Convert Word to TIFF Document in Java

In this section, we are going to convert Word to Image (TIFF document) using Java code snippet. The source word document will be loaded from clouds storage and after the conversion, it will be saved in same cloud storage.

  • Firstly, create an object of WordsApi where we pass the Client ID and Client Secret as parameters.
  • Secondly, read the input Word document from the local drive using the File object.
  • Thirdly, create the UploadFileRequest instance which requires File instance as an argument.
  • Now call the method uploadFile(…) to upload the Word document to cloud storage.
  • Create an object of GetDocumentWithFormatRequest(…) while providing an input Word document name, output format value as TIFF, and the resultant file name as arguments.
  • Finally, call the method getDocumentWithFormat(…) to convert Word to Image and save the output in Cloud storage.

The sample Word document used in the above example can be downloaded from test_multi_pages.docx and the resultant TIFF document from Converted.tiff.

Word into Picture using cURL Commands

In this section, we are going to use the cURL commands for Word into Picture conversion. Now, the first step is to generate a JWT access token while executing the following command.

curl -v "https://api.aspose.cloud/connect/token" \
-X POST \
-d "grant_type=client_credentials&client_id=bb959721-5780-4be6-be35-ff5c3a6aa4a2&client_secret=4d84d5f6584160cbd91dba1fe145db14" \
-H "Content-Type: application/x-www-form-urlencoded" \
-H "Accept: application/json"

Once we have JWT token, please the following command to load Word document from cloud storage and save into TIFF document. The resultant TIFF is also stored in cloud storage.

curl -v -X GET "https://api.aspose.cloud/v4.0/words/Resultant.docx?format=TIFF&outPath=converted.tiff" \
-H  "accept: application/octet-stream" \
-H  "Authorization: Bearer <JWT Token>"
