Convert html to doc in java

Question

I would like to convert either an html or xhtml document (preferably with styles) to Microsoft .doc and/or .docx format.

There seem to be plenty of examples for doin

Answer 1

In order to work with Microsoft Documents you'll likely have to take a deeper look at Apache's POI Library.

Nevertheless creating .doc files with styling from (X)HTML requires some effort.

Answer 2

I tried docjx4j API 2.8.1 and it works like wonder. It had ConvertinXHTMLinFile and it works fine. If anyone wants the code I will post it.

Here is the link that helped me : ConvertInXHTMLFile

Answer 3

docx4j 2.8.0 supports converting XHTML documents and fragments to docx content. Disclosure: I wrote some of the code.

Answer 4

I've been spending a little time looking into docx4j. It seems to provide nice ways for creating html documents from docx but I can't see anything for the other way round.

At the moment this is still looking like the easiest method as it's just working with jaxb objects (I think).

Answer 5

Yet another solution would be to use jodconverter which seems to basic html to doc conversion... it doesn't claim to do it well though
