Load document from Stream
There might be the case when your document is not physically located on the disk. Instead, you have the document in the form of a stream. In this case, to avoid the overhead of saving stream as a file on disk, GroupDocs.Viewer enables you to render the file streams directly.
The following are the steps to be followed:
- Specify the method to obtain document stream;
- Pass method’s name to Viewer class constructor.
Following code snippet serves this purpose.
public void loadDocumentFromStream() {
FileInputStream inputStream = new FileInputStream("sample.docx"))
try (Viewer viewer = new Viewer(inputStream) {
HtmlViewOptions viewOptions = HtmlViewOptions.forEmbeddedResources();
viewer.view(viewOptions);
}
}
