Hi Tahir,

Thanks for your reply.
Attached two pdf files which need to be converted to docx and html files using Aspose PDF Java product.
Aspose2Column.zip (882.5 KB)

Note: The table should be editable table.[Not as image]
The entire output documents(docx/html) should be a 1 column layout.
Can you please convert them and send the java code for docx and html
Regards,

Hi Ali,
Thanks for your response.

I checked the white-paper-c11-737224.pdf. Here are my observations

Docx file

  1. The output docx file has broken images in page number 2 and 9
  2. The output docx file should be single column even though the pdf is 2 column.

Html file

  1. The headers and footer are repeated. The html file should have 1 header and 1 footer
  2. The output html file should be single column even though the pdf is 2 column.

I attached one more file software-system-bulletin.pdf. Can you please recheck all the 3 files. The main points to cover is

  1. Table should be editable table and not an image in docx and html
  2. Images in the docx file should be same as it is in the pdf file
  3. layout should be 1 column in html and docx
  4. Headers and footers should not repeat in the html

Regretfully the tickets are not yet resolved. The implementation of the required features depends upon several internal components of the API and requires more time. For now, the tickets are under feedback status. We will surely inform you as soon as required functionality is implemented. Please spare us some time.

2 posts were split to a new topic: Issues while processing docx files with Aspose.Words for Java

Hello,

I’ve recently purchased Aspose.Words and Aspose.PDF for .Net, and I’m having the same problem with some elements been converted as images in PDF to HTML conversion, most important of them are Tables. I’d like to know if there is some progress on this request. On the blog, all that I can see is that this topic was split on two post, but I can’t find more info. I can see just one link (Issues while processing) docx…) without a solution (as far as I can tell).

Conversion from Docx to HTML works as expected (producing editable tables -Table, TR and TD elements on resulting HTML), but not for PDF to HTML.

In PDF to HTML conversion, Tables are converted as Images, and sometimes these ‘tables’ are merged with other objects in the same image. Our goal is to convert the PDF to insert it as HTML in an WYSIWYG Editor (Kendo), so user can edit the content if needed, and to be as close as the original as posible. Editable Tables is the main concern so far.

Regards
Edgardo
