Load password-protected document

GroupDocs.Conversion supports the conversion of documents that are protected with a password.

To load and convert a password-protected document, follow these steps:

  1. Create an instance of the Converter class and pass the source document path and the load options delegate as constructor parameters.
  2. Instantiate the appropriate ConvertOptions class e.g. (PdfConvertOptions, WordProcessingConvertOptions, SpreadsheetConvertOptions, etc.)
  3. Call the convert method of the Converter class instance and pass the filename for the converted document and the instance of ConvertOptions from the previous step.

The following code snippet shows how to convert password-protected document:

import com.groupdocs.conversion.Converter;
import com.groupdocs.conversion.options.convert.PdfConvertOptions;
import com.groupdocs.conversion.options.load.WordProcessingLoadOptions;

public class LoadPasswordProtectedFile {
    public static void loadPasswordProtectedFile() {
        // Set file path
        String filePath = "./password-protected.docx"
    
        // Instantiate load options and set password
        WordProcessingLoadOptions loadOptions = WordProcessingLoadOptions()
        loadOptions.setPassword("12345");

        // Specify source file path and load options
        Converter converter = new Converter(filePath, () -> loadOptions);

        // Specify output file location and convert options
        String outputPath = "./password-protected.pdf"
        PdfConvertOptions convertOptions = PdfConvertOptions()
        convertOptions.setPassword("67890");

        // Convert and save to output path
        converter.convert(outputPath, convertOptions)
    }

    public static void main(String[] args){
        loadPasswordProtectedFile();
    }
}
