All,

I have very strange scenario in that I have Java Spring Boot application which uses docx4j to read in a docx template, modify the content, and save the result as a docx file. When I start up the application, the first time I generate a document it works correctly. However, if the attempt to generate another one, the resulting document is corrupted, primarily by dropping text boxes and graphic images in the template.

As ...

I'm trying to read the full content of a docx using docx4j and check if all the properties applied to that content are the ones i want it to be.

Especifically i want to check that all the text in the docx is written in Arial, size 12, with double spacing between lines. The style can come applied directly on the run, on the paragraph, as default styling or from custom styles created in the ...

I would like to compare the value of a variable in a conditional statement using XPATH

The field contain the sex and we would like to display "Male" when the value is M and "Female" when the value is F

We have used the following conditional statement

/cats/cat/sex = "M" but nothing was displayed when the input is M

We have tried to change the comparison from string to a number.

/cats/cat/sex = 1 works ...

Hi.

We are using a lot of tables in our WORD-Documents. The Documents are created using DOCX4J and immediately after creating they are converted to HTML (using the code from the samples).

All tables used are Setup with "preferred width = 100%" and the size of the columns is calculated at runtime and also Setup as pct (percentage). Here is the tblpr for the complete table:
TblWidth tblwidth = objectFactory.createTblWidth();
tblwidth.setW( BigInteger.valueOf( 5000) ); ...

I came across certain methods like

Code: Select all

wmlPackage.filter(filterSettings);

Code: Select all

org.docx4j.wml.Document wmlDocumentEl = wmlPackage.getMainDocumentPart().getJaxbElement();

Now in these .filter() and .getJaxbElement() are deprecated. I am using 3.2.1 version of docx4j. Can u please suggest me what would be the replacement method for these. These are just a few and I have 3-4 more for which I need to know the now-recommended methods which currently are deprecated. Although the stuff works but the support might be taken away. Can u ...

I created the attached file file (created_using_docs4j.looks_different_in_Word_2010_vs_2013.docx) using docx4j but it displays differently in Word2010 versus Word2013 - the table is orange in 2010 and green in 2013. Can someone help me understand why?

I tried updating my template file (I use a template file to get all the styles I need) to a .dotx created from Word 2013 (created_using_word.looks_same_in_both_word_versions.docx) - this file looks the same in both 2010 and 2013. When I compare this ...

Currently have started with docxj, but I have a lot problem with a simple example.

In my example I call

WordprocessingMLPackage wordMLPackage = WordprocessingMLPackage.createPackage();
wordMLPackage.save(new java.io.File("hworld.docx") );

An the save throw the exception:

String itemId = "{5448916C-134B-45E6-B8FE-88CC1FFC17C3}".toLowerCase();
CustomXmlDataStoragePart customXmlDataStoragePart = (CustomXmlDataStoragePart)wordMLPackage.getCustomXmlDataStorageParts().get(itemId);
// .. if you don't know the itemId (which you can get using ContentControlsPartsInfo),

I'm still confused on how to get the itemId and I can't seem to find any real info on the "ContentControlsPartsInfo"
