News of docx4j

Great library! Working well for me so far. I'm using the in-built functionality to map some "fields" (i.e. the ${TAG_NAME} syntax) in a template Word document to values derived from my underlying database. The technique I'm using for this is per the samples, i.e.

Code: Select all

Object obj = XmlUtils.unmarshallFromTemplate(xml, mappings);
XmlUtils.marshaltoString(obj, true);
content.setJaxbElement((org.docx4j.wml.Document) obj);

… and that works really well. What I want to do now is map some of my tag types to HTML. I've ...

Dear Jason,

I have been using docx4j to build database report based upon data retrieved from a database. I am trying to build a table with dynamic content from the database. Because every field has a different length, every column needs to have a custom length. I have not been able to find a way to accomplish this. I have managed to get the data in the table by changing the createTable() method to accept ...

Jason, could you include in 2.7.1, the XMLRootElement ("smartTag") for CTSmartTagRun?

Code: Select all

import javax.xml.bind.annotation.XmlRootElement;
...

@XmlRootElement(name = "smartTag")
public class CTSmartTagRun


Hi Jason,

I have finished the interface for Series in graphics but I need to make some tests (I was really busy).

I am currently working on images and I have seen that we must give an array of bytes in order to add pictures. So I provide you a little patch which allows user to give directly the image path. Then, image is not loaded in memory and there is an improvement of time ...

I have an application to create .docx files. It works perfectly fine on my local PC, but gives error on java-web-start:

java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: org/docx4j/fonts/Mapper

Caused by: java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: org.docx4j.fonts.Mapper

Application gives that error when I click my "create docx" button, other features(my gui, db connections..) still work fine. Clicking the button, application opens an existing docx file, adds a table to it and saves the file on my local PC.

Actually 'missing' class is there in docx4j-2.7.0.jar, ...

Could you remove the auto-configuration of Log4j? It's rather unfortunate of a library to configure my logging for me, especially in a hard-coded way that I cannot easily disable. I think it's not a controversial statement to say that logging is something that should be left to the deployer of the code to decide. What if I wanted to configure logging in my own code so that all logging went to a database or something ...

Please, you help me with a example.

Thanks.

Just getting started with docx4j and finding it very useful. I've run into a hitch with HTML altChunks, though: I'd like the styling of the main document to flow through instead of using the style of the HTML (which is defaulting to Times New Roman etc.).

I've found a post describing an AltChunkProperties found within the Open XML SDK that can be configured to make the altChunk import match the document style:

altChunk = new ...
