Why to Convert
As a C++ developer, you may need to add email conversion features inside your applications. For example, you may need to convert EML file format to HTML. This is because HTML is a widely used format for displaying documents on the web. It is also a popular format for creating documents that can be viewed on any device.
How Aspose.Total Helps for EML to PS Conversion
Aspose.Total for C++ is a comprehensive suite of APIs that can help you with your email conversion needs. It includes two APIs, Aspose.Email for C++ and Aspose.Words for C++. With Aspose.Email for C++, you can easily convert EML file format to HTML. After that, you can use Aspose.Words for C++ to export HTML to PS. This way, you can easily convert EML to PS with the help of Aspose.Total for C++.
C++ API to Convert EML to PS
- Open EML file using MailMessage class reference
- Convert EML to HTML by using Save member function
- Load HTML by using Document class
- Save the document to PS format using Save method and set Ps 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 EML file to be converted
System::SharedPtr<MailMessage> msg = MailMessage::Load(u"sourceFile.eml");
// save EML 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 Ps as save format
doc->Save(u"convertedFile.Ps");
Parse EML File via C++
Not only you can convert your EML to PS, but you can read, manipulate, and parse EML 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.eml");
// 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 PS File Format Editing
You can also add document protection features in your app while exporting the document from EML to PS. 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.Ps");
