SFDT to DOCX export

Document Editor supports server-side export of Syncfusion Document Text (.sfdt) to Doc, DOCX, RTF, Txt, WordML, HTML formats using server-side helper **Syncfusion.EJ2.DocumentEditor** available in ASP.NET Core & ASP.NET MVC platform in the below NuGet’s.

Please refer the following code example.

    //API controller for the conversion.
    [HttpPost]
    public void ExportSFDT([FromBody]SaveParameter data)
    {
        Stream document = WordDocument.Save(data.content, FormatType.Docx);
        FileStream file = new FileStream("sample.docx", FileMode.OpenOrCreate, FileAccess.ReadWrite);
        document.CopyTo(file);
        file.Close();
        document.Close();
    }

    public class SaveParameter
    {
        public string content { get; set; }
    }

Please refer the client side example to serialize the sfdt and send to the server.
