2. Input the command line
In MS-DOS interface, you need to input the command line which is made up with called program, source file, target file and resolution parameter for converting the document of OpenOffice to image. To write the right command line, you can refer to the following one:
doc2pdf -i C:\file-in.odt -o C:\file-out.jpg -r 200
The following example is the application of the basic template above and we can analyze it specially.
"C:\Program Files\docPrint Pro v5.0\doc2pdf.exe" -i "C:\Documents and Settings\admin\Desktop\demo\file-in.odt" -o C:\file-out.jpg -r 200
Where
(1) "C:\Program Files\docPrint Pro v5.0\doc2pdf.exe" is the path of called program doc2pdf.exe. If you don’t want to input the long file path into the command line window, you can directly drag the file you need into the command line window.
(2) -i "C:\Documents and Settings\admin\Desktop\demo\file-in.odt" is the path of source file. We take ODT document as the example of OpenOffice document.
(3) -o C:\file-out.jpg is the path of target file and we take JPG image format as the output image format.
(4) -r 200 is the resolution of target file, which means the X and Y resolution of the target file have been set as 200 DPI. If you want to differ from X and Y resolution, you can input –r 300x200 which means X resolution has been set as 300 DPI and Y resolution has been set as 200 DPI.
