Import all HeaderFooter from a document to another

Aspose.Words Product Family
#1

Hello,

I use Aspose.Words 2.4.2 for Java and i would like to import all HeaderFooter from a document to another.

I have writed the code below and :
1. The HeaderFooter in target document are correctly removed
2. The HeaderFooter of the source document are imported because i can see the information if i display the text() value of the “node” variable during the processing

But when i save the document and i open it i didn’t see the imported HeaderFooter…

In the code below :
document is the variable with the target document
headerFooterSourceDocument is the variable with the source document

Code:
Section section = headerFooterSourceDocument.getFirstSection();
int importFormatMode = (keepSourceFormat) ? ImportFormatMode.KEEP_SOURCE_FORMATTING
: ImportFormatMode.USE_DESTINATION_STYLES;
// Remove all HeaderFooter of the target document for each
// Section
for (int s = 0; s < document.getSections().getCount(); s++) {
if (document.getSections().get(s).getHeadersFooters() != null) {
while (document.getSections().get(s).getHeadersFooters().getCount() != 0) {
document.getFirstSection().getHeadersFooters().removeAt(0);
}
}
}
// Add content to the document (Import all HeaderFooter)
for (int i = 0; i < section.getHeadersFooters().getCount(); i++) {
// Import HeaderFooter
Node node = document.importNode(section.getHeadersFooters().get(i), true, importFormatMode);
// Insert header footer into the first section of
// document
document.getFirstSection().getHeadersFooters().add(node);
}

My code seems to be correct but i didn’t understand where is my error…

I have put in attachment the source and target documents in a zip file.

Thanks in advance.

Hi

<?xml:namespace prefix = o ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:office" />

Thanks for your inquiry. Please try using the following code:

Section section = headerFooterSourceDocument.getFirstSection();

int importFormatMode = (keepSourceFormat) ? ImportFormatMode.KEEP_SOURCE_FORMATTING

: ImportFormatMode.USE_DESTINATION_STYLES;

// Remove all HeaderFooter of the target document for each

// Section

for (int s = 0; s < document.getSections().getCount(); s++)

{

if (document.getSections().get(s).getHeadersFooters() != null)

{

while (document.getSections().get(s).getHeadersFooters().getCount() != 0)

{

document.getFirstSection().getHeadersFooters().removeAt(0);

}

}

}

document.getFirstSection().getPageSetup().setDifferentFirstPageHeaderFooter(section.getPageSetup().getDifferentFirstPageHeaderFooter());

document.getFirstSection().getPageSetup().setOddAndEvenPagesHeaderFooter(section.getPageSetup().getOddAndEvenPagesHeaderFooter());

// Add content to the document (Import all HeaderFooter)

for (int i = 0; i < section.getHeadersFooters().getCount(); i++)

{

// Import HeaderFooter

Node node = document.importNode(section.getHeadersFooters().get(i), true, importFormatMode);

// Insert header footer into the first section of

// document

document.getFirstSection().getHeadersFooters().add(node);

}

Hope this helps.

Best regards.
