Question : I have a list of Microsoft Word Docs , which need to be converted into html . How can I do this with Powershell? I've already checked ConvertTo-Html , but it's a different purpose
Answer: Converting a list of Microsoft Word documents is repetitive and time consuming. Powershell creates a new com object , which filters the Word Doc into html format.
The assembly loads the type [Microsoft.Office.Interop.Word.WdSaveFormat]
This script reads all Word documents in the $srcFiles path and outputs them into the $htmlOutputPath
[void][System.Reflection.Assembly]::LoadWithPartialName('Microsoft.Office.Interop.Word.WdSaveFormat')
$docSrc="C:\word\"
$htmlOutputPath="C:\word\"
$srcFiles = Get-ChildItem $docSrc -filter "*.doc"
$saveFormat = [Enum]::Parse([Microsoft.Office.Interop.Word.WdSaveFormat], "wdFormatFilteredHTML");
$wordApp = new-object -comobject word.application
$wordApp.Visible = $False
function saveashtml
{
$openDoc = $wordApp.documents.open($doc.FullName);
$openDoc.saveas([ref]"$htmlOutputPath\$doc.fullname.html", [ref]$saveFormat);
$openDoc.close();
}
ForEach ($doc in $srcFiles)
{
Write-Host "Converting to html :" $doc.FullName
saveashtml
$doc = $null
}
$wordApp.quit();
