Automatic PageBreak

[morix]

Can Spire.doc add automatically page break ? i need to have the same word paging without process a file with MS Word

Spire.doc count pages so i would like to have the pagebreak at the end of the page even if is in the middle of a single word

Dear morix,

Thanks for your inquiry.
Please note that MS Word document is a flow document which does not contain any information about its layout into lines and pages. Like MS Word, our Spire.Doc will automatically break a page according to the content that the page can hold rather than in the form of adding a PageBreak at the end of the page. Kindly note that the PageBreak is used to forcibly break a page.
If I misunderstand you, please let me know.

I have a plain text and i want to know in his document.xml when MS word puts its pagebreak WITHOUT opening and saving document with MS word. Is this possible?

Dear morix,

Thanks for your inquiry.
As I mentioned before, MS Word document is a flow document which does not contain any information about its layout into lines and pages, so it is impossible to achive that.

Dear morix,

Thanks for your feedback.
MS Word document is flow document and does not contain any information about its layout into lines and pages. Therefore, technically there is no "Page" and "Line" concept in Word document, so it will be very tough to calculate the height of every element accurately, and it depends on lots of things, such as the font you use and where/how the paragraph contents break. Yet after a further investigation on your requirement, we found there is only a way to roughly calculate the position of page break.
Firstly, get the page width and page height as below.

Code: Select all

            pageWidth = section.PageSetup.PageSize.Width - section.PageSetup.Margins.Left - section.PageSetup.Margins.Right;
            pageHeight = section.PageSetup.PageSize.Height - section.PageSetup.Margins.Top - section.PageSetup.Margins.Bottom;

Then confirm the position of page break by calculating the height and width of text by yourself. Kindly note this is just a rough calculation, and maybe the breaks are different from the breaks in MS word.
