Hi,
I have a couple of questions
1) Whether PDF to Doc conversion is supposed.
2) Whether Inserting PDF document to a word doc is supported

Hi,

I’m sorry to inform you that PDF to DOC conversion is currently not supported in Aspose.Pdf.Kit for Java. However, we have already logged a new feature request as PDFKITJAVA-14495 in our issue tracking system. You’ll be updated via this forum thread once it is supported.

Regarding your second requirement, could you please elaborate whether you want to add the PDF as an attachment to the DOC file or insert it as an embedded resource? Please share the details so we could guide you accordingly.

Regards,

Hi,
Thank you for quick response. To clarify, we basically look for a library from aspose.kit.pdf to basically embed the content of a pdf into the word doc (Not just attaching the file)
thanks

Hi

Thanks for your request. Once you are able to convert PDF documents to Word documents, you will be able to insert these Word documents into another Word documents using Aspose.Words:

Currently, the only option in insert content from PDF to Word is converting your PDF document to images and inserting these images into Word documents using Apsose.Words.

Best regards,

Hi,

“…Once you are able to convert PDF
documents to Word documents, you will be able to insert these Word documents
into another Word documents using Aspose.Words…” I guess this is not an option because Aspose.kit.pdf does not support PDF to Word conversion at all. I guess not until this feature is available.
Is there any plan to provide a feature that directly embed the content of PDF into the Word.
On the other hand, a question regard to the PDF to Image path. Given this scenario, I have a PDF that basically contains images. Questions are

  1. Would it take a snapshot of the entire PDF page, including margin settings and save it as an image?

  2. In my case, my PDF contains a number of images with high resolutions. When converting PDF to Image, would the image resolutions be preserved?

  3. I downloaded a trial version aspose.kit.pdf (My company already purchase the Aspose.Words), and I noticed that it uses the Sun’s JAI jar underneath. What is the list of the JAI’s compatible level for particular version - especially for the trial version that I downloaded from this link
    http://www.softpedia.com/get/Programming/Components-Libraries/Aspose-PDF-Kit-for-Java.shtml

  4. Could you also point me to the cost of this pdf kit.
    Thanks

Hi

Thanks for your request. Yes, I meant exactly this. That currently there is no way, but when Aspose.Pdf provides such feature, it will become possible.

1. Yes, Aspose.Pdf.Kit takes snapshot of whole page including margins:

2. Unfortunately, it is difficult to answer this question without your documents. You can download a trial version of Aspose.Pdf.Kit and try converting your PDF document to images and see how it goes with your documents.

3. My colleague from Aspose.Pdf.kit team will answer this question.

4. You can get pricing information here:
