how can i get contents of word page in Office 365 app

I am creating an Office 365 word application, in which I want to get all the contents (text + images) of page. Currently I am using getSelectedDataAsync() function but in this case I need to select all the contents.

Is there any other way to get all contents without selecting it?

Yes. If you were using the Office 2016,Word for iPad, Word for Mac, we can use the code below to get the text of Word document:

 function getDataFromBody() {
    // Run a batch operation against the Word object model.
    Word.run(function (context) {

        // Create a proxy object for the document body.
        var body = context.document.body;

        body.load("text");

        // Synchronize the document state by executing the queued commands,
        // and return a promise to indicate task completion.
        return context.sync().then(function () {              
            console.log("Body txt contents: " + body.text);
        });
    })
    .catch(function (error) {
        console.log("Error: " + JSON.stringify(error));
        if (error instanceof OfficeExtension.Error) {
            console.log("Debug info: " + JSON.stringify(error.debugInfo));
        }
    });
}

You can refer to the new version of API from here.

Get the Html of body content for Word:

   function getDataFromBody() {
    // Run a batch operation against the Word object model.
    Word.run(function (context) {

        // Create a proxy object for the document body.
        var body = context.document.body;

        // Queue a commmand to get the HTML contents of the body.
        var bodyHTML = body.getHtml();

        // Synchronize the document state by executing the queued commands,
        // and return a promise to indicate task completion.
        return context.sync().then(function () {
            console.log("Body HTML contents: " + bodyHTML.value);
        });
    })
    .catch(function (error) {
        console.log("Error: " + JSON.stringify(error));
        if (error instanceof OfficeExtension.Error) {
            console.log("Debug info: " + JSON.stringify(error.debugInfo));
        }
    });
}
