      Overview

      The file preview feature allows generating images from multiple types of files for preview and performing basic processing operations on the output images synchronously. It addresses the display problems of file content on webpages and enables easy online file preview on PC, app, and other terminals. It is widely suitable for diverse business scenarios, such as online education, enterprise OA, and website transcoding.
      Note：
      To use this feature, you need to click File Processing on the management page of a bucket in the CI console, find the File Preview configuration item, and toggle it on. Then, you can call a specific file preview API to preview files in the bucket synchronously or asynchronously.
      File preview is a paid feature. For billing details, see File Processing Fees.Upon the initial generation of document preview to image usage in each account, Cloud Infinite will issue a free quota resource package for document preview to image conversion, encompassing 6000 pages and valid for two months. Normal billing will commence once the usage exceeds the quota or the resource package expires.
      The conversion logic of file transcoding is the same as that of local printing. If you need to change the conversion orientation (such as outputting an Excel file with many columns horizontally to one page), you need to change the source file print settings.
