File Import

If you want to create a searchable PDF (includes text), or get the detected data or text of the imported file, use loadFile

import { DocutainSDK } from '@docutain/capacitor-plugin-docutain-sdk'

const result = await DocutainSDK.loadFile(filePath)
if(result.return)
{
//generate a PDF from the imported file
const destinationPath "TestPDF.PDF";
const pdfFile = DocutainSDK.writePDF(destinationPath,true,"A4");
if(pdfFile != null)
{
//do something with the generated pdf file
}
else
{
//error occured
}
}
else
{
//error occured
const error = await DocutainSDK.getLastError();
}
