Convert PDF to responsive HTML

Aspose.PDF Cloud Product Family

I need to generate html out of pdf document and ive used api method “PutPdfInRequestToHtml” for the same.

I tried both with fixedLayout and without fixedLayout, however, i have issues with both the outputs

  1. With fixedLayout - It uses styles “left and top” which has 2 major issues…
    i. It is not responsive and
    ii. In a paragraph, line ends with character exactly as in pdf, instead of continuing the paragraph on the same line for a wider screen… may be because it considers each line as a paragraph tag…

  2. Without fixedLayout - the resulting html is completely misaligned…

Thanks,
Hemant

Hi,

Attached is somewhat expected HTML document… The expectation is that the paragraphs are displayed properly in continuation and should be responsive.

Thanks for sharing expected HTML document. I am investigating the PutPdfInRequestToHtml API method behavior and will update you soon.

Meanwhile, you may try Aspose.Words Cloud ConvertDocument API. Testen_AW.zip (17.2 KB)

curl -X PUT "https://api.aspose.cloud/v4.0/words/convert?format=html&outPath=Temp/Testen_AW.html" 
-H "accept: application/xml" 
-H "authorization: Bearer [Access_Token]" 
-H "Content-Type: multipart/form-data" 
-F "File=@C:/Temp/Test-en.pdf"

Hi Tilal,

I’m sure this Aspose.word convertDocument was working for pdf files yesterday, but today it is giving an error.

Thanks for your inquiry. I’m afraid, I’m unable to replicate the error. It seems you are using old SDK 19.2. Please use latest SDK version, hopefully it will help you to resolve the issue.
