Accept revisions issue

Aspose.Words Product Family
#1

Hi,
Aspose.Words for Java (tested v15.3.0.0) does not correctly accept revisions.
This test file contains some text followed by a paragraph which has been tracked as deleted.
When accepting all track changes with Ms Word (v2010) the text remains.
However Aspose removes text and paragraph.

Document doc = new Document("test.rtf");
doc.acceptAllRevisions();
System.out.println(doc.getText().length()); // Returns 0

Hi Romain,

Thanks for your inquiry. I have tested the scenario and have managed to reproduce the same issue at my side. For the sake of correction, I have logged this problem in our issue tracking system as WORDSNET-11785. I have linked this forum thread to the same issue and you will be notified via this forum thread once this issue is resolved.

We apologize for your inconvenience.

Hi Romain,

Can you please provide us the code that was used to generate the test.rtf shared in the first post of this thread?

How to create a similar test file:

  1. create new document in Ms Word
  2. type “test”
  3. press ’return’
  4. activate track changes
  5. press ‘backspace’
  6. press ‘delete’
  7. save as rtf
  8. Run this code:
Document doc = new Document("test.rtf");
doc.getFirstSection().getBody().getParagraphs().get(1).remove();
doc.save("test.rtf");

In this case, Ms Word keeps the text “test”, whereas Aspose Words removes it when accepting all track changes (doc.acceptAllRevisions();).
