Hello all!

I need to fill some form fields programatically and leave others to be filled by the user. Then I found two ways to do this:

1- Change the "Default" value in the form text field. The problem is when the user open this doc (downloaded from a browser) the default value isn't visible, if I open the properties of this field I can see the default value. If I click in "ok" button ...

Thanks for this great library. Do you know if 2.7.0 will support MS Office 2010 version of docx. Any progress on the OpenDoPE Word Add-In (ie will it be promoted from pre-alpha to alpha)?

An updated release candidate (rc2) is now available:

- http://dev.plutext.org/docx4j/docx4j-2.7.0-rc2.jar

- or, including all the jars, http://dev.plutext.org/docx4j/docx4j-2.7.0-rc2.tar.gz

With the exception of the OpenDoPE patches applied, the changes are all minor. For details, see http://dev.plutext.org/trac/docx4j/timeline changesets 1575 to 1590.

As per the previous rc, comments and feedback welcome.

In the absence of issues, this will become the docx4j ...

docx4j is intended to run on Java 1.5 (provided JAXB RI is on your path).

To support this, in the 2.7.0 release candidate maven pom.xml, we have:

<source>1.6</source>
<target>1.5</target>

The objective is to generate a jar which is compatible with Java 1.5, whilst at the same time allowing @Override annotations in the source code on methods which merely implement an interface (Java 6 allows this, but 1.5 gives an error).

When I played around with ...

docx4j 2.7.0 release candidate is now available at http://dev.plutext.org/docx4j/docx4j-2.7.0-rc1.jar

This will form the basis of the 2.7.0 release. In fact, unless there are significant issues over the next week or so, this will become the 2.7.0 release! So please try it out and report back, positive or negative...

It is mainly a maintenance release, but things of note include:

* Improvements to Maven build

* ContentAccessor interface

* AlteredParts: ...

I've been trying to make this work today and have hit what I suspected might be a critical problem. My environment is eclipse, GWT 2.3, GAE SDK 1.5. I wrote a simple servlet that takes no input, builds a new docx using parts of the supplied samples and then attempts to 'save' the output using some code found elsewhere on this forum like this:

SaveToZipFile saver = new SaveToZipFile(wordMLPackage);
try {
saver.save( response.getOutputStream() );
} ...
