Convert a docx into html with linked pictures

Aspose.Words Product Family

with version 14.5 it is not possible anymore to save a docx with linked pictures as html and the images pointing to the link defined in docx.

I have in my docx a picture link to a website and the following code:

Aspose.Words.Document aspDoc = new Aspose.Words.Document(@"C:\Users\xxx\Documents\image.docx");

Aspose.Words.Saving.HtmlSaveOptions docsaveoptions = new Aspose.Words.Saving.HtmlSaveOptions(Aspose.Words.SaveFormat.Html);

docsaveoptions.ExportImagesAsBase64 = false;

aspDoc.Save(@"C:\Users\xxx\Documents\image.html", docsaveoptions);

In version 14.4 and previous I got a html as result which contained the images as link and now with 14.5 and 14.6 aspose saves the images locally and references it with the local pictures.

Do you know this bug already ? Is there a fix available?

The base642.docx is the file with the linked images.
You will see the result as html with the pictures extracted by the aspose component.

Hi Christian,

Thanks for being patient. Please upgrade to the latest version of Aspose.Words for .NET i.e. 15.7.0 from the following code:
https://releases.aspose.com/words/net

You should set HtmlSaveOptions.ExportOriginalUrlForLinkedImages property to true for exporting original URLs to HTML as follows:

Document doc = new Document(MyDir + @"base642.docx");
HtmlSaveOptions options = new HtmlSaveOptions(SaveFormat.Html);
options.ExportImagesAsBase64 = false;
options.PrettyFormat = true;
options.ExportOriginalUrlForLinkedImages = true;
doc.Save(MyDir + @"15.7.0.html", options);

I hope, this helps.

Best regards,
