export_headers_footers_mode property

HtmlSaveOptions.export_headers_footers_mode property

Specifies how headers and footers are output to HTML, MHTML or EPUB. Default value is ExportHeadersFootersMode.PER_SECTION for HTML/MHTML and ExportHeadersFootersMode.NONE for EPUB.

@property
def export_headers_footers_mode(self) -> aspose.words.saving.ExportHeadersFootersMode:
    ...

@export_headers_footers_mode.setter
def export_headers_footers_mode(self, value: aspose.words.saving.ExportHeadersFootersMode):
    ...

Remarks

It is hard to meaningfully output headers and footers to HTML because HTML is not paginated.

When this property is ExportHeadersFootersMode.PER_SECTION, Aspose.Words exports only primary headers and footers at the beginning and the end of each section.

When it is ExportHeadersFootersMode.FIRST_SECTION_HEADER_LAST_SECTION_FOOTER only first primary header and the last primary footer (including linked to previous) are exported.

You can disable export of headers and footers altogether by setting this property to ExportHeadersFootersMode.NONE.

Examples

Shows how to omit headers/footers when saving a document to HTML.

doc = aw.Document(MY_DIR + "Header and footer types.docx")

# This document contains headers and footers. We can access them via the "headers_footers" collection.
self.assertEqual("First header", doc.first_section.headers_footers[aw.HeaderFooterType.HEADER_FIRST].get_text().strip())

# Formats such as .html do not split the document into pages, so headers/footers will not function the same way
# they would when we open the document as a .docx using Microsoft Word.
# If we convert a document with headers/footers to html, the conversion will assimilate the headers/footers into body text.
# We can use a SaveOptions object to omit headers/footers while converting to html.
save_options = aw.saving.HtmlSaveOptions(aw.SaveFormat.HTML)
save_options.export_headers_footers_mode = aw.saving.ExportHeadersFootersMode.NONE

doc.save(ARTIFACTS_DIR + "HeaderFooter.export_mode.html", save_options)

# Open our saved document and verify that it does not contain the header's text
doc = aw.Document(ARTIFACTS_DIR + "HeaderFooter.export_mode.html")

self.assertNotIn("First header", doc.range.text)
