Printing Microsoft word documents

Does anybody know how to print MS Word documents in Java.
I have been able to print normal txt files using Java Print Service in J2SE1.4.

The short answer is that the Java Print Service that comes with J2SE 1.4 does not contain support for MS-Word documents. I would be surprised if Sun ever offered support for anything from Microsoft. There is support for RTF some support in the J2SE for RTF (take a look at JEditorPane), which is a Microsoft standard, but that's about it. You might want to take a look at the POI project at http://jakarta.apache.org/poi/index.html There is support for working with a few Microsoft Office file formats there.

  • HP Laserjet PRO MFP125nw doesn't print Microsoft Word documents from PC

    Hello.
    I've recently bought a brand new HP Laserjet PRO MFP125nw printer. The functions seemed really nice and the price was acceptable. I've brought it to my home, installed it following the manual, connected it to Wi-Fi etc. It generally works fairly well. PDF files are printed perfectly well, the scaning function works and it's generally a nice piece of technology.
    The only problem is that it just doesn't want to pring Microsoft Word documents from my PC. It prints it perfectly when I try to print .docx from my smartphone using the app, but it doesn't respond when I try doing it from the PC.
    My Office version is 2007 Enterprise. Do you have any idea what I should do?
    Thank you in advance

    Thank you a lot for a quick reply, Cbert. It's fantastic to see HP actually reading their forums and trying to help!
    I'll try plugging it into the wall and directly to the PC with a USB, we'll see if it works out.
    About Word, i've already tried reinstalling Word, even installed a 2003 version to check if it works with that. Well it doesn't. And as i've written before, I tried turning some .docx files to .pdf using a converter, but it still doesn't print them.
    Anyway, i'll try the first two points and keep you updated, thanks!

  • Convert 1 single microsoft word document with section breaks to multiple pdf files

    I am a windows 7 users. I have a single microsoft word document which contain 1500 pages. These 1500 pages are seperated by sections breaks in the microsoft word. I am trying to convert this word document to multiple pdf files seperated by the section breaks in the Microsoft word. How can I convert the single microsoft word document with section breaks to multiple seperate pdf files?

    Acrobat (Adobe PDF Printer and PDFMaker ) doesn't recognize the Section breaks.  It never has as far as I am aware.  The easiest thing to do is to manually break up a copy of the MS Word Document into the Sections you need and then create the PDFs from those MS Word documents.

  • Convert Adobe Form (with data) to Microsoft Word Document

    Adobe Acrobat 8.0 Standard
    Windows XP Professional SP2
    Microsoft Word 2003 SP3
    I am attempting to convert an Adobe PDF Form (with data included) to a Microsoft Word document.
    When I use the menu to attempt this, I get a Word document containing only the form fields.
    I want to be able to grab all the text from the document, as these forms were used to fill in information for Job Descriptions, and I want to submit the text to job boards (without having to retype anything).
    What are my options for obtaining this information?

    Bill:
    Thank you for all of your help. I do not have the program in front of me, so I don't have a means of independently verifying this, until I go see the user tomorrow when he returns to the office ...
    Just to confirm, a fillable PDF is different from a standard PDF, as it stores the form fields in a special way, likewise, the data is stored in a special way. This is actually a quite useful feature, for compiling data, if you use the form multiple times.
    A standard export of a fillable PDF exports only the fields.
    To get the data, I would have to choose to save form data.
    To get the fields and the data, I have to print it using a PDF printer to create a new PDF document. Once I create this new PDF document, I can then export to Word as desired.
    If I want ONLY form fields: (one-step process)
    Export > Microsoft Word > %filename%.DOC
    If I want ONLY form data:(one-step process)
    File > Save FORM DATA > FDF file format > %filename%.FDF
    If I want both the form and the data: (two-step process)
    File > Print to PDF > Save as %filename%.PDF
    Open %filename%.PDF > Export > Word Document
    Is this the process? Pardon my confusion, but I am a newbie, and I do not have the program to test with.
    Thanks for your help, kind sir.

  • Unable to see all slides in published Microsoft word Document

  • Printing multipage Word documents

    I am trying to automate printing multipage Word documents.  If more than 1 page, I wish to automate the duplex function.  I can't seem to get a script that works.  If anyone has one and wishes to share or could direct me, I will be grateful.  Thanks.

  • Convert PDF to Microsoft Word document

    Hi,
    After converting PDF file using Adobe Acrobat to Microsoft
    Word document, the converted file is changed into a picture format.
    How can I convert a PDF file so that I can edit it?
    Thank you.

  • Microsoft Word document to PDF file

    When converting a saved Microsoft Word document into a PDF file, the image changes...... Figures that were saved in the original document are then either lost or hidden/partly obscured by other items.
    Any help greatly appreciated

    Nigel,
    This questions belongs in the Acrobat forum. It is not a pdf
    specification issue. The short answer is that when you change printers
    Word reflows the document. Create the Word document with the Acrobat PDF
    printer instance as the default printer driver. That should take care of
    your problem. If it does not please repost your question in the Acrobat
    forum.

  • How can I change a Microsoft Word document file into a picture file?

    How can I change a Microsoft Word document file into a picture or jpeg file? I am wanting to make the image I created my background on my macbook pro.

    After I had the document image the way I wanted it, I saved it as a web page and went from there. Below are the steps starting after I did the "save as" option in Word:
    1) Select "Save As Web Page". I changed the location from documents to pictures when the window came up to save it as a web page.
    2) Go to "Finder" on you main screen, or if it's on your main toolbar at the bottom.
    3) Click on the "Pictures" tab and find the file you just re-saved as a web page. (I included "web page" or something similar in the new title so I could easily find the correct file I was looking for)
    4) Open the correct file and then "right click" on the actual image. (Use 2 fingers to do so on a Mac)
    5) Select 'Use Image As Desktop Picture", and voilà! The personally created image, or whatever it is that you wanted, is now your background.
    **One problem I encountered while doing this is that the image would show up like it was right-aligned in relation to the whole screen. The only way I could figure how to fix this was to go back to the very original document in Word, (the one before it was saved as a web page), and move everything over to the left.
    I hope this helps someone else who was as frustrated as I was with something that I thought would have been very simple to do! If you have any tips or suggestions of your own, please feel free to share. : )

    So I've been trying to open some Microsoft Word Documents and it says it can't be opened because PowerPC applications are no longer supported. What do I do about this?

    Workarounds:
    1.  Restore the OS X that you formerly used to run Word 2004;
    2.  Partition your hard drive or attach an external hard drive and install Snow Leopard (and Rosetta) so that you can "dual-boot" into Microsoft Word 2004;
    3.  Upgrade to Word 2011 or use an alternative program; or
    4.  The solution I use: Install Snow Leopard (and Rosetta) into Parallels 7 or 8:

  • Integrating Microsoft Word documents with ADF BC and JClient technologies

    Hi,
    We are developing a Police Management System in JAVA with the Oracle Jdeveloper 10.1.2.0.0. We are using for the access to the data, in the businesses tier, the ADF Business Component Technology and for the User Interface, in the client tier, the JClient for ADF Technology. The used Database is Oracle Enterprise Edition 10.1.0.3.0. with the intermedia option.
    We were looking for ways to upload and insert Microsoft Word Documents into a view object using JClient on the client tier. We have found the following options:
    1) Oracle Intermedia database datatype ORDSYS.ORDDOC and their corresponding ADF Business Compomnents domains -> The problem is using Jclient on the client tier. In Oracle JDeveloper 10g, developers will not be able to create new applications using JClient interMedia controls. JUImage (limited to images only) is the JClient control available to access multimedia in the database.
    2) Oracle COM Automation Feature -> We were studying the possibility to built a solution with Oracle and Microsoft Word using Oracle COM Automation Feature for Java. The problem is Oracle COM Automation Feature requires Windows NT, Windows XP, Windows 2000, or Windows Server 2003. We are using a database on linux, therefore this option is not valid.
    3) CLOBs in database and theirs corresponding ADF Business Components domains -> But I don't know how to use ADF BC objects in JClient tier.
    Can someone please help?
    Thanks,
    Patri

    Hi,
    I have worked with BLOBS or CLOBS and their corresponidng ADF Business Components domains, but I don't know how to use ADF BC objects in JClient tier.
    To sum up, I want to upload, insert and view microsoft word documents by using a JClient application using ADF/BC4J components.
    Thanks,

  • CAN'T OPEN MICROSOFT WORD DOCUMENTS AFTER DOWNLOADING MAVERICK

    I downloaded Maverick OS X 10.9.3 and now I can't open my Microsoft Word documents!  HELP!!
    The message I receive when trying to open a document read:  You can't open the application "Microsoft Word" because PowerPC applications are no longer supported.
    I wish I knew this before I upgraded to Maverick.  It happened to my iphotos as well but after purchasing new software for iphoto, I have been able to retrieve my photos. 
    I hope I don't have to do the same for my documents.
    Thanks

    I wouldn't recommend buying the boxed version of Office 2011. A new version of Office is coming out in a few months and you'll be stuck with old software. The next version of Office will be subscription only. You can buy Office 365 now and it will automatically upgrade you for free when the new version comes out. This is a monthly fee.
    If paying monthly is not an option for you, you can also look at buying Office 2008. While it's End of Life software like Office 2004 (this means it will receive no further updates) it will run in Mavericks with only a few minor glitches. You might be able to buy Office 2008 at a more reasonable price. Otherwise I would like at LibreOffice or OpenOffice that Esquared mentioned above.
