Convert OTT to EMAIL using Python
OTT to EMAIL conversion in your Python Applications without installing Microsoft Word® or Outlook.
Why to Convert
Python developers often need to convert OTT (Open Text Template) files to EMAIL format. This is because OTT files are not supported by most email clients, and thus need to be converted to a more compatible format. This conversion process can be automated using the Aspose.Total for Python via .NET API.
How Aspose.Total Helps for OTT to Email Conversion
Aspose.Total for Python via .NET is a full package of various APIs dealing with different formats including Email, Images and Microsoft Word formats. It includes Aspose.Words for Python via .NET and Aspose.Email for Python via .NET APIs, which makes the conversion of OTT to EMAIL format easy using Python. The conversion process is a two-step process. Firstly, the Word file is loaded and rendered into HTML via Aspose.Words for Python via .NET. Secondly, the converted HTML is loaded using Aspose.Email for Python via .NET and saved into EMAIL format. This process is automated and can be done quickly and easily using the Aspose.Total for Python via .NET API.
