Introducing the Docx4jHelper AddIn

[jason]

Introducing a Word AddIn so you can:

• View Open XML right from within Word, and see what happens when you edit it.
• Generate corresponding docx4j Java code, with deep links into the corresponding docx4j source code and Open XML spec.

To download and for more info, please see http://www.docx4java.org/blog/2014/12/d ... ord-addin/

If you are a Plutext customer experiencing an issue, please email support@plutext.com

Otherwise, please check the Docx4jHelper AddIn forum: forum30/

We’ve got some ideas for where the AddIn goes from here, but we’d love to hear yours

If I want to install the addIn I get an error:

An error occurred trying to download 'http://plutext.com/downloads/Docx4jHelper/Docx4jHelper.vsto'.

Unless that was a one-off connectivity issue, your firewall or proxy is probably blocking attempts to download files with extension vsto.

Google 'blocking clickonce install firewall OR proxy'

Is there a way to manually download this and manually install the addon? I'm behind a firewall at work and it stops at the same place
(An error occurred trying to download 'http://plutext.com/downloads/Docx4jHelper/Docx4jHelper.vsto').
Thank you!

Here's an installer:

http://www.plutext.com/dn/downloads/142 ... taller.exe
Updated link 20150224

Please note that if this installer detects that you need Visual Studio Tools for Office 2010 runtime to be installed (which is quite likely), it will offer to download that from Microsoft. If this proves to be a problem, we can look at removing the pre-req check.

Let me know how it goes (in a new thread please!).

Hi there, I tried to download the addin from http://www.plutext.com/dn/downloads/142 ... 1426216658, but I got a HTTP Status 410 - Gone error. Can you give me a working URL? Thanks!

Hi Jason,

After I installed the add-in, I encountered the following error:



Please advise. Thanks!

Hi socko

I haven't seen that before.

What version of Word (and 32 or 64 bit)

What version of Windows (and 32 or 64 bit)

Had you previously been using the now expired version of the AddIn happily? Do you have other addins installed?

Can you post the rest of the exception please. (Is there an inner exception?)

The following might be relevant/helpful:

Im using Office 2013 64-bit running on Windows 8.1 64-bit.

I didn't install any other add-ins.
