Why to Convert MHTML to WORDML
MHTML (MIME HTML) is a web page archive format that is used to save web pages for offline viewing. It is a combination of HTML code and resources such as images, audio, and video. It is used to store web pages in a single file and is supported by most web browsers. WORDML (WordprocessingML) is an XML-based file format used by Microsoft Word to store documents. It is an open standard that is used to store documents in a structured format. Converting MHTML to WORDML allows users to access the content of the web page in a structured format and make changes to the content.
How Aspose.Total helps for MHTML to WORDML Conversion
Aspose.Total for C++ is a suite of file format automation libraries that enables C++ developers to easily convert MHTML to WORDML in two simple steps. Firstly, you can use Aspose.PDF for C++ API to convert MHTML file format to DOC. Secondly, by using advanced Word Document Processing API Aspose.Words for C++, you can export DOC to WORDML. Aspose.Total for C++ is a comprehensive suite of APIs that provides a wide range of features to manipulate documents of different file formats. It is a reliable and cost-effective solution for developers to automate their document processing tasks.
C++ API to Render MHTML to WORDML
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 MHTML file with an instance of Document class reference
auto doc = MakeObject<Document>(u"sourceFile.mhtml");
// save MHTML 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 WordML
wordDoc->Save(u"output.WordML");
Change Password of MHTML Document via C++
In the process of rendering MHTML to WORDML, you can open a password protected MHTML and also change its password. In order to change the password of a MHTML 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 MHTML Document
auto doc = MakeObject<Document>(L"input.mhtml", L"owner");
// change password of MHTML Document
doc->ChangePasswords(L"owner", L"newuser", L"newuser");
// save the document
doc->Save(L"output.Doc");
Restrict WORDML File Editing via C++
You can also restrict WORDML 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.WordML");

What is MHTML File Format?
MHTML, short for MIME HTML, is a file format that combines HTML code and its associated resources into a single file. It stands for Multipurpose Internet Mail Extension HTML. MHTML files are commonly used for saving web pages, including all their content such as images, CSS stylesheets, and JavaScript, into a single file.
MHTML files are often created by web browsers when users save web pages for offline viewing or archiving purposes. By bundling all the necessary resources into one file, MHTML ensures that the web page can be viewed and rendered accurately, even without an internet connection or access to the original server.
The MHTML format follows the MIME standard, which is used for encoding and exchanging various types of data over the internet. It uses multipart MIME encoding to package the HTML code and associated resources into a single file. The file typically has a .mht or .mhtml file extension.
MHTML files can be opened and viewed by web browsers that support the format, such as Internet Explorer, Microsoft Edge, and Opera. Some text editors and specialized software also provide the ability to open and edit MHTML files.
The MHTML format offers advantages in terms of portability and convenience, as it allows users to save and share web pages as a single file, ensuring the preservation of the page’s layout, formatting, and linked resources. However, it’s worth noting that MHTML is not as widely used as other web formats like HTML or PDF, and compatibility may vary across different software and platforms.
What is WORDML File Format?
Microsoft Word 2003 introduced a proprietary document format known as WordprocessingML. This format, based on XML, utilizes a custom XML schema to store various elements of a Word document, encompassing text, formatting, images, and other content. WordprocessingML aims to provide a comprehensive representation of all document information while maintaining both human-readable and machine-readable qualities.
Being human-readable means that WordprocessingML documents can be easily accessed and edited using a standard text editor. This accessibility allows users to directly manipulate the underlying XML structure if needed. Additionally, WordprocessingML is designed to facilitate automated processing and conversion by computer systems, enabling seamless transformation into other formats or integration with different software applications.
WordprocessingML is an open standard, meaning that its specifications are publicly available for reference and implementation by developers. This openness has fostered the development of numerous software programs, including open-source solutions like OpenOffice.org and LibreOffice, which can read and write WordprocessingML documents. The availability of such tools expands the accessibility and interoperability of WordprocessingML files beyond the Microsoft Word ecosystem.
Microsoft Word, being one of the most widely used word processing programs worldwide, has contributed to the popularity of WordprocessingML as an XML-based word processing format. Its broad acceptance has established WordprocessingML as a prevalent standard for sharing and exchanging richly formatted documents.
