using GroupDocs.Conversion.FileTypes;

// Create options object
FinanceConvertOptions options = new FinanceConvertOptions
{
    Format = FinanceFileType.Xbrl,

Converting Between Finance Formats

You can convert between XBRL and iXBRL formats. This allows you to transform between human-readable inline XBRL and standard XBRL format.

Convert XBRL to iXBRL

using GroupDocs.Conversion;
using GroupDocs.Conversion.Options.Convert;
using GroupDocs.Conversion.FileTypes;

// Load the source XBRL file
using (Converter converter = new Converter("financial-report.xbrl"))
{
    // Configure iXBRL convert options
    FinanceConvertOptions options = new FinanceConvertOptions
    {
        Format = FinanceFileType.IXbrl
    };

    // Convert and save
    converter.Convert("financial-report.ixbrl", options);
}

Convert iXBRL to XBRL

using GroupDocs.Conversion;
using GroupDocs.Conversion.Options.Convert;
using GroupDocs.Conversion.FileTypes;

// Load the source iXBRL file
using (Converter converter = new Converter("inline-report.ixbrl"))
{
    // Configure XBRL convert options
    FinanceConvertOptions options = new FinanceConvertOptions
    {
        Format = FinanceFileType.Xbrl
    };

    // Convert and save
    converter.Convert("inline-report.xbrl", options);
}

Format Selection

You can specify different financial formats using the Format property:

XBRL Format

XBRL (eXtensible Business Reporting Language) is the international standard for digital business reporting:

using GroupDocs.Conversion.Options.Convert;
using GroupDocs.Conversion.FileTypes;

FinanceConvertOptions xbrlOptions = new FinanceConvertOptions
{
    Format = FinanceFileType.Xbrl
};

iXBRL Format

iXBRL (Inline XBRL) combines human-readable HTML with machine-readable XBRL data:

FinanceConvertOptions ixbrlOptions = new FinanceConvertOptions
{
    Format = FinanceFileType.IXbrl
};

OFX Format

OFX (Open Financial Exchange) is used for financial data exchange between institutions and applications:

FinanceConvertOptions ofxOptions = new FinanceConvertOptions
{
    Format = FinanceFileType.Ofx
};

Format Support Notes

Supported conversions:

XBRL ↔ iXBRL (bidirectional conversion between standard and inline XBRL)

Not supported:

Conversion from standard document formats (PDF, Word, Excel) to financial formats
Conversion from financial formats to other formats (PDF, images, etc.)
OFX conversions to/from XBRL or iXBRL

Financial formats like XBRL require highly specific data structures, taxonomies, and metadata that are not present in general documents.
