Greetings,
we have a word document (see attachment) in which a link is given. The link consists of two "parts" separated by a colon. The strange behaviour is, that in the generated html only the first part is a link in html and the second part is underlined but no link. The behaviour is reproducible.
I can't see anything special about the link so I don't know what could trigger this.
Your help is appreciated.. thanks in advance
Helo Awais,
thanks for your fast reply and suggestion.
But I'm afraid your suggestion did not work for me. I changed the library from version 10.0.0.0 to 10.5.0.0 as suggested and the result was about the same.
The generated html for version 10.0.0.0 is:
Evaluation Only. Created with Aspose.Words. Copyright 2003-2010 Aspose Pty Ltd.
https://xxxSecretLinkInDocumentxxx.pdf"><span style="font-family: arial; color: #0000ff; font-size: 10pt; text-decoration: underline">Organisation: Test Test Test
The generated html for version 10.5.0.0 is:
https://xxxSecretLinkInDocumentxxx.pdf"><span style="font-family: arial; color: #0000ff; font-size: 10pt; text-decoration: underline">Organisation: Test Test Test
The code I use is just simple:
public string GetHtmlFromWord(Stream stream)
{
// Load the entire document into memory.
Document doc = null;
try
{
doc = new Document(stream);
}
catch (UnsupportedFileFormatException uffe)
{
throw new UnsupportedFileFormatSDLException();
}
// You can close the stream now, it is no longer needed because the document is in memory.
stream.Close();
// Create a new memory stream.
MemoryStream outStream = new MemoryStream();
// Set an option to export form fields as plain text, not as HTML input elements.
HtmlSaveOptions options = new HtmlSaveOptions(SaveFormat.Html);
// Save the document to stream.
doc.Save(outStream, options);
// Convert the document to byte form and in text-string
byte[] docBytes = outStream.ToArray();
System.Text.UTF8Encoding enc = new System.Text.UTF8Encoding();
string html = enc.GetString(docBytes);
return html;
}
Do you have any more suggestions?
Thanks and Greetings

Hi,
Hi Awais,
using your TwoLinks_Input.doc I also get a link for the whole line, as in your out.html.
I dont' know what our customers did to generate such a word-file, which makes the problem.. I tried to generate a new Word-File to produce the Problem but failed with that.
The Problem only occurs with the delivered file Anschreiben_Test.doc.
When downloading the latest Aspose.Words Version (Aspose.Words_DLLS_10500.zip) from your homepage I am using the dll and xml from the folder net3.5_ClientProfile.. perhaps you could reproduce the behaviour with this dll?
Greetings
Greetings Awais,
I tried to reproduce the Issue with a Console-Testprogram and failed, just as you mentioned.
So I could backtrack the cause in the type of stream I used.We are using Aspose in a WebApplication and got an InputStream which was converted to a MemoryStream by the following code:
using (MemoryStream fileMStream = new MemoryStream()) {
byte[] buffer = new byte[2048];
int readBytes = 0;
do {
readBytes = Request.Files[0].InputStream.Read(buffer, 0, buffer.Length);
fileMStream.Write(buffer, 0, readBytes);
} while (readBytes != 0);using (MemoryStream fileMStream = new MemoryStream()) {
After passing the InputStream directly (Request.Files[0].InputStream) the Problem did not occur (can't remember, why we originally implemented the faulty conversion to MemoryStream).
So the Issue is resolved. Thanks for your good support. Hope this also could help someone other having similar Problems.

Hello again Awais,
Hi Rolf,
Thank you for additional information. However, we have no idea how we can reproduce this problem. Maybe the problem occurs because the links consist of few runs. If so, then calling JoinRunsWithSameFormatting must help you to resolve the problem:
Please let me know if this helps.
Best regards,
Hi Alexey,
Hi Rolf,
Thank you for additional information. Also, the difference can be in culture used on the server and your sides. Could you please check culture used on the server side. Maybe this will help us to reproduce the problem.
Console.WriteLine(Thread.CurrentThread.CurrentCulture);
Best regards,
Hi Alexey,
Hi Rolf,
Thank you for additional information. Unfortunately, I still have no luck. The issue is non-reproducible on my side and unfortunately, I have no clue what can cause this issue on your side.
Best regards,
Hi Alexey,
thanks for your response.
What are the next steps that you suggest to satisfy our customer?
Greetings
Rolf
Hi Rolf,
Thanks for your request. But unfortunately, I do not know what can cause the problem. I tried different ways and still cannot reproduce the problem.
By the way, when you convert the document to other formats, does the hyperlink look correct?
Best regards,
Helo Alexey,
Hi Rolf,
Thank you for additional information. Unfortunately, I do not have any more ideas. I think the problem might occur because the document is pre-processed or post-processed by some other tool. Could you please one more time make sure your customer do not pre-process or post-process the document before/after converting it to HTML using Aspose.Words.
Best regards,
Hi Alexey,
thanks for your patience.
I tested the Issue with a Test-Method (code following and as attachment) which loads Data from the local filesystem and writes back to the file system to exclude any pre- or post-processing.
public ActionResult TestLoadLocalWordText()
{
string tempFilepath = HttpRuntime.AppDomainAppPath + "/Ressources/Anschreiben_Test2.doc";
bool embeddedObjectFound = false;
string html = BusinessLayerFactory.CreateUtilityServices().GetHtmlFromWord(tempFilepath, out embeddedObjectFound);
string guid = Guid.NewGuid().ToString();
using (StreamWriter file = new System.IO.StreamWriter(HttpRuntime.AppDomainAppPath + "/Ressources/" + guid + ".log"))
{
file.Write(html);
}
return Json(new ResultContainer { Success = true, ErrorMessage = null }, "text/html");
}
Hope you can see something, which could cause the problems.
Greetings
Rolf
Hi
Thank you for additional information. As I can see your code looks correct. But I would check the produced HTML string before and after sending it as Json string. Maybe the problem occurs when Json response is decoded on the client side.
Best regards,
