    ...

Parameter	Type	Description
load_format	LoadFormat	The format of the document to be loaded.

Examples

Shows how to load an encrypted Microsoft Word document.

doc = None
# Aspose.Words throw an exception if we try to open an encrypted document without its password.
with self.assertRaises(Exception):
    doc = aw.Document(file_name=MY_DIR + 'Encrypted.docx')
# When loading such a document, the password is passed to the document's constructor using a LoadOptions object.
options = aw.loading.LoadOptions(password='docPassword')
# There are two ways of loading an encrypted document with a LoadOptions object.
# 1 -  Load the document from the local file system by filename:
doc = aw.Document(file_name=MY_DIR + 'Encrypted.docx', load_options=options)
# 2 -  Load the document from a stream:
with system_helper.io.File.open_read(MY_DIR + 'Encrypted.docx') as stream:
    doc = aw.Document(stream=stream, load_options=options)

Shows how save a web page as a .docx file.

url = 'https://products.aspose.com/words/'
with io.BytesIO(urlopen(url).read()) as stream:
    # The URL is used again as a "base_uri" to ensure that any relative image paths are retrieved correctly.
    options = aw.loading.LoadOptions(aw.LoadFormat.HTML, '', url)
    # Load the HTML document from stream and pass the LoadOptions object.
    doc = aw.Document(stream, options)
    # At this stage, we can read and edit the document's contents and then save it to the local file system.
    doc.save(ARTIFACTS_DIR + 'Document.insert_html_from_web_page.docx')

Shows how to specify a base URI when opening an html document.

# Suppose we want to load an .html document that contains an image linked by a relative URI
# while the image is in a different location. In that case, we will need to resolve the relative URI into an absolute one.
# We can provide a base URI using an HtmlLoadOptions object.
load_options = aw.loading.HtmlLoadOptions(load_format=aw.LoadFormat.HTML, password='', base_uri=IMAGE_DIR)
self.assertEqual(aw.LoadFormat.HTML, load_options.load_format)
doc = aw.Document(file_name=MY_DIR + 'Missing image.html', load_options=load_options)
# While the image was broken in the input .html, our custom base URI helped us repair the link.
image_shape = doc.get_child_nodes(aw.NodeType.SHAPE, True)[0].as_shape()
self.assertTrue(image_shape.is_image)
# This output document will display the image that was missing.
doc.save(file_name=ARTIFACTS_DIR + 'HtmlLoadOptions.BaseUri.docx')
