Converting word to pdf including hidden text.

[Clem]

Hi,

I am using Alfresco to transform a word document to pdf using the out
of the box converter.
This is an openoffice converter which uses the JODConverter.

The requirement we have is to make two seperate transformations. One
including hiddent test and one excluding the hidden text.

Does anyone know if this is possible and how I can go about doing this
with the JODConverter?

I would greatly appreciate any help with this.

Clem.

Open your Word document in OpenOffice.org Writer, select File > Export
as PDF... and see what options are available. If you are able to
achieve the results you want in the Writer GUI, I can then tell you
how to automate the same with JODConverter.

Kind regards

Hi Mirko,
There is actually no option available to enable the Hidden Text when
selecting File -> Export to PDF in Open Office.

In MS Word this is done by selecting File ->Print->Options and
selecting the Hidden Text Checkbox under section "Include with
Document". Once this is selected and converted to PDF using Adobe the
Hidden Text is included.

However, in Open Office when File ->Print Settings -> Options and
select Hidden checkbox under section "Contents" the Hidden Text is not
displayed when print previewing / exporting to PDF.

There appears to be no option in Open Office to display the Hidden
Text when printing or exporting to PDF.

The only way to include it is to disable the hidden text - by
Highlighting text and unchecking Hidden in Format ->Character->Font
Effects Tab.

Would you know of a method of actually including the Hidden Text when
exporting to PDF from Open Office?

Thanks,
Clem

If OpenOffice.org doesn't offer an option for that, then I'm afraid
there's no easy way to do it.

(It may be possible to write some custom code that manipulates the
document making the hidden text visible before exporting it to PDF,
but it's not a simple configuration change.)

Kind regards
