News of docx4j

Hello,

I'm trying to use docx4j, but on many files I notice the following error.
I'm using version 2.8.0 and also tried with 2.8.1.

Why does it not recognize element: (uri:"http://schemas.openxmlformats.org/spreadsheetml/2006/main", local:"worksheet") ?
Why also am I seeing the error about RI -- is that related to the version of Java or other dependent jars not matching somehow?

Thanks

Hi,

How difficult would it be to take the comment from a .docx file and use that comment as a class or id on the nearest HTML element? Looking through the old source code it looked like it was possible to add a custom XSLT stylesheet (which would make my task very simple, I think anyway), but that method seems to have been deprecated. Thank you for your time...

I'm using XML bindings with docx4j to generate word docx reports.

In some cases when the XML is big 2 MB ( 40000 lines ) the heap usage goes up 1-2 GB and it takes 50-60 minutes to generate report.
The slowest part is the binding: ( BindingHandler.applyBindings(templateWordPackage.getMainDocumentPart()); )

did a memory profiling:

We are facing a situation where in some cases white spaces are included in the beginning or in the end of a Text element, like " test string ". And we want to preserve those spaces. We decided to put a "space preserve" in every Text element to solve that. Is there any problem with this strategy? Thanks a lot!

Hi Jason,

We now use the nightly build from 20121024 and it solves indeed some of the issues we asked (table row height, font in paragraph,...)
Great!

But after doing some testing we now have the following issues:
- The header and footer take the complete width of the page as before it was keeping the layout as applied in the docx.
- The table at the beginning of our page is put at the ...

Hi,

I have had a good look around but can't seem to find a way to programmatically update a table of contents. The only information I came across is to set a flag which forces an update on open, which does the job but due to the warning message it isn't as clean as I'd like. The documents I'm generating will be sent around to many people and I don't want to cause confusion with ...

Jason,

I am working with mergeFields in a docx document.
I am trying to replace a mergeField in a paragraph with a certain font, Century Gothic size 10. To do this I'm using the latest version of docx4j, 2.8.1.

After the mergeField is replaced the paragraph isn't fully Century Gothic size 10 anymore. The first style, stops after the replaced mergeField, is in Century Gothic size 10. The second part, start immediate after the replaced ...

Hi everyone,
I am performing text substitution, by replacing existing text with new text. While doing so i am deleting existing text completely from a text run. This results into the text run ending with a space, example : <w:t>This is </w:t>
After the word "is" there is a space which does not get displayed in the resulting docx.
When i manually add the property, xml:space="preserve" to this text run, the space gets displayed.
How ...
