Why to Convert
As a C++ developer, you may need to add email conversion features inside your applications. One of the most common conversions is from EML file format to HTML. This is useful for a variety of reasons, such as displaying emails in a web browser, or for archiving emails in a format that can be easily accessed and read.
How Aspose.Total Helps for EML to TIFF Conversion
Aspose.Total for C++ is a comprehensive suite of APIs that provides developers with the tools they need to create powerful applications. It includes two APIs that are particularly useful for EML to TIFF conversion: Aspose.Email for C++ and Aspose.Words for C++.
Aspose.Email for C++ is an API that enables developers to easily convert EML files to HTML. It provides a range of features, such as the ability to read and write emails in various formats, and the ability to parse and create emails from scratch.
Aspose.Words for C++ is an API that enables developers to export HTML to TIFF. It provides a range of features, such as the ability to create, modify, and convert documents in various formats, and the ability to generate documents from scratch.
By combining the two APIs, developers can easily convert EML files to TIFF. This is useful for a variety of reasons, such as displaying emails in a web browser, or for archiving emails in a format that can be easily accessed and read.
C++ API to Convert EML to TIFF
- 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 TIFF format using Save method and set Tiff 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 Tiff as save format
doc->Save(u"convertedFile.Tiff");
Parse EML File via C++
Not only you can convert your EML to TIFF, 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 TIFF File Format Editing
You can also add document protection features in your app while exporting the document from EML to TIFF. 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.Tiff");
