Conversion to pdf extremely slow.

[marcel@blake.net.nz]

Hi There,

I am trying to save a 100 page word document to pdf using spire.doc. If I open the document in word and save to pdf it takes 11 sec. Using Spire.doc just hangs.

What can you do to speed this process up? It is causing major issues with out clients.

Hello,

I have the same issue.

I have a really big word document built with spire.doc.
It weighs about 65mo and has more than 620 pages.

The generation of the Word document is quite quick (about 1mn30) but the generation in pdf takes more than 15 minutes!

Is there something to do to speed up this generation ?

Hello,

I tried the new ddls and I encounter each time an OverflowException...

Try to repeat several times the word file in attachment and then save it as a pdf and you should reproduce the problem...

Hi,

Thanks for your feedback.
I tested your word file with the following code, everything was ok.

Code: Select all

for (int i = 0; i < 10; i++)
            {
              Document doc = new Document();
              doc.LoadFromFile(inputWord);     
              doc.SaveToFile(outputPDF,FileFormat.PDF);
              doc.Dispose();
            }

Would you please tell us your system environment and share your testing code?

Thank you.

Hi,

Indeed what you tried works.
But instead of saving in different files, append in a separated document and save it at the end.
Try something like this

Code: Select all

Document finalDoc = new Document();
for (int i = 0; i < 10; i++)
            {
              Document doc = new Document();
              doc.LoadFromFile(inputWord);     
              finalDoc.ImportContent(doc, false);
            }
finalDoc.SaveToFile(outputPDF,FileFormat.PDF);
finalDoc.Dispose();


When I make an assembled file, I encouter the error each time...

Hi,

Thanks for your providing.
Please close or dispose doc document after finishing importing content. I tested the following code with Spire.Doc Version:5.5.211 for .NET4.0, and there was no any error.

Code: Select all

 Document finalDoc = new Document();
            for (int i = 0; i < 10; i++)
            {
                Document doc = new Document();
                doc.LoadFromFile("template_test.docx");
                finalDoc.ImportContent(doc, false);
                doc.Close();
                doc.Dispose();
            }
            finalDoc.SaveToFile(outputPDF, FileFormat.PDF);
            finalDoc.Dispose();

If the issue still exists, please tell us your system environment for further investigation. Thank you.

Hi,

I'm on .NET 3.5 and Spire.doc 5.5.211
And if I had to resume my code it would be like this (I added a portion of code in VB just to show you more details) :

Code: Select all

Document finalDoc = new Document();
for (int i = 0; i < 10; i++)
            {
              Document doc = new Document();
              doc.LoadFromFile(inputWord);     

              '''' Sorry it's in VB
              For Each s As Section In doc.Sections
                    t = New Table(doc)
                    r = t.AddRow()
                    c = r.AddCell()
                   
                    t.TableFormat.LayoutType = LayoutType.Fixed
                    t.PreferredWidth = New PreferredWidth(WidthType.Percentage, 100)
           
                    While s.Body.ChildObjects.Count > 0
                        Dim obj As DocumentObject = s.Body.ChildObjects(0)                                   

                        c.ChildObjects.Add(obj)
                    End While
                   
                    For Each p As Paragraph In c.Paragraphs
                        p.Format.KeepFollow = True
                    Next

                    s.Tables.Add(t)
                Next             
                '''' End of VB section

              finalDoc.ImportContent(doc, false);
            }
finalDoc.SaveToFile(outputPDF,FileFormat.PDF);
finalDoc.Dispose();
