Hi,
I'm new to the docx4j world and this is my first post! :-D
I'm building a small java program to test all the "document related" features i need to cover to fulfill my project requirements. That is, being able to create templates with "content controls" that will offer as raw template to the users. Let the user enhance them, to finally populate them with data. ...

Hello,

I'm trying to use repeats while binding data in docx (ms word 2010, docx4j 2.8.1).
I've installed an OpenDoPE and create a simple document as a template, one content holder bound to repeat.
Processing document, I change xml data to the custom xml.
The result file contains corresponding number of content holders but they contain no data because the corresponding xpath entries doesn't exist.
What I do a wrong way? May be, there is ...

Hi Jason,

I am having an issue setting fonts. It only happens when I use a custom font 'MyFont'. The font was created using a font generating tool. If I use a standard font like Arial Bold no problem.
I am basically modifying the font on a content control using the following code:



// Build a new RFont object
org.docx4j.wml.ObjectFactory factory = new org.docx4j.wml.ObjectFactory();
RFonts rfonts = factory.createRFonts();
rfonts.setAscii(sFontName);
rfonts.setCs(sFontName);
rfonts.setHAnsi(sFontName);

// Locate RPr ...

Hi,

i needed the ability to transform to PDF a docx package using the customXml tag like this ;

Code: Select all

         <w:customXml w:uri="http://xxx"
            w:element="Test">
            <w:customXmlPr>
               <w:attr w:uri="http://xxx" w:name="remove" w:val="false" />
               <w:placeholder w:val="[xxx]" />
            </w:customXmlPr>
            <w:r>
               <w:t xml:space="preserve">Info text : </w:t>
            </w:r>
         </w:customXml>


The xlst does not support this currently. To get the feature, you just need to add the following templates in it ;

Code: Select all

   <xsl:template match="w:customXml">
      <xsl:apply-templates />
   </xsl:template>

   <xsl:template match="w:customXmlPr" />


which will ...

I created a template document using LibreOffice 3.5. If I open the document and try to add an empty table to it using the table factory:

TblFactory.createTable(3, 3, cellWidthTwips);

I get these log messages:

16:09:26,494 ERROR PropertyResolver:1405 - Expected TableNormal to have <w:basedOn ??
16:21:02,390 WARN MainDocumentPart:548 - TableGrid couldn't be activated!

If I use a debugger to change the 'result1' variable in PropertyResolver, the resulting docx file opens just fine In LibreOffice. ...

Hi all

our customers are going to introduce Office2010 and we want to support them with this very good library.
Jason, can you say when word 2010 will be full supported?

I have an issue by searching for Content Controls with xpath on Word 2010 documents.
On 2010 version it doesn't find the Content Control, while for 2007 is ok.
The code is the same for both versions


String xpathSdt = "//w:sdt/w:sdtPr/w:tag";
//String xpathSdt ...

We have an application whereby we are generating html, pdf and csv documents. We have data in XML and we are using XSLT to transform to the appropriate format and write to an outputstream.

Now we are looking to generate .docx and .xslx formats using docx4j. What is the recommended approach for achieving this?

Is there a date for the next release? We are using some features currently contained in the nightly builds, but they are not in the current 2.8.0 release, so we were wondering if there is a date for the next release.

Thank you !
