Why to Convert XPS to RTF
XPS (XML Paper Specification) is a document format developed by Microsoft that is used to store documents in a fixed layout. It is similar to PDF, but it is not as widely used as PDF. RTF (Rich Text Format) is a document format developed by Microsoft that is used to store documents in a format that is compatible with most word processing programs. It is a more widely used format than XPS, and it is often used for exchanging documents between different programs. Therefore, it is often necessary to convert XPS documents to RTF in order to make them more widely accessible.
How Aspose.Total Helps for XPS to RTF Conversion
Aspose.Total for C++ is a comprehensive suite of file format automation libraries that allows C++ developers to easily convert XPS to RTF in two simple steps. Firstly, the Aspose.PDF for C++ API can be used to convert XPS file format to DOC. Secondly, the advanced Word Document Processing API, Aspose.Words for C++, can be used to export DOC to RTF. Aspose.Total for C++ is a powerful and reliable solution for XPS to RTF conversion, and it is easy to use and highly customizable. It also offers a wide range of features and options that make it an ideal choice for developers who need to convert XPS documents to RTF.
C++ API to Render XPS to RTF
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 Rtf
wordDoc->Save(u"output.Rtf");
Change Password of XPS Document via C++
In the process of rendering XPS to RTF, 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 RTF File Editing via C++
You can also restrict RTF 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.Rtf");
