News of docx4j

I want to get the effective character formatting for a piece of text (within a <w:r> element). I can use org.docx4j.model.PropertyResolver to resolve its style, even if it's inherited. However, I can't find how to apply formatting from different sources, i.e. the final formatting of a run is the result of applying its manual formatting, its character style, its enclosing paragraph's style, and its enclosing table's style (if it exists), with some extra quirks around ...

Hello all,

Here are a few fixes/enhancements to docx4j seeking inclusion in docx4j. I've divided them into two patches, one for src/main/... and the other for src/diffx/... The first are really fixes, and the second are enhancements to the way text is tokenized when slicing up XML into events. These apply cleanly to today's trunk, r1390.

src/main/java/org/docx4j/convert/out/pdf/viaXSLFO/SymbolWriter.java:

This just replaces some characters in one of the comments. '\205' -> "..."
and '\222' ...

When reading a normal docx with just a few paragraphs, tables, header + footer and two images, I get an error:

Code: Select all

ERROR: XmlUtils: javax.xml.transform.TransformerFactoryConfigurationError: Provider org.apache.xalan.processor.TransformerFactoryImpl not found (XmlUtils.java, line 131)

However, the file parses fine, but what is this dependency about? If I do add xalan-2.7.1.jar I can read the file without errors occuring, but the save method throws a no class found exception:

Exception in thread "main" java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: org/apache/xml/serializer/TreeWalker

I need to search the header and footer parts of a template for bookmarks and replace the surrounding P with new text. I get the parts like this:

headerPart = (HeaderPart)wordMLPackage.getParts().get(new PartName("/word/header2.xml"));

How come, and what causes headers and footers to split into several xml documents? Doing small changes in the template changes the number of xml files, how am I supposed to know which xml-file to read without using trial and error? I basicly ...

Hello,

I've got a document with marcos in the document_open section. The problem is that I want to merge this document with another after the macros were executed and without opening the document with word 2007.

Is there a possibility to "execute" the marcos from the outside with docx4j?

kind regards
Lars

Hello,

I'm trying to add row height property in my table.
I created TrPr object with the factory.

But properties/methods for TrPr don't seem appropriate or complete. It refers to change tracking.
(getIns, getDel, TrPrChange).

No getter/setter to add trHeight property, which is the one I have in my sample doc.

Hi all,

I've got a document with different activeX elements. Is there a possiblity to read the value of these elements with docx4j? e.g. the text of an activeX textfield? Loading and manipulating of the documents works good, but i've got no idea how to read these elements.

kind regards,
Lars

Hi,

I have converted an old .doc document to .docx format by Word 2010, and some OLE objects and perhaps other complex content were enclosed in tag "mc:AlternateContent".

Docx4j can parse the docx file, but the AlternateContent tags are ignored, so we are not even able to notice that such content is there. This is a problem for our conversion from docx to another format - we do not want to convert the content of ...

Hi -

The WordprocessingML spec indicates that table captions should be found in the "tblCaption" child of "TblPr", but in docx4j 2.6.0 I'm not finding a tblCaption (or similar) member in that class. Are table captions supported in docx4j 2.6.0?

Thanks for a great tool!


Cheers

Hi,

I have a problem with white spaces in my white spaces.
I am constructing Paragraphs with different text elements using the Object Factory. However, it seems, that text elements kill the white spaces before and after my sentence. For example:

"My Name is " + "Pandaa" is using two different text elements, because "Pandaa" has to be in a different font and being of italic style, this sentence translates to:
"My Name isPandaa" in ...
