Created attachment 32843 [details] A test file to reproduce the problem with Dear all, I’m looking for a simple solution to parse only the newest version of an XWPF file (as if all changes are accepted or so). As far as I could google and browse through the javadoc there is no such functionality in apache poi, is that correct? I.e.: - Open a MS Word document - Track changes - Remove text from the document (in tracked-mode) - Save. (see file attached) - Open file with apache POI - iterate through paragraphs - call getText() on the paragraphs Outcome: The removed text is returned. Expected: Only text of the "final version" of the document is returned. Best, Henning
Created attachment 32844 [details] Patch Here is a patch, that checks if there is a deletion item associated with a run, before it adds the text. I'm not sure which other items could contain such a deletion, so I just checked for XWPFRuns.
The fix is a simple check: if (run instanceof XWPFRun) { + XWPFRun xRun = (XWPFRun) run; + if (xRun.getCTR().getRsidDel() == null) { + out.append(xRun.toString()); + } + }
