Office

Gotenberg provides the endpoint /convert/office for Office document conversions.

It accepts POST requests with a multipart/form-data Content-Type.

Basic

You may send one or more Office documents. Following file extensions are accepted:

• .txt
• .rtf
• .fodt
• .doc
• .docx
• .odt
• .xls
• .xlsx
• .ods
• .ppt
• .pptx
• .odp

All files will be merged into a single resulting PDF.

Attention: currently, unoconv cannot perform concurrent conversions. That's why for Office conversions, the API does only one conversion at a time. See the scalability section to find how to mitigate this issue.

cURL

$ curl --request POST \
    --url http://localhost:3000/convert/office \
    --header 'Content-Type: multipart/form-data' \
    --form files=@document.docx \
    --form files=@document2.docx \
    -o result.pdf

Go

import "github.com/thecodingmachine/gotenberg-go-client/v5"

func main() {
    c := &gotenberg.Client{Hostname: "http://localhost:3000"}
    req, _ := gotenberg.NewOfficeRequest("document.docx", "document2.docx")
    dest := "result.pdf"
    c.Store(req, dest)
}

PHP

use TheCodingMachine\Gotenberg\Client;
use TheCodingMachine\Gotenberg\DocumentFactory;
use TheCodingMachine\Gotenberg\OfficeRequest;

$client = new Client('http://localhost:3000', new \Http\Adapter\Guzzle6\Client());
$files = [
    DocumentFactory::makeFromPath('document.docx', 'document.docx'),
    DocumentFactory::makeFromPath('document2.docx', 'document2.docx'),
];
$request = new OfficeRequest($files);
$dest = "result.pdf";
$client->store($request, $dest);

Orientation

You may also customize the resulting PDF format.

By default, it will be rendered with portrait orientation.
