Text/label with embedded OLE Object

Aspose.Words Product Family
1

I’ve successfully embedded an OLE object (in my sample case, an .HTML file) into a Word 2010 docx. However, I don’t see a way to add text.

From Word, Insert, Object, Create from File, select file, choose checkbox Display as Icon, clear checkbox Link to file, click on OK. Then the object is nicely embedded, with the default icon, and the file name underneath.

From Java, I have

// Open an existing document.
Document doc = new Document(FOLDER + "Start.docx");
DocumentBuilder builder = new DocumentBuilder(doc);

BufferedImage ieImage = ImageIO.read(new File(FOLDER + "ie.png"));
Shape oleObject = builder.insertOleObject(FOLDER + "ObjectToEmbed.html", false, true, ieImage);

doc.save(FOLDER + "Output.docx");

This works, but I can’t see how I can add text as it done in Word.

I’d be grateful for any hints.

thanks

In fact, I’m quite happy to wait - it was priyanka1012 who bumped the post.

The workaround I’ve used is simply to place text next to the OLE object. It’s not perfect, but achieves the objectives.

Hi Matt,

Thanks for your patience. We have fixed the OLE object icon issue in latest version of Aspose.Words for Java 15.12.0. Please use following overloaded DocumentBuilder.insertOleObject method to achieve your requirements.

Document doc = new Document(MyDir + "input.docx");
DocumentBuilder builder = new DocumentBuilder(doc);
builder.moveToDocumentEnd();
builder.writeln();
builder.writeln();
BufferedImage ieImage = ImageIO.*read*(new File(MyDir + "in.jpg"));
builder.insertOleObject(MyDir + "input.html", "htmlfile", true, true, ieImage);
doc.save(MyDir + "Out.docx");

Regarding file name underneath the icon, we logged this feature as WORDSNET-11833. You will be notified via this forum thread once this issue is resolved. We apologize for your inconvenience.
