Can someone provide me solution on java code how to merge two docx OR HOW TO CONVERT PDF TO DOCX.

@karthickm2078 Thanks for the solution karthi, since we have already move on with another solution of using Qoppa for Conversion. We need only one jar but we need to buy license keys from qoppa.

@Muthuvelkumaran Hi Muthuvel,
Create a java function for conversation from DOCx to PDF. only thing is we need to have all below jars in PEGA
Apache POI 3.15
org.apache.poi.xwpf.converter.core-1.0.6.jar
org.apache.poi.xwpf.converter.pdf-1.0.6.jar
fr.opensagres.xdocreport.itext.extension-2.0.0.jar
itext-2.1.7.jar
ooxml-schemas-1.3.jar
Note: Please cross verify whether this jar are already exist. if yes straight forward to build the fucntion
sample below :
public static void main(String[] args) {
WordConvertPDF cwoWord = new WordConvertPDF();
cwoWord.ConvertToPDF("D:/Test.docx", "D:/Test.pdf");
}
public void ConvertToPDF(String docPath, String pdfPath) {
try {
InputStream doc = new FileInputStream(new File(docPath));
XWPFDocument document = new XWPFDocument(doc);
PdfOptions options = PdfOptions.create();
OutputStream out = new FileOutputStream(new File(pdfPath));
PdfConverter.getInstance().convert(document, out, options);Accepted Solution

@karthickm2078 Hi, I am trying the same. I want to convert a generated Word File (.docx) from a Word-Template in a PDF File. I have already implemented and tested a simple Java Code with the POI Dependencies. My Java Code is a Maven Project. How can I integrate my written Java in Pega, so that I can use the Code to convert the docx in a step to a pdf. Thanks

@SinanH45 Hi, If your code already ready in JAVA, if it executable then it is simpler to make that to convert in java. Keep always this in mind
1) Having all the libraries in PEGA ( Whatever library you are using in JAVA, same libraries should be imported in Pega)
2) instead of creating direct JAVA code, check the Java API and make it convert your code in Function where u can pass simple param to convert
For example : File name and type
3) then always to debug add a stack trace in code, since it is java we need to debug for long..
Another ways :
