hai jaya
Better serach in the website of apache CVS. Where u can get the example
files. I don't know the exact link. But you can able to get the correct
example from that CVS. Search with download of the HWPFD.
it is very simple. If not mail me.
with regards
eswar

Just a quick reminder. I/most committers who have looked at it/ don't
recommend using the present HWPF codebase. We will have a new code base
which we're negotiating. I've been meaning to update the documentation
to reflect this.
The present HWPF codebase is very bad, devoid of meaningful unit tests,
chokes on a lot of different docs, and will do a better job of
corrupting data than writing it.

hello friends thank for u suggetions,
i tried i got some result,but i am not
getting the total document.i am getting only the first line of the
document.plz give solution to this.
here is my following code:
////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
import java.io.*;
import org.apache.poi.hwpf.usermodel.*;
import org.apache.poi.hwpf.HWPFDocument;
public class Test11
{
public Test11()
{
}
public static void main(String[] args)throws IOException
{
try
{
HWPFDocument doc = new HWPFDocument (new FileInputStream (fin));
Range r = doc.getRange();
FileOutputStream out=new FileOutputStream("d:\\example.txt");
for (int x = 0; x < r.numSections(); x++)
{
Section s = r.getSection(x);
for (int y = 0; y < s.numParagraphs(); y++)
{
Paragraph p = s.getParagraph(y);
for (int z = 0; z < p.numCharacterRuns(); z++)
{
//character run
CharacterRun run = p.getCharacterRun(z);
//character run text
String text = run.text();
byte[] b1=text.getBytes();
// show us the text
out.write(b1);
}
out.close();
}
}
}
catch (Throwable t)
{
t.printStackTrace();
}
}
}
///////////////////////////////////////////////////////
my original document is:
I want to read a powerpoit file "A" and write it content to create another
powerpoint "B".
The simple way is to use FileInputStream to read a byte array from file
A.ppt and FileOutputStream to write the byte array to B.ppt. It's work.
But today, i don't want to use raw byte array to write to B.ppt
immediately(Just the program's demand, i do not want to do this too!!:<). I
translate the byte array to "String", then translate it back to byte array
and write it to B.ppt. One problem happens!!
this program output is:
I want to read a powerpoit file "A" and write it content to create another
powerpoint "B".
plz give solution to this problem.i would be thankful if u give solution to
my problem

Hello,
use the following code and extract
HWPFDocument doc = new HWPFDocument(fin);
Range range = doc.getRange();
int totParagraphs = range.numParagraphs();
for (int i = 0; i < totParagraphs; i++) {
Paragraph para = range.getParagraph(i);
get text run from para and then get text and properties from run
}

Just a little bit of a "Doh!" moment on your part...
You're printing the extracted text to System.out, in addition to your
file, hence you're seeing it on your screen

hi friend thanks for ur advice.
But i have on doubt:
By running the PowerPointExtractor.java class i am
getting out put on console(System.out).I want to get on some text file for
that i changed the PowerPointExtractor.java class
and complied this class and replace this .class in the old .class in the
jar(poi-scratchpad-3.0).but its giving the out put on the same
target(system.out)
below my chaned code:
PrintWriter out = new PrintWriter (new FileOutputStream("d:\\vipin.txt"));
PowerPointExtractor ppe = new PowerPointExtractor(file);
System.out.println(ppe.getText(true,notes));
out.println(ppe.getText(true,notes));
out.close();
ppe.close();
why its giving same.
please give the solution to this problem.
regards,
prakash.

PowerPoint Text Extraction:
http://jakarta.apache.org/poi/hslf/quick-guide.html
Word Text Extraction:
import org.apache.poi.hwpf.usermodel.*;
import org.apache.poi.hwpf.HWPFDocument;
public String getWordText(InputStream inputStream) {
HWPFDocument wdoc = new HWPFDocument(inputStream);
String docText = extractText(wdoc);
return docText;
}
For both of these, you'll need a recent CVS build, and you'll need both
the main JAR, and the scratchpad JAR. If you don't fancy doing that
yourself, grab copies from:
