Developers can also transform Word (DOC or DOCX) document into other formats like PDF, Web (HTML, MHTML), Images (JPG, PNG TIFF, BMP), Markdown and many others without any need to install Microsoft Word.

Create new instance of Converter class and pass source document path
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

Extract DOT Document Information

Conholdate.Total document information extraction feature not only provides basic file information of source document (DOT), but also extracts valuable format-specific details. For instance, it can extract project start and end dates from a Microsoft Project file, printing restrictions from a PDF document, folder lists from an Outlook data file, and layer and layout information from a CAD document. With this feature, users can quickly and easily access crucial information from a variety of file types.

Conholdate.Total for Java APIs also offer the auto-detection feature for unknown file format extensions of source documents in byte stream format, making it a convenient tool for efficient document conversion.

Convert Specific DOT Pages to WMF in Java

Java document processing API allows you to choose selected pages from the source document and accurately convert to the supported document format. The code example below shows how to convert the 1st and 4th pages of a DOT document to the resultant WMF file.

Create a new instance of Converter class and load input (DOT) document
Instantiate the proper ConvertOptions class e.g. (PdfConvertOptions, WordProcessingConvertOptions, SpreadsheetConvertOptions etc)
Set setPages property of the ConvertOptions instance and mention specific page number to be converted
Call Convert method of Converter class instance and pass filename (WMF) for the converted document

Cache Converted WMF Results

The document conversion process can sometimes result in larger file sizes and longer conversion times. To address this, Conholdate.Total’s document conversion library offers a caching feature that optimizes the repetitive conversion process. By enabling the ICache interface, developers can work with custom cache implementations using the extension point to control caching as desired.

The conversion result is saved to the local drive by default but any type of cache storage can be supported by implementing the appropriate interfaces such as Amazon S3, Dropbox, Google Drive, Windows Azure, Reddis or any other.

What is DOT file format?

DOT is a plain text graph description language used by the Graphviz visualization software. It is based on the DOT language developed by AT&T Labs for specifying graphs in a text-based format. The DOT format is simple and readable, allowing graphs to be rapidly written and edited. It also enables parts of large graphs to be quickly examined without having to edit the entire file. By encoding the graph structure in text, the DOT format makes it easy to share graph data with other programs. Graphs specified in the DOT format can be rendered into images using the Graphviz software.

What is WMF file format?

WMF (Windows Metafile Format) is a popular vector graphics file format that was originally created by Microsoft. WMF files are used to store 2D vector and bitmap images, including drawn objects and text. They are commonly created in other programs and then imported into various Microsoft applications, such as Word, PowerPoint, and Publisher. WMF files are known for their versatility and compatibility with a wide range of programs and operating systems.

One of the primary advantages of WMF files is that they are highly scalable. They can be resized without any loss of quality, making them ideal for use in a variety of applications, including print design and desktop publishing. WMF files can also be edited and modified using a variety of software programs, including Adobe Illustrator and CorelDRAW.

Despite their popularity, WMF files have been superseded by the Enhanced Metafile (EMF) format, which provides additional functionality and features. The EMF format is designed to provide better support for more advanced graphics, such as gradients, patterns, and transparency. However, WMF files are still widely used and remain a popular choice for many designers and professionals.
