Hi,

I'm having troubles that DOCX ToC are updated when generating PDFs in my Spring Boot Service. So I stumbled across this closed issue, where TableOfContentUpdaterFilter was introduced. But I'm not sure how to configure it when using the Spring Boot Starter. The autowired DocumentConverter can only be influenced by the properties, but I don't see a property for filters. Do I need to dump the spring libraries and use jodconverter directly, or am I missing something here?

Thanks in advance for your answers.

We recently switched to LibreOffice Portable to easily distribute LibreOffice with our software. Now I realized that LibreOffice Portable works a little differently. Therefore I took your source and started to modify it for the support. However, I am sure I do it a bit too much quick and dirty. If I told you what the significant differences are, could you help me to find the places where I should apply those changes to contribute back to you?

The differences are:

• You need to start LibreOfficePortable from the LibreOfficePortable.exe (that can be solved by somehow detecting that the officepath is within a libreofficeportable, then it uses a different executable path which points to the LibreOfficePortable.exe)
• On close, it is important that the JODConverter does not close the LibreOfficePortable.exe, since that is only a wrapper. So it needs to close a different process than the one it opened, which is either the soffice.exe or the soffice.bin (the soffice.bin seems to work better, but we did not test that extensively yet).

Edit: THIS IS NOT REQUIRED, DO NOT INCLUDE INTO DOCUMENTATION.

1. If I don't start libreoffice process manually (I used default port in code), jodconverter can convert file but writes warning to console:
   Warning: Office process died with exit code 81; restarting it
   Every time when I convert file I see above warning. So jodconverter starts libreoffice with default 2002 port and can convert file, but there is warning. I understand that libreoffice has not been started but 1st time warning is ok, but subsequent warnings means jodconverter always starts libreoffice not keeping it alive for future requests.

2. I start libreoffice like this manually in terminal (used 8100 port):
   libreoffice --headless --accept="socket,host=0,port=8100,tcpNoDelay=1;urp" --nodefault --nofirststartwizard --nolockcheck --nologo --norestore --invisible &
   I check that there is soffice.bin, oosplash processes are running.
   I converted one file with jodconverter (first time). Everything is ok, no warning. Conversion was successful. But after conversion soffice.bin and oosplash processes are died.
   I converted file again (second time). It also converted file but there was a warning! And all other future conversions had warnings.

Following are debug logs when warning is produced:

This is the code to convert file (fodt to pdf):

val officeManager = LocalOfficeManager.builder().portNumbers(8100).install().build()
try {
  officeManager.start()
  JodConverter
      .convert(tmpFodtFilePath.toFile)
      .to(tmpPdfFilePath.toFile)
      .execute()
} finally {
  OfficeUtils.stopQuietly(officeManager)
}

I'm using: Kubuntu (Ubuntu) 16.04, LibreOffice 5.1.6.2 10m0(Build:2), java 8, jodconverter 4.1.1 snapshot,

Hello,

I'm using JodConverter (v-4.0.0) to convert some documents from docx to pdf in my web application. One of the problems that I have is that I need to update the table of contents in the input documents. To do this I created a macro in LibreOffice to update my TOC everytime a document is opened with LibreOffice. However when I use JodConverter to convert my files, the macros aren't executed and my TOC isn't updated.

Do you know if JodConverter supports this? Do I need to use some kind of config in my code for the converter to get the macros to run?

I saw this in an old forum and tried but it did not work.

Do you have any tips for me?

Thanks in advance!

We run different instances of the same web application on our server, all of these instances want to start an Office process. Due to OfficeProcess.checkForExistingProcess(), only one Office process can be started, others fail to do so.

Any idea or workaround for this issue?

So releases and binaries could be retrieved. This goes along with issue #5.

Can i control the jodconverter convert some file to .html that the format is what i want.
Such as charset=gb2312 i need utf-8.
Sorry foy my bad English

I create my own listener as

public class JodConverterContextListener implements ServletContextListener {

        }
    }

    @Override
    public void contextDestroyed(final ServletContextEvent event) {
        try {
            JodConverterContext.destroy(event.getServletContext());
        } catch (OfficeException e) {

The OnlineConversionTask do not call the targetFile.onComplete, and it should.

Hi,

I'm attempting to upgrade from the abandoned version of JODConverter to your new improved one. Package names ("artofsolving") and API has changed slightly but appears to be very similar. I thought I hooked everything up properly but now when I try to convert an image to PDF I get the following error.

RuntimeException: No-args constructor for class org.jodconverter.document.DocumentFormat does not exist. Register an InstanceCreator with Gson for this type to fix this problem.

Any ideas?

Thanks,

The LibreOffice 6 has been released. The default installation path is changed from "C:\Program Files\LibreOffice 5" to "C:\Program Files\LibreOffice".

@sbraconnier are you going to support your branch?
Do you know does OO/jodconverter support converting with setting output file's encoding?

I am looking for a bit of guidance here, as I have been searching for a few days now and just can't seem to find the correct settings I am after. When using LibreOffice you can export a office document (.docx) as a .png image. When doing this operation through LibreOffice itself, you have the options to specify the final image Height/Width/DPI. I want to be able to configure the same information when using the LocalConverter. I am assuming I need to set the storeProperties map on either the converter of the target DocumentFormat, but I can't seem to find what the name/value pair for the map needs to be.

Can anyone point me in the right direction for configuring these options?

I was using jodconvertor for converting my word documents into an HTML document. However, i have a requirement to convert a particular page from docx into HTML. Can we do that? If so, is there any code sample you could show or any unit test case you could point me to.

Create a new filter that will take the content of a document and append it at the end of the document being converted. This will add merging support, as required here #42

We should create temporary file base on the document format.

I have two docker container: one with libreoffice (--headless --accept='socket,host=0,port=8997,tcpNoDelay=1;urp;') and another one with java server application with jodconverter. How can I configure OfficeManager to interoperate with office in another container?
As I understand, LocalOfficeManager works only with office on localhost. I try to use OnlineOfficeManager, but conversion failed by timeout.

The spring boot starter should allow the user to enable (and configure) both the jodconverter-local and the jodconverter-online modules. This would probably introduce a breaking change sine the jodconverter-local properties will now be under the jodconverter.local properties (instead of jodconverter alone).

The module jodconverter-online 4.1.0 does not support SSL.

The module should allow an advanced SSL configuration, including SSL client authentication, support for self-signed certificate, hostname verification strategy, etc...

I have to convert some documents from rtf to pdf. Basically it works.
but i've to change the margins of the new document.
I read the wiki, and thinked of using a Filter could do this, but nothing changed the new pdf..

What have i done wrong?

Here is my new Filter:

public class PageMarginFilter implements Filter {

	private final long  topMargin;
	private final long  righttMargin;
	private final long  bottomMargin;
	private final long  leftMargin;
		
	public PageMarginFilter( final long topMargin, final long rightMargin, final long bottomMargin, final long leftMargin ) {
		super();
			
		this.topMargin = topMargin;
		this.righttMargin = rightMargin;
		this.bottomMargin = bottomMargin;
		this.leftMargin = leftMargin;
			
	}
		
	@Override
	public void doFilter( OfficeContext context, XComponent document, FilterChain chain ) throws Exception {
			
		final XTextDocument docText = UnoRuntime.queryInterface( XTextDocument.class, document );
		final XMultiServiceFactory docServiceFactory = UnoRuntime.queryInterface( XMultiServiceFactory.class, docText );
		final XStyle xStyle = UnoRuntime.queryInterface( XStyle.class, docServiceFactory.createInstance( "com.sun.star.style.PageStyle" ) );
		final XPropertySet xPSetPageStyle = (XPropertySet) UnoRuntime.queryInterface( XPropertySet.class, xStyle );
		xPSetPageStyle.setPropertyValue ( "LeftMargin", leftMargin );
			
		chain.doFilter( context, document );
	}
		
}

and this is how i used it:

LocalConverter
		.builder()
		.officeManager( officeManager )
		.filterChain( pageMarginFilter )
		.build()
		.convert( inputStream )
		.as( DefaultDocumentFormatRegistry.RTF )
		.to( outputStream )
		.as( DefaultDocumentFormatRegistry.PDF )
		.execute();

I'm using Java 8 and JODConverter 4.1

I couldn't find necessary functionality from spec, and here is an idea:
We need config param to control creating libreoffice processes. Now if libreoffice process is not running jodconverter tries to start it automatically. I think it should not start/restart office process and should depend on some config parameter.
It can be autoStartOfficeProcess param and by default it might be true. If user sets false to this param, jodconverter shouldn't start/restart office process and should throw error about not running process. User takes responsibility for running processes.
Note: old jodconverter 2.2.1 by default didn't start office process. This feature (starting process automatically) is good and should be controlled by user.

It would be great if JODConverter users could have a example app showing them how to use the jodconverter-spring-boot-starter module.

Load/Store FilterOptions could be helpful if a client want to use customize the conversion, e.g: converting documents to html with embedded images requires FilterOptions to be set to "EmbedImages".

See #41

 I get the jar from maven:

  org.jodconverter
  jodconverter-core
  4.0.0-RELEASE

But i can't find the class below:DefaultOfficeManager ,DocumentConverter  etc,whether it need to be updated?

Is it possible to call the webservice remotely as was possible with the old jodconverter?

I noticed there is this mapping missing:

And obviously the code I want to run is calling this URL http://localhost/service.

For reference the feature was:

/**
 * This servlet offers a document converter service suitable for remote invocation
 * by HTTP clients written in any language.
 * <p>
 * To be valid a request to service must:
 * <ul>
 *   <li>use the POST method and send the input document data as the request body</li>
 *   <li>specify the correct <b>Content-Type</b> of the input document</li>
 *   <li>specify an <b>Accept</b> header with the mime-type of the desired output</li>
 * </ul>
 * <p>
 * As a very simple example, a request to convert a text document into PDF would
 * look something like
 * <pre>
 * POST /jooconverter/service HTTP/1.1
 * Host: x.y.z
 * Content-Type: text/plain
 * Accept: application/pdf
 * 
 * Hello world!
 * </pre>
 */

The documentation (Wiki) should offer a complete guide on how to use JODConverter along with LibreOffice Portable.

See #28 as a starting point.

Since the conversion can also start from the template types of open office, the types should also be included. I added at least the OTT in my local version of your code.

I would like to create a logo for this project but have no talent for this kind of thing. Anybody wants to be in the credits section for this ??

spring-boot-configuration-processor extracts the default value and put in in a dedicated field in the metadata. IDEs use that information to show the default value in auto-inspection and in the detail panel.

Please consider not including "default to" in the description as this information is redundant.

Add support to convert from to fodt, fods, fodp and fodg formats (Flat XML formats), as specified in #42.

Those will work only with LibreOffice.

if I give a source file named 'abc.doc', the converter is very good.
But, if source file named 'abc', it will go wrong.
And,the converter also can run when I remove the extension check. So ,I think you can remove the source file extension check in the code. here is a PR

Tried to build the project but got the following error:

FAILURE: Build failed with an exception.

Rather than having a dependency management for Spring and Spring Boot separately, could you please just align and use Spring Boot's dependency management instead? Spring Boot 2.0 GA is around the corner now with proper integration with Spring Framework 5.

Thanks

Hi there!
I hope you can help me with this as I found no more example codes.
If this is the wrong place to ask this kind of question, then I'm sorry.

I used the code snippets from https://github.com/sbraconnier/jodconverter/wiki/Java-Library and /Configuration#file_folderofficehome to get a very simple function to convert a DOC to PDF:

OfficeManager officeManager = LocalOfficeManager.builder().officeHome(officePath).build();
try {
	officeManager.start();
	long start = System.currentTimeMillis();
	JodConverter.convert(new File(src)).to(new File(dest)).execute();
	Logger.writeToLog("Generated pdf in " + (System.currentTimeMillis() - start) + " ms");
} catch (Exception ex) {
	Logger.writeToLog(ex);
} finally {
	OfficeUtils.stopQuietly(officeManager);
}

There's a very high change I got something wrong here, but I have absolutely no clue as Eclipse compiles with no errors.

I'm using the CORE and the LOCAL jars (both downloaded from MvmRepo) and resolved all the dependencies.

The code above is the complete function to get called with 3 params: source file, destination file and officePath. I can't use LocalOfficeManager.install() because I don't have a default install of LibreOffice.

I'm on MacOS and use /Volumes/Applications/LibreOffice.app/Contents as officePath variable here.

Any help or hint is appreciated!

Thank You!

Best
Daniel

I'm using old version of jodconverter 2.2.1. I don't know if it's possible to merge multiple fodt files and then convert to pdf file. Now I can convert 1 fodt file to pdf.
I find this fork, I want to use it if it supports converting multiple files to 1 pdf file (merge then convert).
For example: I've a.fodt, b.fodt, c.fodt, extra.fodt files. I want this a.fodt + extra.fodt => result.pdf, b.fodt + extra.fodt => result2.pdf, ...

Following the question #26, I would be useful to have a filter that could update the TOC of a text document.

Unable to find this classes:

org.jodconverter.OfficeDocumentConverter;
org.jodconverter.office.DefaultOfficeManagerBuilder;

They are no longer there so I assume the approach was changed. I was unable to find documentation about it. You probably need to consider Wiki pages to upgrade from one version to another when things like this happen.

Hello,

I want to implement my own custom local office task to be processed on libreoffice using the JODConverter classes. I intend to base my work on yours since the JODConverter has a beautiful implementation of different types of connections as well as process handling etc. Can you give me a recommendation on how to achieve the following:

CreatingADocumentUsingLOTask cadulot = new CreatingADocumentUsingLOTask(...some params for the task...);
LocalOfficeManager manager = LocalOfficeManager.install();
manager.execute(cadulot);
manager.stop();

Which parts do I have to implement my custom CreatingADocumentUsingLOTask to allow it to be executed? What I want to do in there is to load a libreoffice template, edit some parts, replace some placeholders and finally export the document to a stream. I can do that already using my own classes, however, I now want to transform it into a task I can execute using JODConverter. How can I do this?

Thanks!

Hello,

I see that you revived JODConverter from the dead and built a pretty descent library out of it. Thanks for your work! Now since the last release, you did a larger refactoring into local and remote part. Is there going to be a new release soon?

How can I configure jodconverter so it can process multiple request without waiting in queue ?

Look at the examples in https://github.com/sbraconnier/jodconverter/wiki/Configuration between the LocalOfficeManager.builder() there is a semicolon before the build();

From my understanding, this should be a dot instead.

The original author of JODConverter generously and positively answered to my request, which was about the content of the now unresponsive former JODConverter web site. My goal is to import (and update) the documentation here on GitHub.

1. In the class OfficeUtils, EXECUTABLE_MAC_41 is should be MacOS/soffice instead of MacOS/soffice.bin

2. In the class OfficeProcess at line 343: pid = processManager.findPid(processQuery) in MacOS:
   the pid is always returned PID_NOT_FOUND that caused the program exit, I think there is error in the method findPid that is different with Ubuntu.

I changed MacOS/soffice.bin to MacOS/soffice and comment out the check of if(pid == PID_NOT_FOUND), then the program can convert doc to html.

unoconv has the -e switch, so you can for instance say

$ unoconv -f pdf -eUseTaggedPDF=true -ofoo.pdf foo.docx

It would be handy to have the same feature in JODConverter.

Rather than compile, that dependency should be declared as compileOnly. It is not required at runtime and shouldn't be added to the classpath when the starter is added.

I can't find jodconverter-online in maven repository

Please.
