Is there any way to import word document and process like that above?
I have searched about this, and found out 'Jakarta POI' can access to word document but with many restrictions. (I heard it doesn't support word version 2003 and 97)
Can any one please answer this?
Thankx

I'm not really sure that java is the best language to use for this particular project. I haven't looked into writing a standalone application to do this sort of thing, but Microsoft Word has a built in VB editor that allows you to write scripts that will do this very simply, using Word's Document Object Model.
I would imagine the same sort of the thing could be done from a Stand-alone aplication as well, but you might need some libraries for reading the document and obtaining the object with the same model. I would look into Microsoft's .net solutions for this one. You might even be able to work out a solution in C++, C#, or even J# (which I understand is "similar" to java), if you don't know visual basic.
It is possible that there is a library out there that will read a Word Document, and create the appropriate Java object with the same object model, but I don't know where it can be found.
Anyway, if the option is available to you, take a look at Microsoft's .Net. You'll probably have more luck that way. Good Luck!

When I download Microsoft word documents (if have word 2007), I have somehow changed the settings and it downloads them in wordpad, and the format is very bad and I can't read a lot of the document. How do I change the default setting back to using Microsoft Word 2007 to open these documents?
== This happened ==
Every time Firefox opened
== about a few weeks ago - I had tried to open some docuuments saved on a mac, my PC (which runs Windows 7), used word pad to open these, and this seems to have changed the default settings somehow.

HOW TO OPEN WORD DOCUMENT FROM JAVA???

hi everyone! Can you please help me to come with this problem? Let me to set my main target I want to achieve:
1) In my program user should first press a button;
2) Then already created Word Document should be opened (I DO NOT NEED to open that Word Document in Java or something like JField). Just simply it should be opened as a Microsoft Word Document.
I DO NEED YOUR HELP! PLEASE HELP ME....!

Running cmd using the exec is also a windows only solution, there is no "more" or "less" it that solution compared to the rundll.
Since word is a windows format its pretty obvious that the application is ran under windows platform.
If you are running on a different platform (maybe using open office you can open word documents, i'm not sure) you might want to use the JDIC library (https://jdic.dev.java.net/) which enables you to open/edit/browse such files using the default viewer/editor/browser of the system you are working on.
Look at the org.jdesktop.jdic.desktop.Desktop object for these methods.
You can also find the Desktop object in J2SE6 but its still in beta.

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!

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. : )

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,
Patri

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.
