Header appear after appending document

Hy,

I have a problem when appending 2 documents. A document with no header will get one after appending, the header added is empty but that still create a margin at the top of the printed final document.



Here is my method :

public static Document appendDoc(Session session, com.aspose.words.Document dstDoc, com.aspose.words.Document srcDoc, boolean rebuildPagination) {

try{

if (dstDoc == null) {

dstDoc = srcDoc;

replaceNumpageByNumpageinsection(session, dstDoc);

}else{

if (rebuildPagination) {



for (int i = 0; i
Section srcSection = srcDoc.getSections().get(i);

srcSection.getPageSetup().setSectionStart(SectionStart.NEW_PAGE);



Section dstSection = (Section) dstDoc.importNode(srcSection, true, ImportFormatMode.USE_DESTINATION_STYLES);

dstDoc.appendChild(dstSection);



dstSection.getHeadersFooters().linkToPrevious(false);

dstSection.getPageSetup().setPageStartingNumber(1);



dstSection.getPageSetup().setRestartPageNumbering(true);



HeaderFooter footer = dstSection.getHeadersFooters().getByHeaderFooterType(HeaderFooterType.FOOTER_PRIMARY);

if (footer != null) {

footer.isLinkedToPrevious(false);

}

HeaderFooter header = dstSection.getHeadersFooters().getByHeaderFooterType(HeaderFooterType.HEADER_PRIMARY);

if (header != null) {

header.isLinkedToPrevious(false);

}



for (Object p : dstSection.getChildNodes(NodeType.PARAGRAPH, true)) {

((Paragraph) p).getParagraphFormat().setWidowControl(true);

}

}

} else {

appendDoc(session,dstDoc, srcDoc);

}

}

}catch(Exception ex){

logger.logException(session, Lab4Level.ERROR, “appendDoc”, ex);

}

return dstDoc;

}



Have you got any clue how to solve my problem ?



I join 2 docs, the first one has no header.



Thanks a lot,
