Convert OXPS to TIFF in Java & J2SE Applications

Convert Password Protected OXPS to TIFF

Accurately load and convert documents that are protected with a password within your Java based applications. The file format conversion API also supports rendering remote documents from different sources including S3, Blob, FTP, Stream, URL or a local disk.

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

Source Document Information Extraction

The documents information extraction feature not only allows getting the basic information about the source document file but it also supports extracting some valuable file-format specific information such as project start and end dates of a Microsoft Project file, any printing restrictions on a PDF document, list of folders enclosed in an Outlook data file etc.

Convert popular document file formats on different operating systems such as Windows, Linux or macOS while using development environments such as NetBeans, IntelliJ IDEA and Eclipse.

Convert Specific Word Pages to PDF in Java

Java document conversion 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 Word document to the resultant PDF file.

Create a new instance of Converter class and load input (Word) 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 (PDF) for the converted document

Caching Converted Document Results

In some cases, the converted document size is bigger and it takes time to be converted. The document conversion library offers the caching feature to efficiently manage such situations and speed up the repetitive conversion process. Enable the ICache interface to work with custom cache implementation using the extension point and control the cache conversion, as you prefer.

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 OXPS file format?

OXPS file format is a type of document file created by Microsoft as a successor to the XPS format. The OXPS format was introduced in the 2011 version of Microsoft Office and provides several advantages compared to the XPS format, including the ability to embed fonts, better support for embedded vector graphics, built-in support for digital signatures and encryption, and the ability to embed other document types. OXPS files are based on the OpenXPS format, an open source format based on the Open Packaging Conventions (OPC) of Microsoft’s .NET framework. This makes OXPS files easier to share across different platforms and with different applications. OXPS files can be opened with Microsoft Office, LibreOffice, Corel WordPerfect, and other software which supports the OpenXPS format. Although OXPS files provide several advantages over XPS files, both formats are still supported and are compatible with modern Microsoft Office applications. OXPS files are the preferred format for sharing Microsoft Office documents, but XPS files can still be used for documents that need to be viewed or printed out in an XPS viewer or other software that supports the XPS format.

What is TIFF file format?

TIFF (Tag Image File Format) is an image file format commonly used in digital photography, desktop publishing, graphic design and image editing. It supports lossless compression and is designed to store large and complex images in a small file size. TIFF files are supported by a wide range of applications, and are commonly used in digital photography, desktop publishing, print and digital graphic design, and image editing. TIFF files have a variety of features that make them ideal for use in a variety of applications. They are able to store multiple color channels, support transparencies, provide lossless data compression, and allow for the exchange and manipulation of images between multiple applications. Additionally, they are considered to be “platform independent”, meaning they can be opened and edited in any platform or operating system.

TIFF is an open standard format and is widely supported by many graphics and photo applications. It is also an ISO standard format and is recommended as a “best practice” by the International Press Telecommunications Council (IPTC). TIFF provides significantly better quality, color accuracy, and data compression than the other popular image formats, such as JPEG and GIF. As a result, it is often the preferred file format for digital images.
