Thanks Mathias,

I am doing this as part of a j2ee application so I guess I would need to use
the GraphicExporter as your suggest and iterate over the pages. I assume
this would allow me to export each page including its text and graphics as
an image?

Peter Eberlein kindly suggested embedding a doc-file into an empty draw
document as an OLE-object and then exporting the draw document as a tiff but
I'm not sure if I can do this programmatically yet.

Any ideas which approach would be best?

Regards,

Andy.

That might work in the limits the pdf import filter sets. And you have
to export each page individually, either by selecting the pages in the
view and export the file (will export current page only) or by using the
GraphicExporter and iterating over pages.

It would be better and easier to render arbitrary parts of a document to
any graphical format (also by iterating over the pages). I think it's
possible, but I have to try it out before I can post the code here.

Regards,
Mathias
