I have a requirement to write data into ms-word in "Envelope Label" format.
I have used poi api XWPFDocument which is supporting table creation.
Can any one please suggest which library does supports the requirement and if possible please can you give me sample example.
Thank you,
Kavitha
you may use a Word Template and replace the placeholder with real value.
Please refer to the sample in link: link to replace text in MS Word using Apache POI

I am currently working at a project to extract the content of pdf files and search for certain keywords in them.
For extracting the content I am using PDFBox and this works fine.
The problem I now have encountered is that I want to be able to search for certain keywords only within chapter headlines.
At the moment my code for extracting looks like this:
PDDocument doc = PDDocument.load(pdfFile);
String text = new PDFTextStripper().getText(doc);
doc.close();
This only extracts the raw text of the file, with no information about headlines. I was not able to figure out how to use PDFBox to include such information. So I am not sure if this is even possible.
Has anybody experience with this tool and can tell me, if its even possible to do this by using PDFBox and if yes, how I will be able to achieve this?
Kind regards
I'm trying to get/set checkbox value in Word document (.doc) with Apache POI.
I looked HWPFDocument API at poi.apache.org, but haven't found anything suitable...
Maybe somebody have a solution?
Thank You!
Unfortunately, this is currently not supported by POI. What does work is to read out (not set) dropdown lists via CharacterRun.getDropDownListValues() and CharacterRun.getDropDownListDefaultItemIndex().
Technically those dropdown lists are closely related to checkboxes, though. So it should not be too difficult to add the respective functionality to POI, if desired. Your entry point is a NilPICFAndBinData structure (handled by this class in POI), which leads you to some FFData (maps to this class in POI). Inside that you will find FFDataBits. These eventually contain an iRes value which encodes the status of that checkbox.
- This is exactly the same behavior as for dropdown lists, only that the iType of FFDataBits will be iTypeChck instead of iTypeDrop and has to be interpreted in a slightly different way.
I had the same problem. Had to write a VBA macro that gets the value of the checkboxs, stores it in a portable database and I get it from there.
I am using apache-poi api to create a word document.
I want to insert a PDF document into MS Word (normally we use Insert -> Object -> Create from file option in MS word to do this).
Is is possible to insert the PDF as an object into MS Word using Java ?

To solve this you have to use OLE. After a quick research I found no example code for WORD but I found some code for EXCEL and an example for PPTX. Maybe it is helpfull to write some corresponding code for WORD.
I am trying to create dynamic forms for a web application using Excel spreadsheets.
The form has some relatively advanced rules like the following:
Field A > Field B.
Field C must be shown if Check Box D is checked.
Field E is read-only and must be a sum of A and B.
Field G is sum of E and A or F and A if B is empty.
Combinations of rules.
These are just examples of some of them.
The server is implemented and runs in Java which I guess narrows the possible solutions. My first thought is to parse the excel spreadsheet with all required information into XML to enable either serverside or clientside conversion. This is basicly because I have found tools that work on either side.
So my question is whether anyone knows of a tool that can perform this conversion or if anyone knows of a better solution?
I have looked at https://github.com/davidmoten/xsd-forms but I am not sure it can implement all the required rules and license information is sparse.
I realize this question is quite vague but so is the task. Any help is appreciated.
I think you can use Apache's POI API for reading Excel sheet and JAX-B for generating XML from the data read from excel sheet.
You can read the more details about reading excel files using Apache's POI API over here.
i new to poi.i have a requirement to develop and edit the word document using poi.please send any sample examples for above question.
XWPF: See part 1 and 2 of my blog post on POI, here: http://tkgospodinov.com/writing-microsoft-word-documents-in-java-with-apache-poi/. You can use XWPFDocument#setParagraph to replace a whole paragraph with POI, so you can get the paragraph where you want to replace text, and create a new paragraph with the result and set it in place of the original. Keep in mind that this is new API since 3.7-beta2. I know it's a little convoluted, but currently that is the only way to accomplish that.
