Carriage returns at beginning of runs

Aspose.Words Product Family

Hi there

I’m using Aspose.Words to parse a .doc file. Strangely, in the table of contents on page 5, each run of text begins with a carriage return - I thought these characters should end a paragraph, not start it. I’m wondering is it a problem with the program that created the document initially, or maybe it is Aspose.Words not processing it correctly.

I’ve attached the file for your own testing purposes if you wish.

Thanks

Eric

Hi

Thanks for your request. You are right, “\r” in MS Word documents is paragraph break. However, sometimes in MS Word documents \r can be just a character within a Run, as in your case. MS Word still considers such characters as paragraph breaks and shows them appropriately. You can use DocumentExplorer (Aspose.Words demo) to check structure of your document.
Best regards.
