Why to Convert XPS to DOTX?
XPS (XML Paper Specification) is a document format developed by Microsoft which is used to store documents in a fixed layout. It is similar to PDF format but is not as popular as PDF. DOTX is a template file format used by Microsoft Word. It is used to store a set of documents with predefined styles, formatting, and layouts. Converting XPS to DOTX allows users to create documents with predefined styles, formatting, and layouts.
How Aspose.Total Helps for XPS to DOTX Conversion?
Aspose.Total for C++ is a suite of file format automation libraries that allows C++ developers to easily convert XPS to DOTX 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 DOTX. Aspose.Total for C++ is a comprehensive suite of APIs that provides a wide range of features for manipulating and converting various file formats. It is a reliable and cost-effective solution for developers who need to convert XPS to DOTX.
C++ API to Render XPS to DOTX
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 Dotx
wordDoc->Save(u"output.Dotx");
Change Password of XPS Document via C++
In the process of rendering XPS to DOTX, 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 DOTX File Editing via C++
You can also restrict DOTX 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.Dotx");
