Table in PDF does not match document

Aspose.Words Product Family
1

I am using the evaluation version of Aspose.Words to convert a .docx file to .pdf. Most of the document looks very good but it seems there are some differences when using a table. In the attached example you can see there are some differences in the table starting on page 2…



1. The header is not repeating on a page break like it is in the .docx file.

2. The word “Hours” in the header is being crunched and split into 2 rows

3. The spacing between the rows of the table is not quite right causing a large gap at the bottom of the page



Is there any option or setting that I can use to get tables like this as close as possible to the original document? Below is my code I am using to convert…



import com.aspose.words.*;

import java.util.Date;

import java.util.concurrent.TimeUnit;



class WordToPDF {

public static void main(String[] args) {

String WordDir;

Date start = new Date();



WordDir = “C:\Users\jgodsey\Documents\WordToPDF\”;



System.out.println(“Converting…”);



try {

Document wordDoc = new Document(WordDir + “invoice.docx”);



PdfSaveOptions options = new PdfSaveOptions();



options.setJpegQuality(100);



wordDoc.save(WordDir + “test.pdf”, options);

} catch (Exception e)

{

System.err.println("Caught IOException: " + e.getMessage());

}



Date end = new Date();

System.out.println(“Done!”);

System.out.println("Total time in seconds: " + TimeUnit.MILLISECONDS.toSeconds(end.getTime() - start.getTime()));

}

}



Thanks for any help,



Jeff

Hi Jeff,

Thanks for your inquiry.
I have tested the scenario and have managed to reproduce the same
issues at my side. For the sake of correction, I have logged these
problems in our issue tracking system as follow:

WORDSNET-12443 : Table header does not render correctly in output Pdf (The word “Hours” in the header is being crunched and split into 2 rows)
WORDSNET-12442 : Table header does not repeat in output Pdf(The header is not repeating on a page break like it is in the .docx file)

I
have linked this forum thread to the same issues and you will be

I have not found the 3rd issue while using latest version of Aspose.Words for Java 15.8.0. I have attached the output document with this post for your kind reference. I suggest you please request a free 30-day trial license from here:

I appreciate the help on the first two issues and look forward to them being resolved.

On the third issue regarding the table spacing, I disagree that it isn’t a problem. If you look at the Word document there is a small amount of padding between the rows in the table, this is not coming across in the PDF. In your non-evaluation version more the data is displaying, but it would still be preferable to have the original padding intact. A small thing but it would go a long way for our clients.

Thanks,

Jeff
