<MapiMessage> msg = MapiMessage::FromFile(dataDir + L"message.msg");
// get subject
System::Console::WriteLine(System::String(L"Subject:") + msg->get_Subject());
// get from address
System::Console::WriteLine(System::String(L"From:") + msg->get_SenderEmailAddress());
// get body
System::Console::WriteLine(System::String(L"Body") + msg->get_Body());
// get recipients information
System::Console::WriteLine(System::String(L"Recipient: ") + msg->get_Recipients());
C++ API to Restrict DOC File Format Editing
You can also add document protection features in your app while exporting the document from EMAIL to DOC. Adding protection to your document is a simple process, as all you need to do is apply the protection method to your document. You can set protection type to ReadOnly to restrict the user to edit the document.
// create a new document and protect it with a password.
auto doc = System::MakeObject<Document>();
// apply Document Protection.
doc->Protect(ProtectionType::ReadOnly, u"password");
// save the document.
doc->Save(u"DocumentProtection.PasswordProtection.Doc");
