Hello,

Thank you,

Hi,

Sure.
Component versions:
Aspose.Words for .NET 9.8.0
Aspose.Network for .NET 6.4.0

Here is my code:

/// Default save option is XPS
SaveOptions saveOption = new XpsSaveOptions();

MessageFormat _messageFormat = MessageFormat.Eml;

/// Load Mail document
_message = MailMessage.Load(filePath, _messageFormat);

using(MemoryStream mhtMemoryStream = new MemoryStream())
{
    /// Save as MHT
    _message.Save(mhtMemoryStream, MailMessageSaveType.MHtmlFromat);

    mhtMemoryStream.Position = 0;

    var outFileStream = new MemoryStream();

    /// Load MHT file
    Document document = new Document(mhtMemoryStream);

    /// Accept all revisions in the document.
    document.AcceptAllRevisions();

    /// Convert Document to defined format - ConversionFormat
    document.Save(outFileStream, saveOption);

    return outFileStream;
}

Hello
Thank you for additional information. As you can see, the image inside your document is wider than page. So to fix this problem you should try using the code like the following:

// Default save option is XPS
SaveOptions saveOption = new XpsSaveOptions();
MessageFormat _messageFormat = MessageFormat.Eml;
string filePath = "C:\\Temp\\EML_screenshot.eml";
// Load Mail document
MailMessage _message = MailMessage.Load(filePath, _messageFormat);
using(MemoryStream mhtMemoryStream = new MemoryStream())
{
    // Save as MHT
    _message.Save(mhtMemoryStream, MailMessageSaveType.MHtmlFromat);
    mhtMemoryStream.Position = 0;
    // Load MHT file
    Document document = new Document(mhtMemoryStream);
    document.FirstSection.PageSetup.Orientation = Orientation.Landscape;
    document.FirstSection.PageSetup.PageWidth = document.FirstSection.PageSetup.PageWidth + 600;
    // Accept all revisions in the document.
    document.AcceptAllRevisions();
    // Convert Document to defined format - ConversionFormat
    document.Save("C:\\Temp\\out.xps", saveOption);
}

Best regards,

Thanks for code.

One question.
Is there the way how I can decide when I need to use ether Orientation.Portrait or Orientation.Landscape in runtime?

Thanks,
Taras

Hello
Thanks for your request. There is no direct way to achieve this using Aspose.Words. You should calculate width of all elements on a page and then set page width in order to calculated width. As you understand it is not a trivial task.
