getFontInfos | |
public FontInfoCollection getFontInfos() |
This collection of font definitions is loaded as is from the document. Font definitions might be optional, missing or incomplete in some documents.
Do not rely on this collection to ascertain that a particular font is used in the document. You should only use this collection to get information about fonts that might be used in the document.
getStyles | |
public StyleCollection getStyles() |
For more information see the description of the
Example:
Shows how to get access to the collection of styles defined in the document.Document doc = new Document(); StyleCollection styles = doc.getStyles(); for (Style style : styles) System.out.println(style.getName());
Example:
Shows how to create and use a paragraph style with list formatting.Document doc = new Document(); DocumentBuilder builder = new DocumentBuilder(doc); // Create a paragraph style and specify some formatting for it. Style style = doc.getStyles().add(StyleType.PARAGRAPH, "MyStyle1"); style.getFont().setSize(24); style.getFont().setName("Verdana"); style.getParagraphFormat().setSpaceAfter(12); // Create a list and make sure the paragraphs that use this style will use this list. style.getListFormat().setList(doc.getLists().add(ListTemplate.BULLET_DEFAULT)); style.getListFormat().setListLevelNumber(0); // Apply the paragraph style to the current paragraph in the document and add some text. builder.getParagraphFormat().setStyle(style); builder.writeln("Hello World: MyStyle1, bulleted."); // Change to a paragraph style that has no list formatting. builder.getParagraphFormat().setStyle(doc.getStyles().get("Normal")); builder.writeln("Hello World: Normal."); builder.getDocument().save(getMyDir() + "Lists.ParagraphStyleBulleted Out.doc");
getLists | |
public ListCollection getLists() |
For more information see the description of the
Example:
Shows how to specify list level number when building a list using DocumentBuilder.Document doc = new Document(); DocumentBuilder builder = new DocumentBuilder(doc); // Create a numbered list based on one of the Microsoft Word list templates and // apply it to the current paragraph in the document builder. builder.getListFormat().setList(doc.getLists().add(ListTemplate.NUMBER_ARABIC_DOT)); // There are 9 levels in this list, lets try them all. for (int i = 0; i < 9; i++) { builder.getListFormat().setListLevelNumber(i); builder.writeln("Level " + i); } // Create a bulleted list based on one of the Microsoft Word list templates // and apply it to the current paragraph in the document builder. builder.getListFormat().setList(doc.getLists().add(ListTemplate.BULLET_DIAMONDS)); // There are 9 levels in this list, lets try them all. for (int i = 0; i < 9; i++) { builder.getListFormat().setListLevelNumber(i); builder.writeln("Level " + i); } // This is a way to stop list formatting. builder.getListFormat().setList(null); builder.getDocument().save(getMyDir() + "Lists.SpecifyListLevel Out.doc");
isComposite | → inherited from CompositeNode |
public boolean isComposite() |
hasChildNodes | → inherited from CompositeNode |
public boolean hasChildNodes() |
getChildNodes | → inherited from CompositeNode |
public NodeCollection getChildNodes() |
Note, GetChildNodes(NodeType.Any, false)
and creates and returns a new collection every time it is accessed.
If there are no child nodes, this property returns an empty collection.
Example:
Shows how to enumerate immediate children of a CompositeNode using the enumerator provided by the ChildNodes collection.NodeCollection<Node> children = paragraph.getChildNodes(); for (Node child : children) { // Paragraph may contain children of various types such as runs, shapes and so on. if (child.getNodeType() == NodeType.RUN) { // Say we found the node that we want, do something useful. Run run = (Run)child; System.out.println(run.getText()); } }
getFirstChild | → inherited from CompositeNode |
public Node getFirstChild() |
Example:
Shows how to enumerate immediate child nodes of a composite node using NextSibling. In this example we enumerate all paragraphs of a section body.// Get the section that we want to work on. Section section = doc.getSections().get(0); Body body = section.getBody(); // Loop starting from the first child until we reach null. for (Node node = body.getFirstChild(); node != null; node = node.getNextSibling()) { // Output the types of the nodes that we come across. System.out.println(node.getNodeType()); }
Example:
Shows how to efficiently visit all direct and indirect children of a composite node.public void recurseAllNodes() throws Exception { // Open a document. Document doc = new Document(getMyDir() + "Node.RecurseAllNodes.doc"); // Invoke the recursive function that will walk the tree. traverseAllNodes(doc); } /// <summary> /// A simple function that will walk through all children of a specified node recursively /// and print the type of each node to the screen. /// </summary> private void traverseAllNodes(CompositeNode parentNode) { // This is the most efficient way to loop through immediate children of a node. for (Node childNode = parentNode.getFirstChild(); childNode != null; childNode = childNode.getNextSibling()) { // Do some useful work. System.out.println(childNode.getNodeType()); // Recurse into the node if it is a composite node. if (childNode.isComposite()) traverseAllNodes((CompositeNode)childNode); } }
getLastChild | → inherited from CompositeNode |
public Node getLastChild() |
Example:
Demonstrates use of methods of Node and CompositeNode to remove a section before the last section in the document.// Document is a CompositeNode and LastChild returns the last child node in the Document node. // Since the Document can contain only Section nodes, the last child is the last section. Node lastSection = doc.getLastChild(); // Each node knows its next and previous sibling nodes. // Previous sibling of a section is a section before the specified section. // If the node is the first child, PreviousSibling will return null. Node sectionBeforeLast = lastSection.getPreviousSibling(); if (sectionBeforeLast != null) doc.removeChild(sectionBeforeLast);
getCount | → inherited from CompositeNode |
public int getCount() |
getNodeType | → inherited from Node |
public abstract int getNodeType() |
Example:
Shows how to enumerate immediate child nodes of a composite node using NextSibling. In this example we enumerate all paragraphs of a section body.// Get the section that we want to work on. Section section = doc.getSections().get(0); Body body = section.getBody(); // Loop starting from the first child until we reach null. for (Node node = body.getFirstChild(); node != null; node = node.getNextSibling()) { // Output the types of the nodes that we come across. System.out.println(node.getNodeType()); }
Example:
Shows how to remove all nodes of a specific type from a composite node. In this example we remove tables from a section body.// Get the section that we want to work on. Section section = doc.getSections().get(0); Body body = section.getBody(); // Select the first child node in the body. Node curNode = body.getFirstChild(); while (curNode != null) { // Save the pointer to the next sibling node because if the current // node is removed from the parent in the next step, we will have // no way of finding the next node to continue the loop. Node nextNode = curNode.getNextSibling(); // A section body can contain Paragraph and Table nodes. // If the node is a Table, remove it from the parent. if (curNode.getNodeType() == NodeType.TABLE) curNode.remove(); // Continue going through child nodes until null (no more siblings) is reached. curNode = nextNode; }
getParentNode | → inherited from Node |
public CompositeNode getParentNode() |
If a node has just been created and not yet added to the tree, or if it has been removed from the tree, the parent is null.
Example:
Shows how to access the parent node.// Create a new empty document. It has one section. Document doc = new Document(); // The section is the first child node of the document. Node section = doc.getFirstChild(); // The section's parent node is the document. Assert.assertEquals(doc, section.getParentNode());
Example:
Shows that when you create any node, it requires a document that will own the node.// Open a file from disk. Document doc = new Document(); // Creating a new node of any type requires a document passed into the constructor. Paragraph para = new Paragraph(doc); // The new paragraph node does not yet have a parent. Assert.assertNull(para.getParentNode()); // But the paragraph node knows its document. Assert.assertEquals(doc, para.getDocument()); // The fact that a node always belongs to a document allows us to access and modify // properties that reference the document-wide data such as styles or lists. para.getParagraphFormat().setStyleName("Heading 1"); // Now add the paragaph to the main text of the first section. doc.getFirstSection().getBody().appendChild(para); // The paragraph node is now a child of the Body node. Assert.assertNotNull(para.getParentNode());
getDocument | → inherited from Node |
public DocumentBase getDocument() |
The node always belongs to a document even if it has just been created and not yed added to the tree, or if it has been removed from the tree.
Example:
Shows that when you create any node, it requires a document that will own the node.// Open a file from disk. Document doc = new Document(); // Creating a new node of any type requires a document passed into the constructor. Paragraph para = new Paragraph(doc); // The new paragraph node does not yet have a parent. Assert.assertNull(para.getParentNode()); // But the paragraph node knows its document. Assert.assertEquals(doc, para.getDocument()); // The fact that a node always belongs to a document allows us to access and modify // properties that reference the document-wide data such as styles or lists. para.getParagraphFormat().setStyleName("Heading 1"); // Now add the paragaph to the main text of the first section. doc.getFirstSection().getBody().appendChild(para); // The paragraph node is now a child of the Body node. Assert.assertNotNull(para.getParentNode());
getPreviousSibling | → inherited from Node |
public Node getPreviousSibling() |
If there is no preceding node, a null is returned.
Note: Calculating the value of this property iterates from the first child node of ParenNode to this node.
Example:
Demonstrates use of methods of Node and CompositeNode to remove a section before the last section in the document.// Document is a CompositeNode and LastChild returns the last child node in the Document node. // Since the Document can contain only Section nodes, the last child is the last section. Node lastSection = doc.getLastChild(); // Each node knows its next and previous sibling nodes. // Previous sibling of a section is a section before the specified section. // If the node is the first child, PreviousSibling will return null. Node sectionBeforeLast = lastSection.getPreviousSibling(); if (sectionBeforeLast != null) doc.removeChild(sectionBeforeLast);
getNextSibling | → inherited from Node |
public Node getNextSibling() |
Example:
Shows how to enumerate immediate child nodes of a composite node using NextSibling. In this example we enumerate all paragraphs of a section body.// Get the section that we want to work on. Section section = doc.getSections().get(0); Body body = section.getBody(); // Loop starting from the first child until we reach null. for (Node node = body.getFirstChild(); node != null; node = node.getNextSibling()) { // Output the types of the nodes that we come across. System.out.println(node.getNodeType()); }
Example:
Shows how to efficiently visit all direct and indirect children of a composite node.public void recurseAllNodes() throws Exception { // Open a document. Document doc = new Document(getMyDir() + "Node.RecurseAllNodes.doc"); // Invoke the recursive function that will walk the tree. traverseAllNodes(doc); } /// <summary> /// A simple function that will walk through all children of a specified node recursively /// and print the type of each node to the screen. /// </summary> private void traverseAllNodes(CompositeNode parentNode) { // This is the most efficient way to loop through immediate children of a node. for (Node childNode = parentNode.getFirstChild(); childNode != null; childNode = childNode.getNextSibling()) { // Do some useful work. System.out.println(childNode.getNodeType()); // Recurse into the node if it is a composite node. if (childNode.isComposite()) traverseAllNodes((CompositeNode)childNode); } }

deepClone | |
public Node deepClone(boolean isCloneChildren) throws java.lang.Exception |
If you need to generate many documents from a single document, just load the document into memory once, clone it and populate the cloned document with your data. This speeds up generation of documents because there is no need to load and parse the document from file every time.
isCloneChildren
-
True to recursively clone the content of the document;
false to clone only the document node and document-wide objects such as styles and lists.
importNode | |
public Node importNode(Node srcNode, boolean isImportChildren) throws java.lang.Exception |
Imports a node from another document to the current document.
This method uses the
Importing a node creates a copy of the source node belonging to the importing document. The returned node has no parent. The source node is not altered or removed from the original document.
Before a node from another document can be inserted into this document, it must be imported.
During import, document-specific properties such as references to styles and lists are translated
from the original to the importing document. After the node was imported, it can be inserted
into the appropriate place in the document using
If the source node already belongs to the destination document, then simply a deep clone of the source node is created.
srcNode
- The node being imported.isImportChildren
- True to import all child nodes recursively; otherwise, false.importNode | |
public Node importNode(Node srcNode, boolean isImportChildren, int importFormatMode) throws java.lang.Exception |
Imports a node from another document to the current document with an option to control formatting.
This overload is useful to control how styles and list formatting are imported.
Importing a node creates a copy of the source node belonging to the importing document. The returned node has no parent. The source node is not altered or removed from the original document.
Before a node from another document can be inserted into this document, it must be imported.
During import, document-specific properties such as references to styles and lists are translated
from the original to the importing document. After the node was imported, it can be inserted
into the appropriate place in the document using
If the source node already belongs to the destination document, then simply a deep clone of the source node is created.
srcNode
- The node to imported.isImportChildren
- True to import all child nodes recursively; otherwise, false.importFormatMode
- A Example:
Combines two documents into one.public void combineDocuments() throws Exception { // Open the destination document. Document dstDoc = new Document(getMyDir() + "Section.CombineDocuments1.doc"); // Open the source document. Document srcDoc = new Document(getMyDir() + "Section.CombineDocuments2.doc"); // For a twist, let's say I want the second document to start on the same page where // the first document ends. This is controlled by a property of the first section. srcDoc.getFirstSection().getPageSetup().setSectionStart(SectionStart.CONTINUOUS); // Combine the documents, see the function below. appendDoc(dstDoc, srcDoc); // Save the finished document. dstDoc.save(getMyDir() + "Section.CombineDocuments Out.doc"); } /// <summary> /// A useful function that you can use to easily append one document to another. /// </summary> /// <param name="dstDoc">The destination document where to append to.</param> /// <param name="srcDoc">The source document.</param> private void appendDoc(Document dstDoc, Document srcDoc) throws Exception { // Loop through all sections in the source document. // Section nodes are immediate children of the Document node so we can just enumerate the Document. for (Section srcSection : srcDoc.getSections()) { // Because we are copying a section from one document to another, // it is required to import the Section node into the destination document. // This adjusts any document-specific references to styles, lists, etc. // // Importing a node creates a copy of the original node, but the copy // is ready to be inserted into the destination document. Node dstSection = dstDoc.importNode(srcSection, true, ImportFormatMode.KEEP_SOURCE_FORMATTING); // Now the new section node can be appended to the destination document. dstDoc.appendChild(dstSection); } }
getText | → inherited from CompositeNode |
public java.lang.String getText() |
The returned string includes all control and special characters as described in
getChildNodes | → inherited from CompositeNode |
public NodeCollection getChildNodes(int nodeType, boolean isDeep) |
The collection of nodes returned by this method is always live.
A live collection is always in sync with the document. For example, if you selected all sections in a document and enumerate through the collection deleting the sections, the section is removed from the collection immediately when it is removed from the document.
nodeType
- A isDeep
- True to select from all child nodes recursively.
False to select only among immediate children. getChildNodes | → inherited from CompositeNode |
public NodeCollection getChildNodes(int nodeType, boolean isDeep, boolean isLive) |
Snapshot collections require less resources than live collections because a snapshot collection of nodes is not updated when the document is changed.
Snapshot collections are useful for tasks, that do not require immediate update of the collection when the document is changed. For example, select all shapes and delete them is more efficient using a snapshot collection.
A live collection is always in sync with the document. For example, if you selected all sections in a document and enumerate through the collection deleting the sections, the section is removed from the collection immediately when it is removed from the document.
nodeType
- A isDeep
- True to select from all child nodes recursively.
False to select only among immediate children. isLive
- True to return a live collection; false to return a snapshot collection.Example:
Shows how to extract images from a document and save them as files.public void extractImagesToFiles() throws Exception { Document doc = new Document(getMyDir() + "Image.SampleImages.doc"); NodeCollection<Shape> shapes = doc.getChildNodes(NodeType.SHAPE, true, false); int imageIndex = 0; for(Shape shape : shapes) { if (shape.hasImage()) { String extension = imageTypeToExtension(shape.getImageData().getImageType()); String imageFileName = MessageFormat.format("Image.ExportImages.{0} Out.{1}", imageIndex, extension); shape.getImageData().save(getMyDir() + imageFileName); imageIndex++; } } } private static String imageTypeToExtension(int imageType) throws Exception { switch (imageType) { case ImageType.BMP: return "bmp"; case ImageType.EMF: return "emf"; case ImageType.JPEG: return "jpeg"; case ImageType.PICT: return "pict"; case ImageType.PNG: return "png"; case ImageType.WMF: return "wmf"; default: throw new Exception("Unknown image type."); } }
getChild | → inherited from CompositeNode |
public Node getChild(int nodeType, int index, boolean isDeep) |
If index is out of range, a null is returned.
nodeType
- A index
- Zero based index of the child node to select.
Negative indexes are also allowed and indicate access from the end,
that is -1 means the last node.isDeep
- True to select from all child nodes recursively.
False to select only among immediate children. selectNodes | → inherited from CompositeNode |
public NodeList selectNodes(java.lang.String xpath) |
Only expressions with element names are supported at the moment. Expressions that use attribute names are not supported.

If the node being inserted was created from another document, you should use
newChild
- The node to add.Example:
Creates a simple document from scratch using the Aspose.Words object model.// Create an "empty" document. Note that like in Microsoft Word, // the empty document has one section, body and one paragraph in it. Document doc = new Document(); // This truly makes the document empty. No sections (not possible in Microsoft Word). doc.removeAllChildren(); // Create a new section node. // Note that the section has not yet been added to the document, // but we have to specify the parent document. Section section = new Section(doc); // Append the section to the document. doc.appendChild(section); // Lets set some properties for the section. section.getPageSetup().setSectionStart(SectionStart.NEW_PAGE); section.getPageSetup().setPaperSize(PaperSize.LETTER); // The section that we created is empty, lets populate it. The section needs at least the Body node. Body body = new Body(doc); section.appendChild(body); // The body needs to have at least one paragraph. // Note that the paragraph has not yet been added to the document, // but we have to specify the parent document. // The parent document is needed so the paragraph can correctly work // with styles and other document-wide information. Paragraph para = new Paragraph(doc); body.appendChild(para); // We can set some formatting for the paragraph para.getParagraphFormat().setStyleName("Heading 1"); para.getParagraphFormat().setAlignment(ParagraphAlignment.CENTER); // So far we have one empty pararagraph in the document. // The document is valid and can be saved, but lets add some text before saving. // Create a new run of text and add it to our paragraph. Run run = new Run(doc); run.setText("Hello World!"); run.getFont().setColor(Color.RED); para.appendChild(run); // As a matter of interest, you can retrieve text of the whole document and // see that \u000c is automatically appended. \u000c is the end of section character. Assert.assertEquals("Hello World!\u000c", doc.getText()); // Save the document. doc.save(getMyDir() + "Section.CreateFromScratch Out.doc");
prependChild | → inherited from CompositeNode |
public Node prependChild(Node newChild) throws java.lang.Exception |
If the newChild is already in the tree, it is first removed.
If the node being inserted was created from another document, you should use
newChild
- The node to add.insertAfter | → inherited from CompositeNode |
public Node insertAfter(Node newChild, Node refChild) throws java.lang.Exception |
If refChild is null, inserts newChild at the beginning of the list of child nodes.
If the newChild is already in the tree, it is first removed.
If the node being inserted was created from another document, you should use
newChild
- The Node to insert.refChild
- The Node that is the reference node. The newNode is placed after the refNode. insertBefore | → inherited from CompositeNode |
public Node insertBefore(Node newChild, Node refChild) throws java.lang.Exception |
If refChild is null, inserts newChild at the end of the list of child nodes.
Note: InsertBefore could be slower than InsertAfter because it needs to iterate over all nodes from the first child to the reference node.
If the newChild is already in the tree, it is first removed.
If the node being inserted was created from another document, you should use
newChild
- The Node to insert.refChild
- The Node that is the reference node. The newChild is placed before this node.removeChild | → inherited from CompositeNode |
public Node removeChild(Node oldChild) throws java.lang.Exception |
The parent of oldChild is set to null after the node is removed.
oldChild
- The node to remove.Example:
Demonstrates use of methods of Node and CompositeNode to remove a section before the last section in the document.// Document is a CompositeNode and LastChild returns the last child node in the Document node. // Since the Document can contain only Section nodes, the last child is the last section. Node lastSection = doc.getLastChild(); // Each node knows its next and previous sibling nodes. // Previous sibling of a section is a section before the specified section. // If the node is the first child, PreviousSibling will return null. Node sectionBeforeLast = lastSection.getPreviousSibling(); if (sectionBeforeLast != null) doc.removeChild(sectionBeforeLast);
removeAllChildren | → inherited from CompositeNode |
public void removeAllChildren() throws java.lang.Exception |
Example:
Creates a simple document from scratch using the Aspose.Words object model.// Create an "empty" document. Note that like in Microsoft Word, // the empty document has one section, body and one paragraph in it. Document doc = new Document(); // This truly makes the document empty. No sections (not possible in Microsoft Word). doc.removeAllChildren(); // Create a new section node. // Note that the section has not yet been added to the document, // but we have to specify the parent document.

The section needs at least the Body node. Body body = new Body(doc); section.appendChild(body); // The body needs to have at least one paragraph. // Note that the paragraph has not yet been added to the document, // but we have to specify the parent document. // The parent document is needed so the paragraph can correctly work // with styles and other document-wide information.

indexOf | → inherited from CompositeNode |
public int indexOf(Node child) |
accept | → inherited from Node |
public abstract boolean accept(DocumentVisitor visitor) throws java.lang.Exception |
Enumerates over this node and all of its children. Each node calls a corresponding method on DocumentVisitor.
For more info see the Visitor design pattern.
visitor
- The visitor that will visit the nodes.getAncestor | → inherited from Node |
public Node getAncestor(java.lang.Class ancestorType) |
The ancestor type matches if it is equal to ancestorType or derived from ancestorType.
ancestorType
- The object type of the ancestor to retrieve.getAncestor | → inherited from Node |
public Node getAncestor(int ancestorType) |
ancestorType
- A remove | → inherited from Node |
public void remove() throws java.lang.Exception |
Example:
Shows how to remove all nodes of a specific type from a composite node. In this example we remove tables from a section body.// Get the section that we want to work on. Section section = doc.getSections().get(0); Body body = section.getBody(); // Select the first child node in the body. Node curNode = body.getFirstChild(); while (curNode != null) { // Save the pointer to the next sibling node because if the current // node is removed from the parent in the next step, we will have // no way of finding the next node to continue the loop. Node nextNode = curNode.getNextSibling(); // A section body can contain Paragraph and Table nodes. // If the node is a Table, remove it from the parent. if (curNode.getNodeType() == NodeType.TABLE) curNode.remove(); // Continue going through child nodes until null (no more siblings) is reached. curNode = nextNode; }
nextPreOrder | → inherited from Node |
public Node nextPreOrder(Node rootNode) |
rootNode
- The top node (limit) of traversal.Example:
Shows how to delete all images from a document using pre-order tree traversal.Node curNode = doc; while (curNode != null) { Node nextNode = curNode.nextPreOrder(doc); if (curNode.getNodeType() == NodeType.SHAPE) { Shape shape = (Shape)curNode; // Several shape types can have an image including image shapes and OLE objects. if (shape.canHaveImage()) shape.remove(); } curNode = nextNode; }

- The top node (limit) of traversal.toTxt | → inherited from Node |
public java.lang.String toTxt() throws java.lang.Exception |
This method removes field codes and Microsoft Word control characters, uses CrLf
(or any other) combination of characters to mark ends of paragraphs in the resulting string.
It produces a different result from
