How to read shapes group as an image from Word document(.doc or .docx) using apachePOI?

I have a simple requirement to extract all the Images and Diagrams drawn in MS Word file.
I am able to extract only images but not group of shapes(like Use Case Diagram or Activity Diagram). I want to save all the Diagrams as Image.
I have used apachePOI.
Following code I have written
public class worddocreader {
public static void main(String args[]) {
FileInputStream fis;
try {
FileInputStream fs = new FileInputStream("F:/1.docx");
XWPFDocument docx = new XWPFDocument(fs);
List<XWPFPictureData> piclist = docx.getAllPictures();
Iterator<XWPFPictureData> iterator = piclist.iterator();
int i = 0;
while (iterator.hasNext()) {
XWPFPictureData pic = iterator.next();
byte[] bytepic = pic.getData();
BufferedImage imag = ImageIO.read(new ByteArrayInputStream(
bytepic));
ImageIO.write(imag, "image/jpeg", new File("F:/docParsing/imagefromword" + i + ".jpg"));
i++;
}
ArrayList<PackagePart> packArrayList = docx.getPackageRelationship().getPackage().getParts();
int size = packArrayList.size();
System.out.println("Array List Size : " + packArrayList.size());
while (size-->0) {
PackagePart packagePart = packArrayList.get(size);
System.out.println(packagePart.getContentType());
try{
BufferedImage bfrImage = ImageIO.read(packagePart.getInputStream());
ImageIO.write(bfrImage,"image/png",new File("F:/docParsing_emb/size"+size+".png"));
}catch(Exception e){
e.printStackTrace();
}
}
System.out.println("Done");
} catch (Exception e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
}
}
It only extract Images not Shapes.
Does anybody knows How do I do this ?

So you are after the stuff defined in [MS-ODRAW], i.e. so-called OfficeDrawings which can be created directly in Word using its Drawing palette?
Unfortunately, POI offers only little help here. With HWPF (the old binary *.doc file format) you can get a handle to such data like so:
HWPFDocument document;
OfficeDrawings officeDrawings = document.getOfficeDrawingsMain();
OfficeDrawing drawing = officeDrawings.getOfficeDrawingAt(OFFSET);
// OFFSET is a global character offset describing the position of the drawing in question
// i.e. document.getRange().getStartOffset() + x
This drawing can then be further processed into individual records:
EscherRecordManager escherRecordManager = new EscherRecordManager(drawing.getOfficeArtSpContainer());
EscherSpRecord escherSpRecord = escherRecordManager.getSpRecord();
EscherOptRecord escherOptRecord = escherRecordManager.getOptRecord();
Using the data from all these records you can theoretically render out the original drawing again. But it's rather painful...
So far I've only done this in a single case where I had lots of simple arrows floating around on a page. Those had to be converted to a textual representation (something like: "Positions (x1, y1) and (x2, y2) are connected by an arrow"). Doing this essentially meant to implement a subset of [MS-ODRAW] relevant to those arrows using the above-mentioned records. Not exactly a pleasant task.
MS Word backup solution
If using MS Word itself is an option to you, then there is another pragmatic way:
extract all relevant offsets that contain OfficeDrawings using POI.
Inside Word: Iterate over the document with VBA and copy all the drawings at the given offsets to the clipboard.
Use some other application (I chose Visio) to dump the clipboard contents into a PNG.
The necessary check for a drawing in step 1 is very simple (see below). The rest can be completely automated in Word. If anyone is in need, I can share the respective VBA code.
if (characterRun.isSpecialCharacter()) {
for (char currentChar : characterRun.text().toCharArray()) {
if ('\u0008' == currentChar) return true;
}
}

If you mean Office Art objects then
In the class org.apache.poi.hwpf.HWPFDocument
there is a _officeDrawingsMain that contains the office art objects

"Random" generated documents fail to print

We are attempting to generate documents using iText that are formed largely from "template" files - smaller PDF files that are combined together into one composite file using the PdfContentByte.addTemplate method. We then automatically and silently print the new file using the *nix command lp. This usually works; however occasionally, some files that are generated will fail to print. The document proceeds through all queues and arrives at the printer proper (a Lexmark T652n, in this case), its physical display gives a message of pending progress, and even its mechanical components whir up in preparation - then, the printing job vanishes spontaneously without a trace, and the printer returns to being ready.
The oddity in how specific this issue tends to be. For starters, the files in question print without fail when done manually through Adobe PDF Viewer, and can be read fine by editors like Adobe Live Cycle. Furthermore, the content of the file effects whether it is plagued by this issue, but not in a clear way - adding a specific template 20 times could cause the problem, while doing it 19 or 21 times might be fine, or using a different template will change the pattern entirely and might cause it to happen instead after 37 times. Generating a document with the exact same content will be consistent on whether or not the issue occurs, but any subtle and seemingly irrelevant change in content will change whether the problem happens.
While it could be considered a hardware issue, the fact remains that certain iText-generated files have this issue while others do not. Is our method of file creation sometimes creating files that are somehow considered corrupt only to the printer and only sometimes?
Here is a relatively small code example that generates documents using the repetitive template method similar to our main program. It uses this file as a template and repeats it a specified number of times.

Running this program with a DEFAULT_NUMBER_OF_TIMES of 23 produces this document and causes the failure when sent to the printer. Changing it to 22 times produces this similar-looking document (simply with one less "line") which does not have the problem and prints successfully. Using a different PDF file as a template component completely changes these numbers or makes it so that it may not happen at all.
While this problem is likely too specific and with too many factors for other people to reasonably be expected to reproduce, the question of possibilities remains. What about the file generation could cause this unusual behavior? What might cause one file to be acceptable to a specific printer but another, generated in the same manner in different only in seemingly non-trivial ways, to be unacceptable? Is there a bug in iText produced by using the stamper template commands too heavily? This has been a long-running bug with us for a while now, so any assistance is appreciate; additionally, I am willing to answer questions or have extended conversations in chat as necessary in an effort to get to the bottom of this.

The design of your application more or less abuses the otherwise perfectly fine PdfStamper functionality.
Allow me to explain.
The contents of a page can be expressed as a stream object or as an array of a stream objects. When changing a page using PdfStamper, the content of this page is always an array of stream objects, consisting of the original stream object or the original array of stream objects to which extra elements are added.
By adding the same template creating a PdfStamper object over and over again, you increase the number of elements in the page contents array dramatically. You also introduce a huge number of q and Q operators that save and restore the stack. The reason why you have random behavior is clear: the memory and CPU available to process the PDF can vary from one moment to another. One time, there will be sufficient resources to deal with 20 q operators (saves the state), the next time there will only be sufficient resources to deal with 19. The problem occurs when the process runs out of resources.
While the PDFs you're creating aren't illegal according to ISO-32000-1, some PDF processors simply choke on these PDFs. iText is a toolbox that allows you to create PDFs that can make me very happy when I look under the hood, but it also allows you to create horrible PDFs if you don't use the toolbox wisely. The latter is what happened in your case.
You should solve this be reusing the PdfStamper instance instead of creating a new PdfStamper over and over again. If that's not possible, please post another question, using less words, explaining exactly what you want to achieve.
Suppose that you have many different source files with PDF snippets that need to be added to a single page. For instance: suppose that each PDF snippet was a coupon and you need to create a sheet with 30 coupons. Than you'd use a single PdfWriter instance, import pages with getImportedPage() and add them at the correct position using addTemplate().
Of course: I have no idea what your project is about. The idea of coupons of a page was inspired by your test PDF.

how to search a file with lucene

I want to do a search for a query within a file "fdictionary.txt" containing a list of words (230,000 words) written line by line. any suggestion why this code is not working?
The spell checking part is working and gives me the list of suggestions (I limited the length of the list to 1). what I want to do is to search that fdictionary and if the word is already in there, do not call spell checking. My Search function is not working. It does not give me error! Here is what I have implemented:
public class SpellCorrection {
public static File indexDir = new File("/../idxDir");
public static void main(String[] args) throws IOException, FileNotFoundException, CorruptIndexException, ParseException {
Directory directory = FSDirectory.open(indexDir);
SpellChecker spell = new SpellChecker(directory);
IndexWriterConfig config = new IndexWriterConfig(Version.LUCENE_20, null);
File dictionary = new File("/../fdictionary00.txt");
spell.indexDictionary(new PlainTextDictionary(dictionary), config, true);
String query = "red"; //kne, console
String correctedQuery = query; //kne, console
if (!search(directory, query)) {
String[] suggestions = spell.suggestSimilar(query, 1);
if (suggestions != null) {correctedQuery=suggestions[0];}
}
System.out.println("The Query was: "+query);
System.out.println("The Corrected Query is: "+correctedQuery);
}
public static boolean search(Directory directory, String queryTerm) throws FileNotFoundException, CorruptIndexException, IOException, ParseException {
boolean isIn = false;
IndexReader indexReader = IndexReader.open(directory);
IndexSearcher indexSearcher = new IndexSearcher(indexReader);
Analyzer analyzer = new StandardAnalyzer(Version.LUCENE_20);
Term term = new Term(queryTerm);
Query termQuery = new TermQuery(term);
TopDocs hits = indexSearcher.search(termQuery, 100);
System.out.println(hits.totalHits);
if (hits.totalHits > 0) {
isIn = true;
}
return isIn;
}
}

where are you indexing the content from fdictionary00.txt?
You can search using IndexSearcher, only when you have index. If you are new to lucene, you might want to check some quick tutorials. (like http://lucenetutorial.com/lucene-in-5-minutes.html)

You never built the index.
You need to setup the index...
Directory directory = FSDirectory.open(indexDir);
Analyzer analyzer = new StandardAnalyzer(Version.LUCENE_20);
IndexWriter writer = new IndexWriter(directory,analyzer,true,IndexWriter.MaxFieldLength.UNLIMITED );
You then need to create a document and add each term to the document as an analyzed field..
Document doc = new Document();
doc.Add(new Field("name", word , Field.Store.YES, Field.Index.ANALYZED));
Then add the document to the index
writer.AddDocument(doc);
writer.Optimize();
Now build the index and close the index writer.
writer.Commit();
writer.Close();

You could make your SpellChecker instance available in a service and use spellChecker.exist(word).
Be aware that the SpellChecker will not index words 2 characters or less. To get around this you can add them to the index after you have created it (add them into SpellChecker.F_WORD field).
If you want to add to your live index and make them available for exist(word) then you will need to add them to the SpellChecker.F_WORD field. Of course, because you're not adding to all the other fields such as gram/start/end etc then your word will not appear as a suggestion for other misspelled words.
In this case you'd have had to add the word into your file so when you re-create the index it would then be available as a suggestion. It would be great if the project made SpellChecker.createDocument(...) public/protected, rather than private, as this method accomplishes everything with adding words.
After all this your need to call spellChecker.setSpellIndex(directory).

thanks in advance

If I understand you correctly, you're essentially talking about merging documents. There are two very simple approaches that you can use, and their effectiveness really depends on the structure and onward use of your data:
PhilippeAuriach describes one approach in his answer, which entails
appending all components within a MaindocumentPart instance to
another. In terms of the final docx file, this means the content
that appears in document.xml -- it won't take into account headers
and footers ( for example), but that may be fine for you.
You can insert multiple documents into a single docx file by inserting them
as AltChunk elements (see the docx4j documentation). This will
bring everything from one Word file into another, headers and all.
The downside of this is that your final document won't be a proper
flowing Word file until you open it and save it in MS Word itself
(the imported components remain as standalone files within the docx
bundle). This will cause you issues if you want to generated
'merged' files and then do something with them like render PDFs --
the merged content will simply be ignored.
The more complete (and complex) approach is to perform a "deep merge". This updates and maintains all references held within a document. Imported content becomes part of the main "flow" of the document (i.e. it is not stored as separate references), so the end result is a properly-merged file which can be rendered to PDF or whatever.
The downside to this is you need a good knowledge of docx structure and the API, and you will be writing a fair amount of code (I would recommend buying a license to Plutext's MergeDocx instead).

I had to deal with similar things, and here is what I did (probably not the most efficient, but working) :
create a finalDoc loading the template, and emptying it (so you have the styles in this doc)
for each data row, create a new doc loading the template, then replace your fields with your values
use the function below to append the doc filled with the datas to the finalDoc :
public static void append(WordprocessingMLPackage docDest, WordprocessingMLPackage docSource) {
List<Object> objects = docSource.getMainDocumentPart().getContent();
for(Object o : objects){
docDest.getMainDocumentPart().getContent().add(o);
}
}
Hope this helps.

Creating tables in a MS Word file using Java

I want to create a table in a Microsoft Office Word file using Java. Can anybody tell me how to do it with an example?

Have a look at Apache POI
The POI project is the master project
for developing pure Java ports of file
formats based on Microsoft's OLE 2
Compound Document Format. OLE 2
Compound Document Format is used by
Microsoft Office Documents, as well as
by programs using MFC property sets to
serialize their document objects.

I've never seen it done, and I work in Word a lot. If you really want to programatically do something in a word document then I'd advise using Microsoft's scripting language VBA which is specifically designed for this purpose. In fact, I'm working in it right now.
If you're working under Open Office then they have a very similar set of macro-powered tools for doing the same thing.

Office 2003 has an xml format, and the default document format for office 2007 is xml (zipped). So you could just generate xml from java. If you open an existing document it's not too hard too see the xml required.
Alternatively, you could use openoffice's api to generate a document, and save it as a ms-word document.

This snippet can be used to create a table dynamically in MS Word document.
WPFDocument document = new XWPFDocument();
XWPFTable tableTwo = document.createTable();
XWPFTableRow tableTwoRowOne = tableTwo.getRow(0);
tableTwoRowOne.getCell(0).setText(Knode1);
tableTwoRowOne.createCell().setText(tags.get("node1").toString());
for (int i = 1; i < nodeList.length; i++) {
String node = "node";
String nodeVal = "";
XWPFTableRow tr = null;
node = node + (i + 1);
nodeVal = tags.get(node).toString();
if (tr == null) {
tr = tableTwo.createRow();
tr.getCell(0).setText(nodeList[i]);
tr.getCell(1).setText(tags.get(node).toString());
}
}

Our feature set is to hit a button in our web app and get the page you are looking at back as a Word document. We use the docx schema for description of documents and have a bunch of Java code on the server side which does the document creation and response back to our web client. The formatting itself is done with some compiled xsl-t's from within Java to translate from our own XML persistence tier.
The docx schema is pretty hard to understand. The way we made most progress was to create template docx's in Word with exactly the formatting that we needed but with bogus content. We then fooled around with them until we understood exactly what was going on. There is a huge amount in the docx that you don't really need to worry about. When reading / translating the docx Word is pretty tolerant to a partially complete formatting schema. In fact we chose to strip out pretty much all the formatting because it also means that the user's default formatting takes precedence, which they seem to prefer. It also makes the xsl process faster and the resulting document smaller.

I manage the docx4j project
docx4j contains a class TblFactory, which creates regular tables (ie no row or column spans), with the default settings which Word 2007 would create, and with the dimensions specified by the user.
If you want a more complex table, the easiest approach is to create it in Word, then copy the resulting XML into a String in your IDE, where you can use docx4j's XmlUtils.unmarshalString to create a Tbl object from it.

Using my little zip utility, you can create docx with ease, if you know what you're doing. Word's DOCX file format is simply zip (folders with xml files). By using java zip utilities, you can modify existing docx, just the content part.
For the following sample to work, simply open Word, enter few lines, save document. Then with zip program, remove file word/document.xml (this is file where main content of the Word document is residing) from the zip. Now you have the template prepared. Save modified zip.
Here is what creation of new Word file looks:
/* docx file head */

Office Writer would be a better tool to use than POI for your requirement.
If all you want is a simple table without too much of formatting, I would use this simple trick. Use Java to generate the table as HTML using plain old table,tr,td tags and copy the rendered HTML table into the word document ;)

Click here for a Working example with source code.
This example generates MS-Word docs from Java, based on a template concept.
