Hi,

Thanks for your inquiry. You need to use MoveToBookmark() method to move cursor to desired bookmark and then InsertHtml() method for inserting html. Please refer to the following articles for further details. Hopefully it will serve the purpose.

Hi Sreejesh,

Thanks for your inquiry.

The Bookmark.Text property gets the text
enclosed in the bookmark without formatting. If you want to get the
formatted text inside a bookmark, please extract the content from a bookmark using the code shared in following documentation link:
https://docs.aspose.com/words/net/how-to-extract-selected-content-between-nodes-in-a-document/

In your case, you need to use MoveToBookmark method to move cursor to desired bookmark and use InsertDocument method to insert the extracted contents to bookmark. Please check the code of InsertDocument method from here:
https://docs.aspose.com/words/java/insert-and-append-documents/

Hope this answers your query. Please let us know if you have any more queries.

Hi,

I am trying to insert HTML into bookmark but I am seeing it is being inserted all time outside of the bookmark. I am using following code

// Retrieve the bookmark.
var bookmark = wordDoc.Range.Bookmarks[bookmarkName];
if (!bookmark.IsNull())
{
    // Create a document builder so we can insert the new value as html.
    // wordDoc.Range.Bookmarks[bookmark.Name].Text = string.Empty;
    var documentBuilder = new Aspose.Words.DocumentBuilder(wordDoc);
    documentBuilder.MoveToBookmark(bookmark.Name, true, false);
    documentBuilder.Writeln(bookmarkValue);
}

I am using Alfresco version v4.0.30319. I am attaching word document where you can see result.

Please guide me in this issue.

Regards,

Robert

Moreover, please manually create your expected Word document using Microsoft Word and attach it here for our reference. We will investigate as to how you want your final Word output be generated like. We will then provide you more information on this along with code.

We have used following code example to test your scenario and have not found any issue with output document.

Document wordDoc = new Document(MyDir + "TestResearch_T_F.docx");
var bookmark = wordDoc.Range.Bookmarks["bmkDocAuthor"];
wordDoc.Range.Bookmarks[bookmark.Name].Text = string.Empty;
var documentBuilder = new Aspose.Words.DocumentBuilder(wordDoc);
documentBuilder.MoveToBookmark(bookmark.Name, true, false);
documentBuilder.InsertHtml("**new text**");
wordDoc.Save(MyDir + "Out.docx");

Hi,

Please find expected word document and sample template as an attachment. My issue is when I insert html in bookmark it alltime display outside of the bookmark. I have used all option combination for “InsertHtml” method.As html is inserting outside of bookmark so user is not able to edit it. I given option that text inside the bookmark user can edit it.

I created bookmark with protection with paragraph so user can not delete bookmark but can edit text between bookmark. In my sample template I given two bookmark “bmkSupportingAnalysis” this bookmark is protected and user cannot delete it.

Other bookmark “bmkTest” is unprotected and so user can delete it. Template is protected and password is “test”.

Please provide solution for this, that after inserting html user should be able to edit it.

Regards,

Robert

Hi Robert,

Thanks for sharing the detail. In your case, we suggest you please insert the html contents between EditableRangeStart and EditableRangeEnd. Please check following code example for your kind reference. Hope this helps you.

Document wordDoc = new Document(MyDir + "SampleTemplate.docx");
var bookmark = wordDoc.Range.Bookmarks["bmkSupportingAnalysis"];
var documentBuilder = new Aspose.Words.DocumentBuilder(wordDoc);
if (bookmark.BookmarkStart.NextSibling.NodeType == NodeType.EditableRangeStart)
{
    EditableRangeStart ers = (EditableRangeStart)bookmark.BookmarkStart.NextSibling;
    documentBuilder.MoveTo(ers.EditableRange.EditableRangeEnd);
}
documentBuilder.InsertHtml("**new text**");
wordDoc.Save(MyDir + "Out.docx");
