Insert picture in word document

First, I would like to point out the example provided by apache poi - Link, i.e. the correct way to do it would be

doc.createParagraph().createRun().addPicture(new FileInputStream(imgFile), format, imgFile, Units.toEMU(200), Units.toEMU(200));

However, there is still an existing bug which renders the .docx file unreadable after executing the above statement. It might be resolved soon, in which case the above-mentioned statement will do the work. For the meantime, there is a work-around.

First, generate the docx file without any pictures. Then add this class CustomXWPFDocument to your package.

import org.apache.poi.xwpf.usermodel.XWPFDocument;
import org.apache.xmlbeans.XmlException;
import org.apache.xmlbeans.XmlToken;
import org.openxmlformats.schemas.drawingml.x2006.main.CTNonVisualDrawingProps;
import org.openxmlformats.schemas.drawingml.x2006.main.CTPositiveSize2D;
import org.openxmlformats.schemas.drawingml.x2006.wordprocessingDrawing.CTInline;

import java.io.IOException;
import java.io.InputStream;

public class CustomXWPFDocument extends XWPFDocument
{
    public CustomXWPFDocument(InputStream in) throws IOException
    {
        super(in);
    }

    public void createPicture(String blipId,int id, int width, int height)
    {
        final int EMU = 9525;
        width *= EMU;
        height *= EMU;
        //String blipId = getAllPictures().get(id).getPackageRelationship().getId();


        CTInline inline = createParagraph().createRun().getCTR().addNewDrawing().addNewInline();

        String picXml = "" +
                "<a:graphic xmlns:a=\"http://schemas.openxmlformats.org/drawingml/2006/main\">" +
                "   <a:graphicData uri=\"http://schemas.openxmlformats.org/drawingml/2006/picture\">" +
                "      <pic:pic xmlns:pic=\"http://schemas.openxmlformats.org/drawingml/2006/picture\">" +
                "         <pic:nvPicPr>" +
                "            <pic:cNvPr id=\"" + id + "\" name=\"Generated\"/>" +
                "            <pic:cNvPicPr/>" +
                "         </pic:nvPicPr>" +
                "         <pic:blipFill>" +
                "            <a:blip r:embed=\"" + blipId + "\" xmlns:r=\"http://schemas.openxmlformats.org/officeDocument/2006/relationships\"/>" +
                "            <a:stretch>" +
                "               <a:fillRect/>" +
                "            </a:stretch>" +
                "         </pic:blipFill>" +
                "         <pic:spPr>" +
                "            <a:xfrm>" +
                "               <a:off x=\"0\" y=\"0\"/>" +
                "               <a:ext cx=\"" + width + "\" cy=\"" + height + "\"/>" +
                "            </a:xfrm>" +
                "            <a:prstGeom prst=\"rect\">" +
                "               <a:avLst/>" +
                "            </a:prstGeom>" +
                "         </pic:spPr>" +
                "      </pic:pic>" +
                "   </a:graphicData>" +
                "</a:graphic>";

        //CTGraphicalObjectData graphicData = inline.addNewGraphic().addNewGraphicData();
        XmlToken xmlToken = null;
        try
        {
            xmlToken = XmlToken.Factory.parse(picXml);
        }
        catch(XmlException xe)
        {
            xe.printStackTrace();
        }
        inline.set(xmlToken);
        //graphicData.set(xmlToken);

        inline.setDistT(0);
        inline.setDistB(0);
        inline.setDistL(0);
        inline.setDistR(0);

        CTPositiveSize2D extent = inline.addNewExtent();
        extent.setCx(width);
        extent.setCy(height);

        CTNonVisualDrawingProps docPr = inline.addNewDocPr();
        docPr.setId(id);
        docPr.setName("Picture " + id);
        docPr.setDescr("Generated");
    }
}

Then, create the updated document by adding your pictures like this :-

CustomXWPFDocument document = new CustomXWPFDocument(new FileInputStream(new File("C:\\Users\\Avarice\\Desktop\\doc1.docx")));
        FileOutputStream fos = new FileOutputStream(new File("C:\\Users\\Avarice\\Desktop\\doc2.docx"));
        String id = document.addPictureData(new FileInputStream(new File("C:\\Users\\Avarice\\Desktop\\thumbnail.jpg")), Document.PICTURE_TYPE_JPEG);
        document.createPicture(id,document.getNextPicNameNumber(Document.PICTURE_TYPE_JPEG), 64, 64);
        document.write(fos);
        fos.flush();
        fos.close();

You should also have the following jars in your build path:-

poi-ooxml-schemas

xmlbeans

dom4j

    I have used poi 3.10 to generate word doc and to insert a picture. you need 2 classes.. here is the example
