Saving document to docx (Office 2010)

Aspose.Words Product Family
1

Good Morning,

I’m currently trying to create a document which is saved in the real 2010-docx format. I’m building my document and the save it using SaveFormat.DOCX.
When opening that in Word 2010 it always says that this document is opened in Compatibility Mode. When trying to save such a document word always says do you want to check compatibility…

In the forums I’ve read the Aspose provides real Office 2010 support. What do I have to do to save my document as a 2010 docx file?

Best Regards

Hello

Thanks for your inquiry. You should just set OoxmlCompliance option. Please try using the following code:

Document doc = new Document("C:\\Temp\\in.docx");
OoxmlSaveOptions opt = new OoxmlSaveOptions(SaveFormat.DOCX);
opt.setCompliance(OoxmlCompliance.ISO_29500_2008_TRANSITIONAL);
doc.save("C:\\Temp\\out.docx", opt);

Best regards,

Hey Andrey,

thanks for your fast response.
I’ve tried that in my code but now the documents I generate can’t be opened by Word.

I’ve attatched a document fou you to see what the problem is.

Hello Jan,
Thanks for your request. Unfortunately the issue is still unresolved. I added your request to my monthly report, so its priority will be increased. I will keep you informed on any developments regarding this issue.
As a temporary workaround you can try using the following code:

Document doc = new Document("C:\\Temp\\allgemein_Vorlage.docx");
// Convert DOCX to DOC to fix the problem.
ByteArrayOutputStream byteStream = new ByteArrayOutputStream();
doc.save(byteStream, SaveFormat.DOC);
InputStream inputStream = new ByteArrayInputStream(byteStream.toByteArray());
// Create com.aspose.words.Document from InputStream.
doc = new Document(inputStream);
OoxmlSaveOptions opt = new OoxmlSaveOptions(SaveFormat.DOCX);
opt.setCompliance(OoxmlCompliance.ISO_29500_2008_TRANSITIONAL);
doc.save("C:\\Temp\\out.docx", opt);

Best regards,

Hey Andrey,

first of all thanks for taking this issue serious.
I tried the code you provided and there are two things to mention.
First of all:
The file generated isn’t broken anymore!
Word still says “Compatibility mode”. So it looks like that isn’t a “real” Office 2010 file…any idea what goes wrong or why word still says “Compatibility Mode”?

Best Regards,
Jan

Hello guys,

I’m now able to generate and open files which are generated using ISO_29500_2008_TRANSITIONAL but Word 2010 still says “Compatibility Mode”!

What’s going wrong there?

Best regards!

I really need a fix or workaround for this one. The day our customer migrates to Office 2010 is coming closer and I’m still unable to generate the documents correctly.

Thanks for your help.
