There are many reasons why you might need to convert Word documents to images. For example, a lot of devices can open and display images directly without any special software, and when images are transmitted their content is difficult to be tampered with. In this article, you will learn how to convert Word to popular image formats such as JPG, PNG and SVG using Spire.Doc for Java.

Install Spire.Doc for Java
First, you're required to add the Spire.Doc.jar file as a dependency in your Java program. The JAR file can be downloaded from this link. If you use Maven, you can easily import the JAR file in your application by adding the following code to your project's pom.xml file.

Convert Word to JPG in Java
Spire.Doc for Java offers the Document.saveToImages() method to convert a whole Word document into individual BufferedImage images. Then, each BufferedImage can be saved as a BMP, EMF, JPEG, PNG, GIF, or WMF file. The following are the steps to convert Word to JPG using this library.
- Create a Document object.
- Load a Word document using Document.loadFromFile() method.
- Convert the document to BufferedImage images using Document.saveToImages() method.
- Loop through the image collection to get the specific one.
- Re-write the image with different color space.
- Write the BufferedImage to a JPG file.
- Java
import com.spire.doc.Document; import com.spire.doc.documents.ImageType; import javax.imageio.ImageIO; import java.awt.image.BufferedImage; import java.io.File; import java.io.IOException; public class ConvertWordToJPG { public static void main(String[] args) throws IOException { //Create a Document object Document doc = new Document(); //Load a Word document doc.loadFromFile("C:\\Users\\Administrator\\Desktop\\ConvertTemplate.docx"); //Convert the whole document into individual buffered images BufferedImage[] images = doc.saveToImages(ImageType.Bitmap); //Loop through the images for (int i = 0; i < images.length; i++) { //Get the specific image BufferedImage image = images[i]; //Re-write the image with a different color space BufferedImage newImg = new BufferedImage(image.getWidth(), image.getHeight(), BufferedImage.TYPE_INT_RGB); newImg.getGraphics().drawImage(image, 0, 0, null); //Write to a JPG file File file = new File("C:\\Users\\Administrator\\Desktop\\Images\\" + String.format(("Image-%d.jpg"), i)); ImageIO.write(newImg, "JPEG", file); } } }
Convert Word to SVG in Java
Using Spire.Doc for Java, you can save a Word document as a list of byte arrays. Each byte array can then be written as a SVG file. The detailed steps to convert Word to SVG are as follows.
- Create a Document object.
- Load a Word file using Document.loadFromFile() method.
- Save the document as a list of byte arrays using Document.saveToSVG() method.
- Loop through the items in the list to get a specific byte array.
- Write the byte array to a SVG file.
- Java
import com.spire.doc.Document; import java.io.FileOutputStream; import java.io.IOException; import java.util.List; public class ConvertWordToSVG { public static void main(String[] args) throws IOException { //Create a Document object Document doc = new Document(); //Load a Word document doc.loadFromFile("C:\\Users\\Administrator\\Desktop\\ConvertTemplate.docx"); //Save the document as a list of byte arrays List<byte[]> svgBytes = doc.saveToSVG(); //Loop through the items in the list for (int i = 0; i < svgBytes.size(); i++) { //Get a specific byte array byte[] byteArray = svgBytes.get(i); //Specify the output file name String outputFile = String.format("Image-%d.svg", i); //Write the byte array to a SVG file try (FileOutputStream stream = new FileOutputStream("C:\\Users\\Administrator\\Desktop\\Images\\" + outputFile)) { stream.write(byteArray); } } } }
Convert Word to PNG with Customized Resolution
An image with higher resolution is generally more clear. You can customize the image resolution while converting Word to PNG by following the following steps.
- Create a Document object.
- Load a Word file using Document.loadFromFile() method.
- Convert the document to BufferedImage images with the specified resolution using Document.saveToImages() method.
- Loop through the image collection to get the specific one and save it as a PNG file.
- Java
import com.spire.doc.Document; import com.spire.doc.documents.ImageType; import javax.imageio.ImageIO; import java.awt.image.BufferedImage; import java.io.File; import java.io.IOException; public class ConvertWordToPNG { public static void main(String[] args) throws IOException { //Create a Document object Document doc = new Document(); //Load a Word document doc.loadFromFile("C:\\Users\\Administrator\\Desktop\\ConvertTemplate.docx"); //Convert the whole document into individual buffered images with customized resolution BufferedImage[] images = doc.saveToImages(0, doc.getPageCount(), ImageType.Bitmap, 150, 150); //Loop through the images for (int i = 0; i < images.length; i++) { //Get the specific image BufferedImage image = images[i]; //Write to a PNG file File file = new File("C:\\Users\\Administrator\\Desktop\\Images\\" + String.format(("Image-%d.png"), i)); ImageIO.write(image, "PNG", file); } } }
