Get default load options for a source format
GroupDocs.Conversion allows you to get default load options for the source document format. This will allow you to get default load options runtime, knowing the source format.
Here are the steps to follow:
- Call the static GetPossibleConversion method of Converter class with source file extension as a parameter.
- From received possible conversion read the LoadOptions property.
- Create new instance of Converter class and pass source document path as a constructor parameter and load options from the previous step
- Instantiate the proper ConvertOptions class e.g. (PdfConvertOptions, WordProcessingConvertOptions, SpreadsheetConvertOptions etc.)
- Call Convert method of Converter class instance and pass filename for the converted document and the instance of ConvertOptions from the previous step
Following code snippet shows how to get default load options for a wordprocessing document:
var possibleConversions = Converter.GetPossibleConversions("docx");
var loadOptions = (WordProcessingLoadOptions) possibleConversions.LoadOptions;
loadOptions.Password = "12345";
using (Converter converter = new Converter("password_protected.docx", () => loadOptions))
{
var convertOptions = new PdfConvertOptions();
converter.Convert(outputFile, convertOptions);
}
