Altering indents on formatted Word (.doc) files

I am laying out a legal book which has been formatted in Word. The original has a sub para numbering hierachy of
1
1.1
1.1.1
1.1.2...
1.2
1.2.1
1.2.2... etc.
This has been set up in Word as an auto numbering system, to have a fist line indent of 15mm, rest full out. Whenever the text is imported I get a straight 15mm indent with the paragraph number sitting out at -15mm. If I try and override the paragraph style sheet that's been imported, I lose the paragraph numbering.
Any idea on how can I override the Word document style sheet when imported to lose the indent and to have the second line sit underneath the start of the first line?
Hope someone can shed some light on the matter.
Thanks
Keith

the file isn't there.
Is it uploaded?
Is it that exact filename? Case sensitive?
Note-
there are three body tags on the page, with repeated
javascript functions
after the body tags.

Will not show headers of word doc files

I format Word doc files into pdf files to print paperback books. I set the files up with headers and footers. When I am finished I do a print preview and both the headers and footers show up fine but when I convert to pdf the headers aren't there. I am assuming that this is a configuration issue but can't figure out how to fix it. Any suggestions? I would appreciate some help??

I am using Word 2007. I create the header by clicking on headers and footers and filling out the information. I know that I am getting the header in there securely because when I do a print preview it shows up just fine. It just doesn’t travel over to the pdf version. (though the footers make it just fine) I go to Acrobat, click on the create pdf version button and I get a nice pdf version (minus the header)
Thank you for responding. I hope you can help!

How to load word .doc-files into java applications?

Hi,
I want to load a word .doc-file (or any other type of document) into a java application, as part of the application.
Is there any java special library to do it?
Any solution or hint?
Thank you.

No, there is no existing Java library to do it that I am aware of. You could write your own, however, as the Word 97 binary file format is published. I am not sure that the Word 2000, or XP formats are as well, but since they put out the 97 presumably they'd do the same with the rest -- although I am suprised that Micro$$$oft even published the 97 format.
A library such as this would take quite some time write, due to the extensive format, but here's a link to a copy of it just so you can see what it'd take: http://www.redbrick.dcu.ie/~bob/Tech/wword8.html
Also keep in mind that Micro$$$oft has never remained binary compatable between versions. In short, this means that you'd have to parse each version's documents differently. Not a fun task.
If a Java library to read Micro$$$oft file formats already does exist, I'm willing to bet that it costs $$$ mucho dinero $$$.
Hey, aren't proprietary file formats just wonderful?

CR10 Exported MS word doc file not print out

My application (CR10, VB6, Oracle10.2) exports MS word doc file to disk, But when I try to print out, not print out at some printer and print out legal size (8.5x14) at some printer. It set up as Letter (8.5x11) I think in CR, page footer is wrong place. How I can change page footer location to move up in the report?
one more thing...
When I try to open this MS doc file, always prompt pop up and ask "You want to convert to RTF?" I don't understand.
Thank you.

Sachiko,
You might want to try exporting to MS Word from within the Crystal Reports Deisgner and see if you get the same behaviour. If it appears correctly from the Designer then it would suggest an issue with the coding in your application and the issue would be better answered in the BO SDK Application Development forums.
I think the footer is in the wrong place due to the incorrect paper size and don't believe that any formatting of the report itself will correct it.

Need help on converting pdf to original formatted word doc?

Purchased trial for Adobe Acrobat XI Pro and cannot seem to convert pdf files back to the original formatted word docs as promoted by this product. Keep experiencing formating issues which would reuire me to go back and re-work the word doc which defeats the purpose of being able to convert the pdf back to the word doc. Is there a way to keep the original formatting in the word doc when converting from the pdf?
Thanks!

You need to use PDF Maker to have hope of working backwards. However, in practice the best solution is to keep the WORD document and not try to go back and forth. Going from PDF to WORD is hit and miss. If you have equations, you can forget obtaining the result correctly as far as I know, particularly if they are MathType. In general you can convert to DOC or DOCX, but it is not a recommended work flow to use regularly.

How to open and read pdf and micrsoft word (.doc) files or documents

My problem is how to use my BB 9800 software version 6.0.0.546 to read/view pdf files and microsoft office documents. I have also bought documents to go from online and have installed it on my phone, but whenever i try to open it I receive a message that it is incompactible. Any help will be greatly appreciated.

Hi, Sammy.
Why not install a 3rd party PDF reader and Word Doc reader to help open and read pdf and micrsoft word (.doc) files or documents? You can google it and select one whose way of processing is simple and fast to help you with the related converting work. It will be better if it is totally manual and can be customized by users according to our own favors. Remember to check its free trial package first if possible. I hope you success. Good luck.

Download Word .doc file saved in MIME Repository to local PC

I need to store a static Word document on the SAP server and download to the user's browser via a BSP application. I have found code in the IT00 BSP Application to download the Word doc in xstring form to the browser, which will work for what I'm doing. What I cannot seem to find, however, is how to retrieve the Word .doc file stored in the MIME repository and then subsequently how to convert this MIME object to an xstring value. Is there a class or function module available to retrieve and convert the MIME object to an xstring form so that it can be returned as a response back to the browser?

you can use the following code snippet to read mime repository content.
data: o_mr_api type ref to if_mr_api.
if o_mr_api is initial.
o_mr_api = cl_mime_repository_api=>if_mr_api~get_api( ).
endif.
call method o_mr_api->get
exporting
i_url = l_url
importing
e_is_folder = is_folder
e_content = l_current
e_loio = l_loio
exceptions
parameter_missing = 1
error_occured = 2
not_found = 3
permission_failure = 4
others = 5.
l_current will hold the image in a XSTRING var

How to create pdf from word doc file

HI
I have a word doc file. (not docx). I have adobe 8 pro. I wrote a word script to create the file using the distiller. The fonts in the pdf file it makes look wacky. That script looks liek this:
* create archive pdf file
lfilename = "t:\cardeals\pdf\pdf_archive\" + PADL(alltrim(STR(month(date()))),2,"0") + PADL(alltrim(STR(DAY(DATE()))),2,"0") + SUBSTR(ALLTRIM(STR(YEAR(DATE()))),3,2) + "1.pdf"
oWord = createOBJECT("Word.Application")
oWord.DisplayAlerts = .f.
oWord.documents.open('t:\cardeals\cardeals.doc')
oword.ActivePrinter = "\\CSSSERVERONE\Overflow"
oword.application.printout(,,,,,,,4,,,,,,,,,,,)
oWord.PrintOut(.F.,.F.,,"c:\output.ps",,,,,,.F.)
oPDF = CREATEOBJECT ( "PDFDistiller.PDFDistiller.1" )
oPDF.FileToPDF("c:\output.ps", "&lfilename.", "High Quality" )
oWord.application.quit
release oword
I also wrote a script to attempt to print it from the Adobe printer. It seems to work, but when I go to open the created pdf file it I get the following message:
Acrobat could not open mypdf.pdf because it is either not a supported file type or because the file has been damaged.
The code was this:
Set oWordApp = CreateObject("Word.Application")
    Set oDocument = CreateObject("Word.Document")
    oWordApp.Visible = True
    oWordApp.Application.WindowState = wdWindowStateMinimize
    Set oDocument = oWordApp.Documents.Open("t:\cardeals\cardeals.doc")
    strOutputPDFName = "c:\mypdf.pdf"
    holdprtrdefault = oWordApp.ActivePrinter
    oWordApp.ActivePrinter = "Adobe PDF"
    oWordApp.Application.PrintOut FileName:="t:\cardeals\cardeals.doc", _
        Copies:=1, _
        Range:=wdPrintAllDocument, _
        Item:=wdPrintDocumentContent, _
        Pages:="", _
        PageType:=wdPrintAllPages, _
        Collate:=True, _
        Background:=False, _
        PrinttoFile:=False, _
        OutputFileName:=strOutputPDFName
If I clkick on the PDFMaker icon iside word, the resultant file is BEAUTIFUL. Can I automate this from within word? If not, does PDFMaker have a command line utility that I could put in a batch file?

I don't have an answer, but you might get a better response in the scripting forum.

How to associate 1997-2003 Word doc files with Word 2010?

Hi
I am surprised not to be able to find out how to associate word 1997-2003 Word files with Wrod 2010. The object is to have Word 2010 open the document when I click on the document. Many of my Word 1997-2003 documents were created using Word 2010.
When I try to use the associations function in Windows 7 I cannot find the Word program. Checking "Properties" on the Word Icon leads to a program called "CVH.EXE" which does nothing when I try to open doc files with it.
Thank you.

Capturing the output of a jsp page and save that output in a WORD .doc file

Hi,
This is Naveen. I got stuck up with a problem/doubt. URGENT ! URGENT !
My doubt is how to capture the output of a jsp page(the content is dynamic generated) and save that output to a MS-Word doc file.
I know that therez an option of using Servlets Filters, but this concept is supported by Servlet 2.3 spec. and not earlier. And we are working on previous spec. and our web-servers also supports the prev. version and not the 2.3 version.
If incase, therez a third-party utility for free usage, suggestions are appreciated.
Hope most of them came across this kind of functional requirement. If anyone of them succeeded in this, please express ur bitter experience if any, faced during the coding.
Thanks in Advance for help.
Naveen

You can set the MIME content type as .doc and try to open the Page.
res.setContentType("application/vnd.ms-excel"); to generate the Page output as Excel
res.setContentType("application/vnd.ms-word"); to generate the Page output as MS Word doc
Hope this helps..

Need to copy text in e mail and paste to seperate word doc file

Previous to Firefox 4 I could highlight text in body of e mail, select Edit and drop down to copy then minimize screen and select Word Doc file, then paste and print text.
Please advise, Coyote Deb

You have the orange Firefox button?
You can call up the classic menu bar ''temporarily'' by tapping the Alt key or pressing F10. To display the classic menu bar all the time, choose
View > Toolbars > Menu Bar
That will replace the orange Firefox button.
Also, you should be able to copy by right-clicking on the selected text and choosing Copy from the pop-up menu. Could be quicker in some cases.

Thanks for your replies..I think i almost find the solution. I found 2 options to do this. They are :

Can Java be used to parse Microsoft Word(.doc) files?

Hi guys ,
I want to know whether Java can be used to parse Microsoft Word(.doc) files for searching a string or for checking for grammatical errors, etc
Thanks in advance.
Avichal

Hey man, anything and every thing can be done these days.
About ur question doc is like all other normal text files with some extra features and extra character supports and other stuffs.
If u neglect those parts and if u consider it to be a normal text file then its a much simpler job.
Here is a code that searches for the key word in all the doc files, txt files, pdf files and html files
in the mentioned folder and sub folders. Any way its a servlet u can change it to a normal program.
It first check the file to know whether they are doc, pdf, html or txt files if yes then it will read the file and
store the contents in the vector and parse the vector for the search string and display the result.
Along with the result the below code will also display the time taken and the number of search string found in the document

I bought your program to convert PDF files to WORD doc. files. I did this and when I send the files as an attachment to recipients the recipients say the attachment is blank! I want a refund!!

I bought this Adobe program to convert PDF files to Word doc. files so I could e-mail them as an attachment to people who do not have Adobe Reader. When the people got my e-mail with the attachment and opened it. The attachment was BLANK!! Is there a way to correct this?? or should I just get my money back and cancel this program?

Hi bogy,
How very frustrating! I'm sorry that your email attachment was blank. I'm sure this is a silly question, but did the Word file display as expected on your own machine? If not, then the issue is quite likely with the conversion from PDF to Word (but what you describe isn't a common issue that we're hearing about).
If it looks OK for you, then I suspect the issue lies outside of ExportPDF. If the Word doc is blank when you open it, then please tell me a bit more about the PDF that you're trying to convert and we will take it from there.
Best,
Sara
