Full List of Issues Covering all Changes in this Release

Introduced new property PreserveDocumentStructure in WordProcessingLoadOptions class.

Usage example:

public class Main {
    public static void main(String[] args) {
        WebLoadOptions loadOptions = new WebLoadOptions();
        loadOptions.setSkipExternalResources(true);
        try (Converter converter = new Converter("sample.html", () -> loadOptions)) {
            converter.convert("converted.pdf", new PdfConvertOptions());
        }
    }
}

To skip loading most of the external resources, but still load some particular resources, use the WhitelistedResources property of the same classes. It accepts the string list containing the portions of URLs to be loaded while restricting the loading of other external resources.

The following code sample shows how to load the JPG and JPEG images and any resources from the example.com domain while restricting any other external resources:

public class Main {
    public static void main(String[] args) {
        WebLoadOptions loadOptions = new WebLoadOptions();
        loadOptions.setSkipExternalResources(true);
        loadOptions.setWhitelistedResources(Arrays.asList("jpg", "jpeg", "example.com"));
        try (Converter converter = new Converter("sample.html", () -> loadOptions)) {
            converter.convert("converted.pdf", new PdfConvertOptions());
        }
    }
}
