can we delete a paragraph or a table from a document ? Are there any examples ?

docx4j gives you exactly what it finds in the document.xml part (unzip your docx to have a look). What you see on the document surface in the Word (or for that matter, LibreOffice/OpenOffice) GUI, may be simpler than what that program actually creates at the XML level.

If you were creating the content in docx4j, you'd likely do it as you describe.

Have a look in the styles part (styles.xml). There you'll see, for example:


<w:style w:type="paragraph" w:styleId="Heading1">
<w:name w:val="heading 1"/>

Hi,
I have to update the p:sldMasterId node in p:sldMasterIdLst of presentation.xml. I'm using the code below to achieve it but getting the two sldMasterId in the resulting xml. Please help me out here.

//Code used
PresentationMLPackage.load(new java.io.File("test.pptx")).getMainPresentationPart().addSlideMasterIdListEntry(SlideMasterPart);

//Resulting presentation.xml
<p:sldMasterIdLst>
<p:sldMasterId r:id="rId1" id="2147483660" />
<p:sldMasterId r:id="rId5" id="2800656621" />
</p:sldMasterIdLst>

Highlighted part should not be present.

I need to get all the w:p (ListParagraphs) when converting from docx to xhtml.

Has anyone got any tips for doing this? I can render them individually but I would like to render the complete list under another tag such as a separate div or ul?

Thanks

Hello,
I am a very new user to docx4j. It's has great potential for allowing our users to author documents/articles in Word without having to touch an XML editor.

One problem that I need to solve is that I think I need a package: org.docx4j.convert.out.xml (similar to .....html) that will allow custom conversion from docx to our proprietary XML format.

I have been trying to use org.docx4j.convert.out.html.HtmlExporterNG2 with the sample class org.docx4j.samples.ConvertOutHtml and I have ...

I have been facing an issue when I try to copy the header from a given template to an existing document. However, the problem is seen only with headers that are more complex than a simple text header. I have attached a sample dotx file containing the header and when I try to run the code I have written, it shows only part of the header (in this case, the line underneath it). The surprising ...

Can I get the style of text object directly or can I get the paragraph for text object?
or should I traverse and keep the paragraph for each text to get the style from ?

Paragraph properties are stored at the paragraph level; run properties are stored at the run level (w:r) parent of w:t.

Depending what you are trying to do, you should probably traverse and keep the paragraph and/or run properties.

also, sometimes ...

Paragraphs which aren't styled use the default paragraph style (ie Normal).

Just check getPPr()!=null before doing getPStyle()

docx4j gives you access to everything in the docx (except for mc:AlternateContent/mc:Choice which is pre-filtered) provided it is valid according to the schema.

Can I get flow chart objects information ?

Per above, yes. Exactly how depends on how you have made your flow chart. Unzip your docx and look at its document.xml. What you see is likely to be ugly...
