Why to Convert PCL to ODT?
The Portable Document Format (PDF) is a widely used file format for documents, but it is not suitable for editing. The OpenDocument Text (ODT) format is an open standard for word processing documents, and is the native format of many popular word processors. It is a much better choice for editing documents, as it is easier to work with and more compatible with other programs. Therefore, it is often necessary to convert PCL files to ODT format.
How Aspose.Total Helps for PCL to ODT Conversion?
Aspose.Total for C++ is a comprehensive suite of file format automation libraries that enables C++ developers to easily convert PCL to ODT in two simple steps. Firstly, you can use Aspose.PDF for C++ API to convert PCL file format to DOC. Secondly, by using advanced Word Document Processing API Aspose.Words for C++, you can export DOC to ODT. Aspose.Total for C++ is a powerful and reliable solution for converting PCL to ODT, and it is easy to use and highly efficient. It is also highly secure, as it does not require any external software or services. Aspose.Total for C++ is the perfect choice for developers who need to quickly and easily convert PCL to ODT.
C++ API to Render PCL to ODT
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 PCL file with an instance of Document class reference
auto doc = MakeObject<Document>(u"sourceFile.pcl");
// save PCL 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 Odt
wordDoc->Save(u"output.Odt");
Change Password of PCL Document via C++
In the process of rendering PCL to ODT, you can open a password protected PCL and also change its password. In order to change the password of a PCL 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 PCL Document
auto doc = MakeObject<Document>(L"input.pcl", L"owner");
// change password of PCL Document
doc->ChangePasswords(L"owner", L"newuser", L"newuser");
// save the document
doc->Save(L"output.Doc");
Restrict ODT File Editing via C++
You can also restrict ODT 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.Odt");
