Load an Office document for conversion in C#

MS Office

To load and convert a Word document from your local storage to a different file type, use the LoadFromFile method from the GdPictureDocumentConverter class. This method requires the following parameters:

  • FilePath — The path to a Word document to convert.
  • DocumentFormat — The file format represented as a member of the DocumentFormat enumeration.

To load and convert a Word document from your local storage, use the following code:

using GdPictureDocumentConverter gdpictureDocumentConverter = new GdPictureDocumentConverter();
// Specify the file format.
GdPicture14.DocumentFormat format = GdPicture14.DocumentFormat.DocumentFormatDOCX;
// Load a Word document from a file.
gdpictureDocumentConverter.LoadFromFile(@"C:\temp\source.docx", format);
gdpictureDocumentConverter.SaveAsPDF(@"C:\temp\output.pdf");
