We support a variety of output file formats, including PDF, DOC, DOCX, ODT, RTF, HTML, Markdown, Word, PNG, JPG, TIFF, WPS, TXT and many more. Install Aspose.Words for C++ Add a library reference (import the library) to your C++ project Create a new Word document Call the Save() method, passing the file name Get the result as a separate file

Does your C++ library support making Word programmatically?

Our C++ library allows developers to programmatically make Word from scratch

How to use API to make Word?

Just use a code example in C++.

Make WORD Using C++

Make Word in C++ programmatically

With our C++ library developers can easily make Word from scratch. To do this, C++ developers need to perform just a few steps:

Add file name
Start creating a Word document using C++
Save the output Word file

It is worth noting that a blank document is technically supposed to contain one paragraph, so when you programmatically create a Word document, you will get exactly that basic document structure.

Note that you can instantly add content to a newly created Word file. Thus, you will get not just an empty document, but a document containing the necessary content. For more information on how to edit a document, see the Editing page.
