Read/Write VSSX Stencil, VSTX Template & Embed Resultant HTML Resources Support using Java

What’s new in this release?

We are pleased to announce the new release of Aspose.Diagram for Java 5.9.0.  The complete support for reading and writing VSSX stencil and VSTX template have been added. Developers can also embed output HTML resources into the single HTML document, copy styles and page sheet properties from other Visio drawings. Starting from this version, Aspose.Diagram API allows developers to migrate their old stencils (.VSS) and templates (.VST) to the new VSSX and VSTX formats respectively. It helps in using vector graphics to create diagrams and get rid of old complex binary formats. Aspose.Diagram API users can now serve the scenario where they need to embed output HTML resources into a single HTML document and also save it in the instance of a stream. This feature also enables them to store the output HTML in the repository or storage. Previously, Aspose.Diagram API was only saving the output HTML along with its resources in a separate directory. In Microsoft Office Visio, when we paste shapes into a destination Visio, it copies every style and formatting associated with the shapes. In order to mimic the behavior of MS Office Visio, Aspose.Diagram API has added CopyTheme method in the Diagram class and Copy method in the PageSheet class. These new methods also cover many defects in reference to missing style and formatting of the shapes during various manipulation tasks. This release includes several enhanced features and bug fixes as listed below

Export CAD Layouts to PDF, Expand/Crop an Image & Export PSD Layers to Raster Images using .NET

What’s new in this release?

We are pleased to announce the new release of Aspose.Imaging for .NET 3.0.0. This month’s release contains many useful improvements where the most worth mentioning enhancement is the new improved imaging core. Moreover, this release has provided the support for the famous DjVu file format. Aspose.Imaging for .NET API has improved the imaging core for performance considerations by converting the internal structure to utilize the byte array instead of the Aspose.Imaging.Color array. With these changes in place, the latest revision is less resource consuming and more efficient as compared to any of its predecessors. Previously, the imaging core used the Aspose.Imaging.Color array to store the pixel information due to which each pixel had to occupy 24 bytes in the memory. This schema proved to be the performance bottleneck in scenarios where images having huge dimensions have to be processed, reason being; the image required more memory to process and hence more time to flush the data. Since this release, the API has added new interfaces and methods which are available in public API as well as being used internally for core processing. Now, the Color is represented as 32-bit ARGB integer structure where there are 4 color channels stored in the order of ARGB. DjVu file format is becoming popular as an alternative to PDF because it has smaller file size as compared to PDF. DjVu format can also be considered as a superior alternative to PDF for digital documents, to TIFF for scanned bitonal documents, to JPEG and JPEG2000 for photographs and pictures, and to GIF for large palatalized images. With this release, the API has provided the support for loading DjVu files for possible conversion to raster image formats as well as PDF. In order to provide this support, the API has exposed DjvuImage class along with many new helping classes, method & properties whose details are available in the Public API Changes section. Like PDF & TIFF, the DjVu files can have multiple pages/frames therefore while converting the DjVu files to raster formats such as TIFF & GIF, all pages of DjVu are rendered to the resultant image by default. It can also be used to convert the DjVu files to PDF format while using the existing PdfOptions class. It is up to the user requirement if all DjVu pages or a subset of the pages are to be exported in PDF format. This release has exposed a new class IntRange that can be used to specify a range that in turn can be passed to an instance of DjvuMultiPageOptions for the conversion of specific range of DjVu pages to TIFF or GIF. It is also possible to store each DjVu page to separate raster image. In order to achieve this goal, this release has exposed an overload constructor of DjvuMultiPageOptions that could accept an integer value to export the specific page. This mechanism can be extended to render individual DjVu pages to raster formats. Another overload constructor of DjvuMultiPageOptions class can accept an integer value as well as an instance of Rectangle to export a specific portion of DjVu page to raster image format. The main new and improved features added in this release are listed below

• Support for DjVu file format
• Value offset not word-aligned: 4261403 while validating Aspose.Imaging's generated TIFF with JHOVE
• ImageLoadException: Cannot process loading further due to incorrect file format structure. Error details: Index was out of range, at Image.Load while loading a DWG
• Performance lag while watermarking frames of a large TIFF image
• Textual contents do not render while converting the DXF to TIFF
• ArgumentException: Font isocpeur_0 not found, at Image.Save while converting DXF to TIFF
• Unable to convert jpeg 2000 image
• Improve performance of core processing
• Improve performance of PNG codec
• ImageLoadException: Cannot open an image. The image file format may be not supported at the moment, while loading a certain DXF
• ImageLoadException: Cannot open an image. The image file format may be not supported at the moment." while loading a certain DXF
• Resize image destroys EXIF data
• Support of changing contrast/brightness setting and image quality of JPEG image
• Specify Jpeg quality while converting BMP to Jpeg

Read ActiveX Control Properties & Trim Whitespaces from Mail Merge Values in Java/.NET Apps

What's New in this Release?
 
Aspose development team is happy to announce the monthly release of Aspose.Words for Java & .NET 15.12.0. This month’s release contains over 89 useful new features, enhancements and bug fixes to the Aspose.Words products. Here is a look at just a few of the biggest features and API changes in this month’s release, Support of Read-only access to ActiveX Control properties, Support of Default page margins, header and footer distance, column spacing depends on current culture, Introduced Overloaded method InsertOleObject in DocumentBuilder class, Introduced SuggestedFileName Property in OleFormat class, Avoid Populating Merge Fields Inside the false Part of IF Field, Support of Ruby Tags in HTML Import and support of Applying styles from the template during HTML insertion. OleControl is new public class and represents ActiveX control. OleControl class is base class for all ActiveX objects. You can check whether control is a Forms 2.0 OLE control by OleControl.IsForms2OleControl property. Type of Forms2OleControl is exposed in Forms2OleControlType.Type property. OleControl.IsForms2OleControl property will return true when control type is Forms 2.0 OLE control. Now default page margins, header/footer distance and column spacing depend on current culture to mimic MS Word behavior. For example, now all page margins are 1 for English (United States) and English (United Kingdom). Left, right, top margins are 2.5 cm; bottom margin is 2 cm for German. The new defaults are used for a new document and for a loaded document if an explicit value is not set for the mention parameters. Previous implementation of InsertOleObject expects full file name to linked object and chooses ProgId and ClsId depending on file extension. Passing internet URL reveals new use case. We can’t extract file type from URL directly, URL can refer to page in very different way. It can be www.aspose.com, www.aspose.com\index.aspx?id=1 and so on. So Aspose.Words decided to make new method which allows customer to pass ProgId explicitly. Microsoft Word is smart enough to extract file name of embedded OLE object if it is an OutlookAttach OLE object. So Aspose.Words mimics the same behavior. If file name can not be extracted, empty string is returned. Originally, this issue was about introducing the option to control whether to populate merge field inside false part of IF field or not. However, we eventually decided that the suggested option was too specific. Thus we decided to simply make Aspose.Words avoid populating merge fields inside the false part of the field. The cleanup options are not applied too. So, false part of the IF field remains unchanged, like in MS Word mail merge preview. It also supports for Applying styles from the template during HTML insertion. That is why, the option was renamed. The list of new and improved features added in this release are given below

• Access ActiveX control properties

Load Only Visible Worksheets from Existing Spreadsheet & Create Excel’s Built-in Styles using Java

What’s new in this release?

We are pleased to announce the new release of Aspose.Cells for Java 8.6.3. This month’s release contains many useful features and improvements along with some critical bug fixes. Aspose.Cells APIs provide a set of classes for the developers to influence the spreadsheet loading mechanism. While using the LoadOptions & LoadDataOptions classes, the developers can set a number of options such as force the API to load specific worksheets, where the worksheets can be specified via their indices or names. It  has exposed another useful property for the LoadDataOptions class which allows to load only the visible worksheets from an existing spreadsheet, where the hidden worksheets will be simply ignored and will not be available in the Aspose.Cells object model for any processing. The newly exposed property is of type Boolean; setting it to true means that the API will ignore the hidden worksheets and load only the visible worksheets for further processing. It has exposed a method that can be used to create an object of the Style class that corresponds to one of the built-in styles offered by the Excel application. The Workbook.createBuiltinStyle method accepts a constant from the enumeration BuiltinStyleType. Please note, with previous releases of the Aspose.Cells APIs, same task could be accomplished via StyleCollection.createBuiltinStyle method but as the recent releases of Aspose.Cells APIs have removed the StyleCollection class from the public API therefore the newly exposed Workbook.createBuiltinStyle method can be considered as an alternative approach to achieve the same goal. The most notable enhancements in this release includes, It has exposed the ImportTableOptions.setHtmlString attribute which directs the API to parse the HTML tags while importing data onto the Worksheet and set the parsed result as cell value. Please note, Aspose.Cells APIs already provide the Cell.setHtmlString attribute to perform this task for a single cell, however, while importing data in bulk, the ImportTableOptions.setHtmlString attribute (when set to true) tries to parse all the supported HTML tags and sets the parsed results to the corresponding cells, This release has addressed some formatting issues reported for the XML Spreadsheet 2003 to XLSX conversion and Enhanced the PDF rending engine to maximize the fidelity for the Excel Chart objects.  This release includes several enhanced features and bug fixes as listed below

• How to create BuiltinStyleType with Workbook.Styles being obsoleted
• Failure in processing upper-case image source tag when converting from HTML to Excel
• Hidden cell is wrongly displayed in output HTML

Work with Distribution Lists on Exchange Server & Format Forward/Reply Messages using .NET

What's New in this Release?

Aspose team is pleased to announce the release of Aspose.Email for .NET 6.0.0. We have included new features and enhancements in this month’s release to reduce the gap between the MS Outlook and Aspose.Email for .NET API features.
