`vm.convertHtml = function() {

 $window.mammoth.convertToHtml({path: "referto.docx"})
.then(function(result){
    var html = result.value; // The generated HTML
    var messages = result.messages; // Any messages, such as warnings during conversion
})
.done();

but I get always the error : Could not find file in options

ArrayBuffer() is a method of File, which is a native type in the browser.

A short snippet of how I got this working in Angular (11). The file came from an <input> upload

import {convertToHtml} from "mammoth/mammoth.browser";
...
    const arrayBuffer: ArrayBuffer = await this.file.arrayBuffer();
    const htmlDoc: string = await convertToHtml({arrayBuffer});

Apologies to the author for continuing to post to this closed issue but I hope it helps someone.
