Hi guys! Do you want to preserve legacy control characters in Word documents? Many of you must want to work with font fallback for Google Noto fonts? You will love to export the list labels of Word document into TXT file format with specific character and change the text alignment of axis tick labels of chart. So what’s the solution?
It is Aspose.Words for .NET 19.3. You can work with these features using it.
So how to work these features? Let’s talk about these one by one.
Preserve Legacy Control Characters while Exporting Document to OOXML
Some document formats support legacy control characters. MS Word does not save these symbols to DOCX format (more accurately in OOXML formats). However, we added new property KeepLegacyControlChars in OoxmlSaveOptions class to preserve such control characters. So far only one legacy character (ShortDateTime) is supported which declared in the “DOC” format.
Here’s how you can use this property:
Predefined Font Fallback Settings for Google Noto Fonts
You may know about Noto. It is a font family comprising over a hundred individual fonts. We have added predefined font fallback settings for Google Noto fonts. These are free fonts licensed under SIL OFL.
Let me clarify two things here:
- The predefined settings uses only Sans style Noto fonts with regular weight.
- Aspose.Words does not support advanced typography. So, the Noto fonts that use advanced typography may be rendered inaccurately
The following code example shows how to use predefined font fallback settings.
Don’t stop reading now! There are more Aspose.Words’ features for you. Amazing, isn’t it?
Text Alignment of Axis Tick Labels
By default, MS Word aligns Chart Label to the center. However, you can change it using ChartAxis.TickLabelAlignment property. We have simple example for you here:
Sound good? Yes, it is!
Indentation of List Levels When Exporting Word Document to Plain Text Format
Starting from Aspose.Words 19.3, you can get the ListIndentation object and specify how many and which character to use for indentation of list levels. By default, no indentation is exported to text file format.
Here’s how to work with list indentation.
Using Tab Character
Using Space Character
Using Default Indentation
Wait, there are many other features, enhancement, and bug fixes included in this release. Here you can get the detail!
