Text Import feature

Plain Text Format is a basic format that does not require advanced text processor viewing or editing, However, some plain text files try to prove more complex formats such as lists and indents. For example, a list can be represented as a series of lines that start with the same characters.

Aspose.words attempts to detect and load some features into a new document such as equivalent Microsoft Word functionality instead of plain text.

The following table shows the key features of the text import engine:

Feature	Details
Text encoding	The following encoding is supported: Latin1 Bigendianunicode UTF-16 UTF-7 UTF-8
Import of ordered lists	1.Arabic number with dot or right parenthesis e.g 1. or 2). Multilevel list is supported only supported when using DOT. 2.Uppercase or lowercase Latin letter with dot or right parenthesis e.g a. or b).
Import of unordered lists	Unordered lists is imported from consecutive lines which start with any of the following characters: *,--, O,.
Paragraph Indentation	Left indent and first line indent is detected and imported for paragraphs using appropriate number space characters at th E beginning of the paragraph.
Paragraph detection	Rules for detecting a new paragraph start: 1.If Next line left indent is ' t equal with the current paragraph's left indent. 2.An empty line starts a new paragraph. 3.Any list detected starts a new paragraph.

The text file is loaded into the aspose result, saved as the following document.

Note that the preceding space is interpreted as indentation, and the list is loaded with the appropriate list feature.
