Hello Aspose,

We change the headers in the documents that are uploaded. Because sometime the uploaded document has some weird settings, we try to clear as much formatting as possible.

In the document that’s attached, has some indentation settings that isn’t cleared. Is there something we can add to also clear this ?

Regards,
Inception

Document aAsposeDoc = new Document(lFileName);
for ( Section lSection : aAsposeDoc.getSections() ) {

        lHeaderFooter.remove();

Please set the value of ParagraphFormat.FirstLineIndent property to 0.0 as shown below to get the desired output.

aDocumentBuilder.getParagraphFormat().setFirstLineIndent(0d);
aDocumentBuilder.getParagraphFormat().setRightIndent( 0d );
aDocumentBuilder.getParagraphFormat().setCharacterUnitFirstLineIndent(  0d ); // ParagraphFormat.FirstLineIndent will be updated
aDocumentBuilder.getParagraphFormat().setCharacterUnitLeftIndent( 0d );   // ParagraphFormat.LeftIndent will be updated
aDocumentBuilder.getParagraphFormat().setCharacterUnitRightIndent( 0d );
aDocumentBuilder.getParagraphFormat().setLineUnitBefore( 0d );  // ParagraphFormat.SpaceBefore will be updated
aDocumentBuilder.getParagraphFormat().setLineUnitAfter( 0d );
aDocumentBuilder.write( "TEST LEFT" );
aAsposeDoc.save(MyDir + "21.4.pdf");
