[![][1], conversion to SWF is no longer supported in Aspose.Words Cloud REST API. Please go through the [Aspose.Words Cloud 18.2 Release Notes][2] for a full set of changes to the API.

New Features and Enhancements

1. Revamped Node.js SDK Released

A fully reworked version of Aspose Cloud Node.js SDK has been released. Node.js Cloud SDK is a wrapper around [REST API][3], allowing to process documents in Node.js 4.8 or higher quickly and easily, gaining all benefits of strong types and IDE highlights. The distribution is available at [npm][4] and source code at GitHub

New SDK is fully supported and has the following advantages over the previous versions:

  • SDK is fully in sync with the API, all missing methods are added
  • Classes, methods, and properties have comments and are IDE-friendly
  • Better security
  • Usage of Request/Response classes to represent long lists of parameters. This allows for cleaner code and easier backward-compatibility going forward

SDK is not backward compatible with the previous generation because of the last item. It should be straightforward to convert program code to using Request/Response objects, if you need any help on migration please ask at [Free Support Forum][5].

2. Conversion of encrypted PDF files to Word

Aspose.Words now support [encrypted PDF files for PDF to Word conversion][6].

3. Dropping support for Word to SWF conversion

Based on Adobe’s [deprecation of Flash][7], conversion to SWF is no longer supported in Aspose.Words Cloud REST API.

4. Dropping support for deprecated save option properties
