C++ API to Export XPS to DOTM
Render XPS to DOTM within C++ applications without requiring any third party application
Why to Convert XPS to DOTM?
XPS (XML Paper Specification) is a document format developed by Microsoft. It is used to store documents in a fixed layout format. XPS documents are similar to PDF documents, but they are not as widely used. DOTM (Office Open XML Macro-Enabled Template) is a file format used by Microsoft Word. It is used to store documents with macros enabled. It is a more secure format than DOCX, as it prevents malicious macros from running. Therefore, it is important to convert XPS documents to DOTM format for security reasons.
How Aspose.Total Helps for XPS to DOTM Conversion?
Aspose.Total for C++ is a suite of file format automation libraries that allows C++ developers to easily convert XPS to DOTM in two simple steps. Firstly, you can use Aspose.PDF for C++ API to convert XPS file format to DOC. Secondly, by using advanced Word Document Processing API Aspose.Words for C++, you can export DOC to DOTM. Aspose.Total for C++ is a comprehensive suite of APIs that provides a wide range of features and capabilities for manipulating various file formats. It is a powerful and reliable solution for converting XPS to DOTM.
C++ API to Render XPS to DOTM
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 XPS file with an instance of Document class reference
auto doc = MakeObject<Document>(u"sourceFile.xps");
// save XPS 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 Dotm
wordDoc->Save(u"output.Dotm");
Change Password of XPS Document via C++
In the process of rendering XPS to DOTM, you can open a password protected XPS and also change its password. In order to change the password of a XPS 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 XPS Document
auto doc = MakeObject<Document>(L"input.xps", L"owner");
// change password of XPS Document
doc->ChangePasswords(L"owner", L"newuser", L"newuser");
// save the document
doc->Save(L"output.Doc");
Restrict DOTM File Editing via C++
You can also restrict DOTM 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.Dotm");
