    Load WordProcessing document with options

    GroupDocs.Conversion provides WordProcessingLoadOptions to give you control over how the source WordProcessing document will be processed. The following options could be set: 

    • setFormat allows you to specify explicitly the type of the source WordProcessing document. Available options are: Doc, Docm, Docx, Dot, Dotm, Dotx, Rtf, Odt, Ott, Mobi, Txt.
    • setAutoFontSubstitution whether false, GroupDocs.Conversion uses the DefaultFont for the substitution of missing fonts. If true, GroupDocs.Conversion evaluates all the related fields in FontInfo (Panose, Sig etc) for the missing font and finds the closest match among the available font sources. 
      Note: that the font substitution mechanism will override the DefaultFont in cases when FontInfo for the missing font is available in the document.
    • setDefaultFont specifies the font to use if a document font is missing.
    • setFontSubstitutes sets substitute specific fonts from the source document.
    • setPassword specifies a password to unlock the protected document.
    • setHideWordTrackedChanges specifies that tracked changes should not be included in the converted document.
    • setHideComments specifies that comments from the source document should be hidden in the converted document.

    Hide comments

    The following code snippet shows how to convert a WordProcessing document and hide comments:

    const loadOptions = new groupdocs.conversion.WordProcessingLoadOptions()
loadOptions.setHideComments(true)

const outputPath = "ConvertWordProcessingByHidingComments.pdf"

const converter = new groupdocs.conversion.Converter("sample.docx", loadOptions)
const convertOptions = new groupdocs.conversion.PdfConvertOptions()

console.log(`WordProcessing document converted successfully to ${outputPath} (by hiding comments)`)
converter.convert(outputPath, convertOptions)

    Hide tracked changes

    The following code snippet shows how to convert a WordProcessing document and hide tracked changes:

    const loadOptions = new groupdocs.conversion.WordProcessingLoadOptions()
loadOptions.setHideWordTrackedChanges(true)

const outputPath = "ConvertWordProcessingByHidingTrackedChanges.pdf"

const converter = new groupdocs.conversion.Converter("sample.docx", loadOptions)
const convertOptions = new groupdocs.conversion.PdfConvertOptions()

console.log(`WordProcessing document converted successfully to ${outputPath} (By hiding tracked changes)`)
converter.convert(outputPath, convertOptions)

    Specify font substitution

    The following code snippet shows how to convert a WordProcessing document and specify font substitution for missing fonts:

    const java = require('java') 

const outputPath = "ConvertWordProcessingBySpecifyingFontSubstitution.pdf"

const fontSubstitutes = java.newInstanceSync("java.util.ArrayList")
fontSubstitutes.add(groupdocs.conversion.FontSubstitute.create("Tahoma", "Arial"));
fontSubstitutes.add(groupdocs.conversion.FontSubstitute.create("Times New Roman", "Arial"));

const loadOptions = new groupdocs.conversion.WordProcessingLoadOptions()
loadOptions.setDefaultFont("Helvetica.ttf");
loadOptions.setAutoFontSubstitution(false);
loadOptions.setFontSubstitutes(fontSubstitutes);

const converter = new groupdocs.conversion.Converter("sample.docx", loadOptions)
const convertOptions = new groupdocs.conversion.PdfConvertOptions()

console.log(`WordProcessing document converted successfully to ${outputPath} (by specifying font subs)`)
converter.convert(outputPath, convertOptions)
