Interface

PDF-to-Word API exposes its features through the single class PDF2Word that implements the following interface:

interface IPDF2Word : IDispatch
{
        // open source .pdf file
        HRESULT open(BSTR src);

        // the main conversion cycle
        HRESULT convert(BSTR dest);

        // get progress of the conversion
        HRESULT get_conversion_progress([out,retval] LONG* progress);

        // get/set 'Convert PDF graphics' property
        HRESULT get_graph([out,retval] BYTE* pVal); // get value of "graph" property
        HRESULT put_graph([in] BYTE newVal); // set value of "graph" property

        // get/set optimization mode (1 - preserve original layout,
        // 2 - optimize for text flow)
        HRESULT get_mode([out,retval] ULONG* pVal); // get value of "mode" property
        HRESULT put_mode([in] ULONG newVal); // set value of "mode" property

        // get/set pages range to convert (e.g. "1,3,5-7")
        HRESULT get_pages([out,retval] BSTR* pVal ); // get value of "pages" property
        HRESULT put_pages([in] BSTR newVal ); // set value of "pages" property

        // get/set password for PDF document if any
        HRESULT get_pswd([out,retval] BSTR* pVal ); // get value of "pswd" property
        HRESULT put_pswd([in] BSTR newVal ); // set value of "pswd" property

        // get/set 'Recognize Tables' property
        HRESULT get_tab([out,retval] BYTE* pVal); // get value of "tab" property
        HRESULT put_tab([in] BYTE newVal); // set value of "tab" property
};
