styles - Relationship problem

[jecmenb]

Hi all.
I have a small problem with setting bold font style in document.
I have WordprocessingMLPackage this.wmlPack and I'm trying this:

Code: Select all

    P p = this.wmlPack.getMainDocumentPart().createParagraphOfText("text");
    BooleanDefaultTrue b = new BooleanDefaultTrue();
    b.setVal(true);
    p.getPPr().getRPr().setB(b);
            
    this.wmlPack.getMainDocumentPart().addObject(p);

But log says this:

Loading part /word/styles.xml
Convenience method established from /word/document.xml to /word/styles.xml
.. added.
No relationships word/_rels/styles.xml.rels
word/styles.xml false
[Content_Types].xml false
word/_rels/document.xml.rels false
word/document.xml false
_rels/.rels false


Could you advise me please, how correctly use bold, underline or italic font in document?
I'm using docx4j v2.0 release.

Thanks, Bob.

Hi

Pls disregard the debug you saw.

If you have a look at what Word does in making stuff bold, you'll see:

Code: Select all


<!-- Word 2007 emits this -->

      <w:p>
         <w:pPr>
            <w:rPr>
               <w:b />
            </w:rPr>
         </w:pPr>
         <w:r>
            <w:rPr>
               <w:b />
            </w:rPr>
            <w:t>Bold, done by Word - at both pPr and w:r level</w:t>
         </w:r>
      </w:p>

<!-- Bold, just within the w:r works-->

      <w:p>
         <w:r>
            <w:rPr>
               <w:b />
            </w:rPr>
            <w:t>Bold, just at w:r level</w:t>
         </w:r>
      </w:p>

      <w:p>
         <w:r>
            <w:rPr>
               <w:b w:val="true" />
            </w:rPr>
            <w:t>Bold, just at w:r level, with val="true"</w:t>
         </w:r>
      </w:p>

<!-- Bold, just at the w:pPr doesn't work -->

      <w:p>
         <w:pPr>
            <w:rPr>
               <w:b w:val="true" />
            </w:rPr>
         </w:pPr>
         <w:r>
            <w:t>just pPr/rPr - doesn't work</w:t>
         </w:r>
      </w:p>
      <w:p>
         <w:pPr>
            <w:rPr>
               <w:b />
            </w:rPr>
         </w:pPr>
         <w:r>
            <w:t>just pPr/rPr - doesn't work</w:t>
         </w:r>
      </w:p>



So you can see that you must have w:b in the w:r, and can optionally have it in the w:pPr.

If you use the createParagraphOfText method, you still need to get the w:r in order to set w:b in it.

So its easier not to do that.

The long winded way to do it:

Code: Select all


      org.docx4j.wml.ObjectFactory factory = new org.docx4j.wml.ObjectFactory();
      org.docx4j.wml.P  p = factory.createP();

      org.docx4j.wml.Text  t = factory.createText();
      t.setValue("text");

      org.docx4j.wml.R  run = factory.createR();
      run.getRunContent().add(t);      
      
      p.getParagraphContent().add(run);
      
      
      org.docx4j.wml.RPr rpr = factory.createRPr();      
      org.docx4j.wml.BooleanDefaultTrue b = new org.docx4j.wml.BooleanDefaultTrue();
       b.setVal(true);      
       rpr.setB(b);
      
      run.setRPr(rpr);
      
      // Optionally, set pPr/rPr@w:b      
       org.docx4j.wml.PPr ppr = factory.createPPr(); 
       p.setPPr( ppr );
       org.docx4j.wml.ParaRPr paraRpr = factory.createParaRPr();
       ppr.setRPr(paraRpr);      
       rpr.setB(b);
      
       //    Add it to the doc
       wordMLPackage.getMainDocumentPart().addObject(p);
      


Here is an easier way:

Code: Select all


       String str = "<w:p xmlns:w=\"http://schemas.openxmlformats.org/wordprocessingml/2006/main\" ><w:r><w:rPr><w:b /></w:rPr><w:t>Bold, just at w:r level</w:t></w:r></w:p>";
      
       wordMLPackage.getMainDocumentPart().addObject(
                org.docx4j.XmlUtils.unmarshalString(str) );



fyi, XmlUtils also contains a method unmarshallFromTemplate, which you can use if you need to replace things in the string.


cheers

If you have an existing document with bold fonts, and try your previous code to add a new paragraph, it will work.
Because styles.xml will already have that style defined.
If you are writing a new document and want the style to appear, you have to add the part named styles.xml and then use.

OK, thank you very much, it works good, both ways. It's great.
