News of docx4j

According to Getting Started guide the Xalan JAR is only required for HTML and PDF export. I am not using either, however I get a runtime exception when calling XmlUtils.deepCopy():

Exception in thread "Thread-5" javax.xml.transform.TransformerFactoryConfigurationError: Provider org.apache.xalan.processor.TransformerFactoryImpl not found
at javax.xml.transform.TransformerFactory.newInstance(TransformerFactory.java:106)

If I add xalan-patched-2.7.0.jar, deepCopy starts working without throwing any exceptions.

Getting Started says that Commons-VFS is needed for "Saving/loading via WebDAV etc". But it appears that it is used ...

Hi all, I am working on creating a watermark for a document, and I planned to use the unmarshallFromTemplate utility to create the watermark based on markup captured from a working document. But when I try to use it I get the next exception (below). If i create all the components "by hand", everything goes ok and the document gets its watermark. Can anybody help me?

Jason,

Does the issue of character encoding need to be brought up here for when you are loading a WordprocessingMLpackage?

I have a bunch of strings that have been saved into my java program that were scavenged from a word document. I am trying to do some date parsing on some of thee strings, and characters such as "En Dash" are really giving me trouble. I can't seem to figure out how to do the ...

Hi,

I am using docx4j to generate letters based on template using codes from the UnmarshallFromTemplate.java sample. It works great!!!

However I met a problem with word. For example, I typed the following into Word: Dear ${firstName}, after saving it, Word generate the following XML:
<w:t>${</w:t></w:r><w:proofErr w:type="spellStart"/><w:r w:rsidR="00F35EC5"><w:t>firstName</w:t></w:r><w:proofErr w:type="spellEnd"/><w:r w:rsidR="00F35EC5"><w:t>}</w:t></w:r><w:r><w:t>,
You can see the "${" and "firstName" and "}" are separated, just wondering is there any way to avoid this in Word?

Thanks a lot!

I have a template with content controls set to Arial font type. However, after my code processes the document to insert the data and I open that processed document, all the data within the content controls is Times New Roman, not Arial as expected.

I would have thought it would take the font style of the content control, but it doesn't appear to be doing that. Do I have to manually set the font type? ...
