I have a table, but the default internal margin for a textbox (left, right, top, bottom) is too large. How can I set it to all to 0 or smaller. Thanks.

Dear John,

Thanks for considering Aspose.

TextFrame has the properties for margins like

TextFrame.set/getMarginLeft()

TextFrame.set/getMarginRight()

TextFrame.set/getMarginTop()

TextFrame.set/getMarginBottom()

Use them to set the internal margin. Please see code example below in JAVA and also see its source and output presentation.

JAVA

//Read the source presentation
FileInputStream fin = new FileInputStream("c:/source.ppt");
Presentation srcPres = new Presentation(fin);

//Get the first slide
Slide sld = srcPres.getSlideByPosition(1);

//Get the table
Table tbl = (Table) sld.getShapes().get(0);

//Iterate all the cells and set the left margin to 0
for (int i = 0; i < tbl.getColumnsNumber(); i++) {
    for (int j = 0; j < tbl.getRowsNumber(); j++) {
        Cell cell = tbl.getCell(i, j);
        TextFrame tf = cell.getTextFrame();
        tf.setMarginLeft(0);
    }
}

//Write the presentation on disk
FileOutputStream fout = new FileOutputStream("C:/output.ppt");
srcPres.write(fout);
