How to get content of a node or bookmark as HTML, WordML, RTF?

Many customers of Aspose.Words ask this question, but so far there was no simple one-line-of-code way of doing that in Aspose.Words.

The general solution we recommended so far was to “extract” the document fragment you are interested in into a separate Document object and then use Document.Save to save it in the desired format. Extracting the fragment might be done either by deleting all content from the … Continue Reading

Aspose.Words for .NET is the dog food again and we are eating it in our new product Aspose.Recognition for .NET.

Aspose.Recognition is a fresh new product from Aspose and it is touted to later grow into a powerful “fixed-layout” to “flow-layout” document converter. At the moment it is only a 1.0 BETA and can convert PDF to all output formats supported by Aspose.Words for .NET such as DOC, OOXML, RTF, ODT and HTML. Future features planned are OCR document recognition and … Continue Reading

I am happy to announce that Aspose.Words Documentation was updated. It now includes all code examples in three languages: C#, VB.NET and Java!

New Feature: Save as MHTML

We have added a new useful feature: save as MHTML. MHTML is a “web archive” or “single file web page” format. An HTML document and all external resources (images and stylesheets) are stored within a single file. MHTML could be a good option if you need to convert documents to HTML. When saving documents as HTML, Aspose.Words saves images … Continue Reading

There is a number of great products already out there built by great companies and great people that incorporate Aspose.Words for their document processing needs. But I find it especially rewarding when Aspose.Words is used to build a word processing application, especially an online word processor!

We’ve mentioned earlier and got mentioned that the Buzzword team chose Aspose.Words for .NET to use as an engine for loading and saving documents in various formats. We keep working hard to make sure they are … Continue Reading

This is a brief update for an article I wrote about a year ago on how to create  Microsoft Office SharePoint Server 2007 DOC to PDF (and other) document converters using Aspose components.

A Bit of History

We have published the article initially at CodeProject in the SharePoint section. The article was actually quite popular and received lots of hits. However, after a few months it was deleted by CodeProject. The reason given for deletion was “the article promotes a … Continue Reading

It struck me from the first day I saw the OOXML specification how “strange” it is. You know borders in MS Word. I mean those text, paragraph and table borders. Complete specfication for a border takes 6 pages in OOXML. I’d say it is a bit too much for such a simple thing as a border, but that’s okay, I guess the more detailed the spec the better.

The problem is that this 6 pages border specification is repeated in the OOXML … Continue Reading
