README.md

A pure Java library for converting Microsoft Word (docx) files to Java2D.

Quick Start

Create a DocxReader and render it to your GraphicsBuilder implementation:

Renderer renderer = new DocxRenderer(new File("input.docx"));

renderer.render(new GraphicsBuilder() {
	@Override
	public Graphics2D nextPage(int pageWidth, int pageHeight) {
		BufferedImage bi = new BufferedImage(pageWidth, pageHeight, BufferedImage.TYPE_INT_RGB);

		return (Graphics2D) bi.getGraphics();
	}
});

Note: A real GraphicsBuilder implementation (see examples below) will need to keep a reference to the Graphics2D object for displaying to a screen, saving to disk, etc

Examples

• DOCX to PDF
• DOCX to SVG
• DOCX to Bitmap Images

FAQ

Why is the output so huge?

The output is in OOXML's native units (twips). The size can be reduced by setting the scale of the Graphics2D object:

public class ScaledGraphicsBuilder implements GraphicsBuilder {
	@Override
	public Graphics2D nextPage(int pageWidth, int pageHeight) {
		Graphics2D g2 = ...;
		g2.scale(0.05, 0.05); // native twips to actual size (72 DPI)
		return g2;t
	}
}
