Split Word documents
20 Dec 202224 minutes to read
Syncfusion Word Library allows you to split the large Word document into number of smaller word documents by the sections, headings, bookmarks, and placeholder text in programmatically.
By using this feature, you can be able to split/extract the necessary parts from the original document for further processing.
You can save the resultant document as a Word document (DOCX, WordML, DOC), PDF, image, HTML, RTF, and more.
Split by Section
The following code example illustrates how to split the Word document by sections.
//Load the template document
using (WordDocument document = new WordDocument(@"Template.docx"))
{
int i = 0;
//Iterate each section from Word document
foreach (WSection section in document.Sections)
{
//Create new Word document
WordDocument newDocument = new WordDocument();
//Add cloned section into new Word document
newDocument.Sections.Add(section.Clone());
//Save and close the new Word documet
newDocument.Save("Section" + i + ".docx");
newDocument.Close();
i++;
}
}'Load the template document
Using document As WordDocument = New WordDocument("Template.docx")
Dim i As Integer = 0
'Iterate each section from Word document
For Each section As WSection In document.Sections
'Create new Word document
Dim newDocument As WordDocument = New WordDocument()
'Add cloned section into new Word document
newDocument.Sections.Add(section.Clone())
'Save and close the new Word documet
newDocument.Save("Section" & i & ".docx")
newDocument.Close()
i += 1
Next
End Using//"App" is the class of Portable project.
