Convert Docx to PDF and generate a new contract document version

[Former Member]

Hi Experts,

     We try to convert the final contract document docx type conversion become pdf type,and then upload the file to generate a new contract document version.But we encountered the following problems:

     1.We use Jacob to do the type conversion,but the program at the time of new ActiveXComponent is not error termination,but in a server directly use Java operation is no problem.We do not konw the reason.

ActiveXComponent app = null;
        try {
           debugMessage = "Debug:chengxi4:start" ;
             logMsg(debugMessage);
            app = new ActiveXComponent("Word.Application");
           debugMessage = "Debug:chengxi4:new ActiveXComponent" ;
             logMsg(debugMessage);
            app.setProperty("Visible", false);

            Dispatch docs = app.getProperty("Documents").toDispatch();
            Dispatch doc = Dispatch.call(docs,//
                    "Open", //
                    docFilename,// FileName
                    false,// ConfirmConversions
                    true // ReadOnly
                    ).toDispatch();

     2.We use the following code to generate a new contract document version,but did not success.

public void addAtta(){
//1. get document version
        DocumentVersionIBeanImpl docVersionBean = (DocumentVersionIBeanImpl)doc.getDocVersions().get(0);
        //DocumentVersionIBeanImpl docVersionBean = null;
        //AssociativeCollectionIfc colli = doc.getDocVersions();
        //docVersionBean = (DocumentVersionIBeanImpl) colli.create();
//        AttachmentIfc attachment = docVersionBean.getDoc();
        //2.create empty New Attachment
        AttachmentIfc newAttachment= TypeFactory.createAttachment();
        //3. read file to inputstream
        InputStream is = null;
        try {
            is = new FileInputStream("E:\\usr\\sap\\deve_file\\0000449270.pdf");
        } catch (FileNotFoundException e) {
            // TODO Auto-generated catch block
            e.printStackTrace();
        }
        //4. get ParentObjectReference
        ParentObjectReferenceIfc parentRef = TypeFactory.createParentObjectReference(doc);
        //5. set context for new attachment 
        newAttachment.setFileData("chengxi.pdf", is, parentRef, session);
        //6. set new version
        docVersionBean.setDoc(newAttachment);
    }
addAtta();

It only covers the last version of the file,and can not save this change.

Please help to answer the following code what the lack or what is wrong,and how to generate a new version of document in clm(SAP Sourcing) system and save.

I have to solve second problems.Just add the following line of code can be.

//6. set new version

        docVersionBean.setDoc(newAttachment);

        colli.add(docVersionBean);

For the first question, is the following sentence code causes the JACOB error(Can't co-create object).I don't konw how to solve.So plan to use JAVA POI.

app = new ActiveXComponent("Word.Application");
