Word document to Text preserve spacing

Aspose.Words Product Family

I have a test document I created and the different formats display the document correctly, with the exception of a text document. For the most part the text document is correct but it seems to be removing any empty lines. Is there any way to instruct the conversion to try to preserve the spacing? Really we would like to have a space before and after the list


For instance the document is output like this:

This is a test
1. Test
2. Test
3. Test
This is more of the same test.

instead of like this

This is a test

1. Test
2. Test
3. Test

This is more of the same test.

Hi Cameron,


Thanks for your inquiry.

Please note that when you save your Word document to TXT format by using MS WORD, the spacing between lines is not preserved. Aspose.Words mimics the same behaviour. I am afraid, there is no direct way you can achieve this. However, you can write your own utility to loop through the Paragraph nodes and depending upon your logic, you can output the text to Plain Text file as required.

If we can help you with anything else, please feel free to ask.

Best Regards,
