C++ API to Export SVG to PCL
Render SVG to PCL within C++ applications without requiring any third party application
Why to Convert SVG to PCL
The Portable Document Format (PDF) is a widely used file format for documents. It is used to store and share documents, and is supported by most operating systems. However, PDF files are not always suitable for printing. The Printer Command Language (PCL) is a page description language used by printers to interpret and print documents. PCL is a more efficient format for printing, as it is designed specifically for this purpose. Therefore, it is often necessary to convert PDF files to PCL in order to print them.
How Aspose.Total Helps for SVG to PCL Conversion
Aspose.Total for C++ is a comprehensive suite of file format automation libraries that enables C++ developers to quickly and easily convert SVG to PCL. The suite includes Aspose.PDF for C++ and Aspose.Words for C++. Aspose.PDF for C++ is a powerful PDF processing API that enables developers to convert SVG files to DOC. Aspose.Words for C++ is an advanced Word document processing API that enables developers to export DOC files to PCL. With Aspose.Total for C++, developers can easily convert SVG to PCL in just two simple steps.
C++ API to Render SVG to PCL
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 SVG file with an instance of Document class reference
auto doc = MakeObject<Document>(u"sourceFile.svg");
// save SVG 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 Pcl
wordDoc->Save(u"output.Pcl");
Change Password of SVG Document via C++
In the process of rendering SVG to PCL, you can open a password protected SVG and also change its password. In order to change the password of a SVG 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 SVG Document
auto doc = MakeObject<Document>(L"input.svg", L"owner");
// change password of SVG Document
doc->ChangePasswords(L"owner", L"newuser", L"newuser");
// save the document
doc->Save(L"output.Doc");
Restrict PCL File Editing via C++
You can also restrict PCL 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.Pcl");
