Create a DOCX using C#

Aspose.Words for .NET allows you to create a blank Word document and add content to the file.

// Create a Word document.
Document doc = new Document();

// Use a DocumentBuilder instance to add content to the file.
DocumentBuilder builder = new DocumentBuilder(doc);

// Write a new paragraph to the document.
builder.Writeln("This is an example of a Word document created in C#");

// Save it as a DOCX file. The output format is automatically determined by the filename extension.
doc.Save("OutputWordDocument.docx");

Create a PDF in C#

Aspose.Words for .NET allows you to create a new PDF file and fill it with data.

// Create a PDF document.
Document pdf = new Document();

// Use a DocumentBuilder instance to add content to the file.
DocumentBuilder builder = new DocumentBuilder(pdf);

// Write a new paragraph to the document.
builder.Writeln("This is an example of a PDF document created using C#");

// Save it as a PDF file.
pdf.Save("OutputDocument.pdf");

Convert a Word document to HTML with C#

You can convert Microsoft Word to PDF, XPS, Markdown, HTML, JPEG, TIFF, and other file formats. The following snippet demonstrates the conversion from DOCX to HTML:

// Load a Word file from the local drive.
Document doc = new Document("InputWordDocument.docx");

// Save it to HTML format.
doc.Save("OutputHtmlDocument.html");

Import a PDF and save as a DOCX via C#

In addition, you can import a PDF file into your .NET application and export it as a DOCX format file without the need to install Microsoft Word:

// Load a PDF file from the local drive.
Document pdf = new Document("InputDocument.pdf");

// Save it to DOCX format.
pdf.Save("OutputWordDocument.docx");

Generate a summary of the document(s) using OpenAI or Google models.

Document firstDoc = new Document("DocumentA.docx");
Document secondDoc = new Document("DocumentB.docx");

// Use OpenAI or Google generative language models.
IAiModelText model = (IAiModelText)AiModel.Create(AiModelType.Gpt4OMini).WithApiKey(apiKey);

Document summary = model.Summarize(firstDoc, new SummarizeOptions() { SummaryLength = SummaryLength.Short });
summary.Save("SummaryA.docx");

Document multiSummary = model.Summarize(new Document[] { firstDoc, secondDoc }, new SummarizeOptions() { SummaryLength = SummaryLength.Long });
multiSummary.Save("SummaryA+B.docx");

Translate a Word document using your preferred AI model, such as OpenAI or Google models.

Document doc = new Document("Document.docx");

// Use Google generative language models.
IAiModelText model = (GoogleAiModel)AiModel.Create(AiModelType.Gemini15Flash).WithApiKey(apiKey);

Document translatedDoc = model.Translate(doc, Language.Arabic);
translatedDoc.Save("AiTranslated.docx");
