Aspose.Words.Viewer ignores newlines

Hi Aspose-Team,

I have an Word-document. In this document there are some newlines. But when I try to get the pages as an bitmap, all newlines (carriage return) are ignored.

My code to get the word document as a bitmap-object (“doc” is type of Aspose.Words.Document)

AsposeViewer.DocumentRenderer l_Renderer = new Aspose.Words.Viewer.DocumentRenderer(doc);
AsposeViewer.PageNavigator l_Nav = new Aspose.Words.Viewer.PageNavigator(l_Renderer);
Bitmap l_DocumentBitmap = l_Nav.CurrentPage;

I hope you can help me quickly. Thank you! I attached two screenshot. One from MS Word and the other from Aspose.Words.Viewer generated Bitmap (ignore the red lines - I add them after generating the bitmap).

When do you think Aspose.Words.Viewer will loose its beta-status? I think this feature should have top priority. Please let me know your timetable for this feature.
Actually I always need to convert a word document into a pdf to offer a preview of this word document. This lasts too long. In my application I offer a preview of all mail merged word documents. When a user clicks on another address I mail merge the word document with the selected address and display it in a preview-panel. Every click lasts about 1-2 sec. (mail merge + converting to pdf + display pdf). The timespan is too long. With Aspose.Words.Viewer I can display a preview of the merged word document directly. And this lasts not half a second. So this feature is very important for our application.

Yes, you are absolutely right. We consider Aspose.Words rendering engine as a top priority for us now. We hope to be able to release it in Q4 2007. But no exact timeline, sorry.
