Return Value

You cannot use the DocumentOptions class directly. Instead, use one of the derived classes to get and set the options associated with a document format. The following table lists the document formats and the DocumentOptions derived class associated with it:

Format (the value of format)	Class
DocumentFormat.Ltd	LtdDocumentOptions
DocumentFormat.Pdf	PdfDocumentOptions
DocumentFormat.Doc	DocDocumentOptions
DocumentFormat.Rtf	RtfDocumentOptions
DocumentFormat.Html	HtmlDocumentOptions
DocumentFormat.Text	TextDocumentOptions
DocumentFormat.Emf	EmfDocumentOptions
DocumentFormat.Text	TextDocumentOptions

To change the options used with a particular format, pefrorm the following steps:

1. Use the DocumentWriter.GetOptions method of the DocumentWriter being used, passing DocumentFormat desired in to the format parameter. Note that the resulting object from the base DocumentOptions class needs to be cast to appropriate derived class described in the table above.
2. Use the various derived class properties to change the options.
3. Use DocumentWriter.SetOptions to set the new options in the engine.
4. Now you can call the DocumentWriter.BeginDocument method (with the desired DocumentFormat for the format parameter) to create a new document and add the pages.
