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 OFT file format to HTML. This is useful for a variety of reasons, such as to make the email content more accessible to a wider range of users, or to make it easier to integrate with other applications.
How Aspose.Total Helps for OFT to DOCX Conversion
Aspose.Total for C++ is a comprehensive suite of APIs that can help you with your email conversion needs. It includes two APIs that are specifically designed to help with OFT to DOCX conversion: Aspose.Email for C++ and Aspose.Words for C++.
Aspose.Email for C++ is an API that allows you to convert OFT file format to HTML. This is the first step in the conversion process, and it ensures that the email content is in a format that can be easily manipulated and integrated with other applications.
Once the OFT file has been converted to HTML, Aspose.Words for C++ can be used to export the HTML to DOCX. This API provides a range of features that make it easy to convert HTML to DOCX, including support for a variety of document formats, advanced formatting options, and the ability to manipulate and customize the output.
By using Aspose.Total for C++, you can easily and quickly convert OFT file format to DOCX. This comprehensive suite of APIs makes it easy to add email conversion features to your applications, and ensures that the output is of the highest quality.
C++ API to Convert OFT to DOCX
- Open OFT file using MailMessage class reference
- Convert OFT to HTML by using Save member function
- Load HTML by using Document class
- Save the document to DOCX format using Save method and set Docx 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 OFT file to be converted
System::SharedPtr<MailMessage> msg = MailMessage::Load(u"sourceFile.oft");
// save OFT 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 Docx as save format
doc->Save(u"convertedFile.Docx");
Parse OFT File via C++
Not only you can convert your OFT to DOCX, but you can read, manipulate, and parse OFT 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.oft");
// 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 DOCX File Format Editing
You can also add document protection features in your app while exporting the document from OFT to DOCX. 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.Docx");
