  Assert.assertEquals(forcePageBreaks ? 3 : 1, doc.getPageCount());

• getMemoryOptimization/setMemoryOptimization

  public boolean getMemoryOptimization() / public void setMemoryOptimization(boolean value)
  

  Gets or sets value determining if memory optimization should be performed before saving the document. Default value for this property is false.

  Setting this option to true can significantly decrease memory consumption while saving large documents at the cost of slower saving time.

  Example:

  Shows an option to optimize memory consumption when you work with large documents.

  // Create a new document and add some paragraphs
  Document doc = new Document();
  DocumentBuilder builder = new DocumentBuilder(doc);
  
  builder.writeln("Paragraph 1.");
  builder.writeln("Paragraph 2.");
  builder.write("Paragraph 3.");
  
  // When saved to plain text, the paragraphs we created can be separated by a custom string
  TxtSaveOptions txtSaveOptions = new TxtSaveOptions();
  {
      txtSaveOptions.setSaveFormat(SaveFormat.TEXT);
      txtSaveOptions.setParagraphBreak(" End of paragraph.\n\n\t");
  }
  
  doc.save(getArtifactsDir() + "TxtSaveOptions.ParagraphBreak.txt", txtSaveOptions);

• getPrettyFormat/setPrettyFormat

  public boolean getPrettyFormat() / public void setPrettyFormat(boolean value)
  

  When true, pretty formats output where applicable. Default value is false.

  Set to true to make HTML, MHTML, EPUB, WordML, RTF, DOCX and ODT output human readable. Useful for testing or debugging.

  Example:

  Shows how to pass an option to export HTML tags in a well spaced, human readable format.

  Document doc = new Document(getMyDir() + "Document.docx");
  
  // Enabling the PrettyFormat setting will export HTML in an indented format that is easy to read
  // If this is setting is false (by default) then the HTML tags will be exported in condensed form with no indentation
  HtmlSaveOptions htmlOptions = new HtmlSaveOptions(SaveFormat.HTML);
  htmlOptions.setPrettyFormat(isPrettyFormat);
  
  doc.save(getArtifactsDir() + "Document.SaveHtmlPrettyFormat.html", htmlOptions);

• getSaveFormat/setSaveFormat

  public abstract int getSaveFormat() / public abstract void setSaveFormat(int value)
  

  Specifies the format in which the document will be saved if this save options object is used. The value of the property is SaveFormat integer constant.

  Example:

  Shows how to convert a document to EPUB with save options specified.

  // Open an existing document from disk
  Document doc = new Document(getMyDir() + "Rendering.docx");
  
  // Create a new instance of HtmlSaveOptions. This object allows us to set options that control
  // how the output document is saved
  HtmlSaveOptions saveOptions = new HtmlSaveOptions();
  
  // Specify the desired encoding
  saveOptions.setEncoding(Charset.forName("UTF-8"));
  
  // Specify at what elements to split the internal HTML at. This creates a new HTML within the EPUB
  // which allows you to limit the size of each HTML part. This is useful for readers which cannot read
  // HTML files greater than a certain size e.g 300kb
  saveOptions.setDocumentSplitCriteria(DocumentSplitCriteria.HEADING_PARAGRAPH);
  
  // Specify that we want to export document properties
  saveOptions.setExportDocumentProperties(true);
  
  // Specify that we want to save in EPUB format
  saveOptions.setSaveFormat(SaveFormat.EPUB);
  
  // Export the document as an EPUB file
  doc.save(getArtifactsDir() + "Document.Doc2EpubSaveOptions.epub", saveOptions);

• getTempFolder/setTempFolder

  public java.lang.String getTempFolder() / public void setTempFolder(java.lang.String value)
  

  Specifies the folder for temporary files used when saving to a DOC or DOCX file. By default this property is null and no temporary files are used.

  When Aspose.Words saves a document, it needs to create temporary internal structures. By default, these internal structures are created in memory and the memory usage spikes for a short period while the document is being saved. When saving is complete, the memory is freed and reclaimed by the garbage collector.

  If you are saving a very large document (thousands of pages) and/or processing many documents at the same time, then the memory spike during saving can be significant enough to cause the system to throw System.OutOfMemoryException. Specifying a temporary folder using TempFolder will cause Aspose.Words to keep the internal structures in temporary files instead of memory. It reduces the memory usage during saving, but will decrease the save performance.

  The folder must exist and be writable, otherwise an exception will be thrown.

  Aspose.Words automatically deletes all temporary files when saving is complete.

  Example:

  Shows how to save a document using temporary files.

  Document doc = new Document(getMyDir() + "Rendering.docx");
  
  // We can use a SaveOptions object to set the saving method of a document from a MemoryStream to temporary files
  // While saving, the files will briefly pop up in the folder we set as the TempFolder attribute below
  // Doing this will free up space in the memory that the stream would usually occupy
  DocSaveOptions options = new DocSaveOptions();
  options.setTempFolder(getArtifactsDir() + "TempFiles");
  
  // Ensure that the directory exists and save
  new File(options.getTempFolder()).mkdir();
  
  doc.save(getArtifactsDir() + "DocSaveOptions.TempFolder.doc", options);

• getUpdateFields/setUpdateFields

  public boolean getUpdateFields() / public void setUpdateFields(boolean value)
  

  Gets or sets a value determining if fields of certain types should be updated before saving the document to a fixed page format. Default value for this property is true.

  Allows to specify whether to mimic or not MS Word behavior.

  Example:

  Shows how to update fields before saving into a PDF document.

  Document doc = new Document();
  DocumentBuilder builder = new DocumentBuilder(doc);
  
  // Insert two pages of text, including two fields that will need to be updated to display an accurate value
  builder.write("Page ");
  builder.insertField("PAGE", "");
  builder.write(" of ");
  builder.insertField("NUMPAGES", "");
  builder.insertBreak(BreakType.PAGE_BREAK);
  builder.writeln("Hello World!");
  
  PdfSaveOptions options = new PdfSaveOptions();
  options.setUpdateFields(doUpdateFields);
  
  // PdfSaveOptions objects can be cloned
  Assert.assertNotSame(options, options.deepClone());
  
  doc.save(getArtifactsDir() + "PdfSaveOptions.UpdateFields.pdf", options);

• getUpdateLastPrintedProperty/setUpdateLastPrintedProperty

  public boolean getUpdateLastPrintedProperty() / public void setUpdateLastPrintedProperty(boolean value)
  

  Gets or sets a value determining whether the BuiltInDocumentProperties.LastPrinted property is updated before saving.

  Example:

  Shows how to update BuiltInDocumentProperties.LastPrinted property before saving.

  Document doc = new Document();
  
  // Aspose.Words update BuiltInDocumentProperties.LastPrinted property by default
  DocSaveOptions saveOptions = new DocSaveOptions();
  saveOptions.setUpdateLastPrintedProperty(isUpdateLastPrintedProperty);
  
  doc.save(getArtifactsDir() + "DocSaveOptions.UpdateLastPrintedProperty.docx", saveOptions);

• getUpdateLastSavedTimeProperty/setUpdateLastSavedTimeProperty

  public boolean getUpdateLastSavedTimeProperty() / public void setUpdateLastSavedTimeProperty(boolean value)
  

  Gets or sets a value determining whether the BuiltInDocumentProperties.LastSavedTime property is updated before saving.

  Example:

  Shows how to update a document time property when you want to save it.

  Document doc = new Document(getMyDir() + "Document.docx");
  
  // Get last saved time
  Date documentTimeBeforeSave = doc.getBuiltInDocumentProperties().getLastSavedTime();
  
  OoxmlSaveOptions saveOptions = new OoxmlSaveOptions();
  saveOptions.setUpdateLastSavedTimeProperty(true);
  
  doc.save(getArtifactsDir() + "OoxmlSaveOptions.UpdatingLastSavedTimeDocument.docx", saveOptions);

• getUpdateSdtContent/setUpdateSdtContent

  public boolean getUpdateSdtContent() / public void setUpdateSdtContent(boolean value)
  

  Gets or sets value determining whether content of StructuredDocumentTag is updated before saving.

  The default value is true.

  Example:

  Shows how structured document tags can be updated while saving to .pdf.

  Document doc = new Document();
  
  // Insert two StructuredDocumentTags; a date and a drop down list
  StructuredDocumentTag tag = new StructuredDocumentTag(doc, SdtType.DATE, MarkupLevel.BLOCK);
  tag.setFullDate(new Date());
  
  doc.getFirstSection().getBody().appendChild(tag);
  
  tag = new StructuredDocumentTag(doc, SdtType.DROP_DOWN_LIST, MarkupLevel.BLOCK);
  tag.getListItems().add(new SdtListItem("Value 1"));
  tag.getListItems().add(new SdtListItem("Value 2"));
  tag.getListItems().add(new SdtListItem("Value 3"));
  tag.getListItems().setSelectedValue(tag.getListItems().get(1));
  
  doc.getFirstSection().getBody().appendChild(tag);
  
  // We've selected default values for both tags
  // We can save those values in the document without immediately updating the tags, leaving them in their default state
  // by using a SaveOptions object with this flag set
  PdfSaveOptions options = new PdfSaveOptions();
  options.setUpdateSdtContent(updateSdtContent);
  
  doc.save(getArtifactsDir() + "StructuredDocumentTag.UpdateSdtContent.pdf", options);

• getUseAntiAliasing/setUseAntiAliasing

  public boolean getUseAntiAliasing() / public void setUseAntiAliasing(boolean value)
  

  Gets or sets a value determining whether or not to use anti-aliasing for rendering.
