How to convert office 2 pdf via Conversion SDK

System requirements

Platform: Windows
Programming Language:  C,C++, C#, Java, Python, Nodejs
License Key requirement: ‘Office2PDF’ module permission in the license key

Conversion interface

Office2PDF provides three conversion interfaces: ConvertFromWord, ConvertFromExcel, ConvertFromPowerPoint.In Foxit PDF Conversion SDK, these interfaces are defined in the header file ”fs_office2pdf.h”.Take “ConvertFromWord” as an example to introduce interface parameters in Windows.(The parameters of the two interfaces “ConvertFromExcel” and “ConvertFromPowerPoint” are similar to “ConvertFromWord”.)

The parameters for the interface come in two varieties: file path and stream.

The file path parameters are as follows:

Parameter	Windows
src_word_file_path	Path of a Word format file. This should not be an empty string.
src_file_password	(Reserved,encrypted files are unsupported yet)Password for the input Word format file. If no password is needed for the file,please pass an empty string.
saved_pdf_path	Path of the saved PDF file as conversion result. This should not be an empty string.

The stream parameters are as follows:

Parameter	Windows
src_word_reader	A ReaderCallback object which is implemented by user to load a word document. It should not be NULL.
src_file_password	(Reserved,encrypted files are unsupported yet)Password for the input Word format file. If no password is needed for the file, please pass an empty string.
saved_pdf_file_stream	A foxit::common::file::StreamCallback object which is implemented by user to read the contents of the converted PDF file. It should not be NULL.
