Hi I am merging XML data into a docx template. But when I save the merged data into a pdf there are alignment issues.

I have a table which is right alligned in the docx template. when I merge it with XML the resulting docx file has proper alignment of all content containers but when saved as pdf the table is left aligned instead of being aligned to the right. And I also have border ...

I am trying to implement a Signature Block in a docx file using DocX4J. We have already implemented the rest of the document generation based on content using DocX4J and now we would like to add signature blocks. In docx a signature block looks like the following:

<w:p w:rsidR="00A82DB1" w:rsidRDefault="006071C7">
<w:r>
<w:pict>
<v:shapetype id="_x0000_t75" coordsize="21600,21600" o:spt="75" o:preferrelative="t" path="m@4@5l@4@11@9@11@9@5xe" filled="f" stroked="f">
<v:stroke joinstyle="miter"/>
<v:formulas>
<v:f eqn="if lineDrawn pixelLineWidth 0"/>
<v:f eqn="sum @0 1 0"/>
<v:f eqn="sum ...

I created the repeating content controls as mentioned in this https://github.com/plutext/docx4j/blob/ ... nDoPE.docx file. But I am not able to merge XML data into the table. I can merge other field data but not the tabular. If I add data for the table in the XML I juts get the header row of the table in output docx file all other rows will disappear.

I want to add a checkbox replacing a bookmark.
I am able to replace a bookmark by text following the sample provided in github but how do we replace with a checkbox?
I tried with
run = factory.createR()
CTFFCheckbox c=new CTFFCheckbox();
run.getContent().add(factory.createcTFFDatacheckbox(c));

I'm building an application which reads in a docx template, modifies it, and then writes the modified docx file out. All that works fine. However, I also need to export it to pdf which is where the proverbial "wheels come off". I am using Mac OS X El Capitan and JBoss Developer Studio 9. The problem seems to involve fonts but I'm not sure what. One message that logs out is to delete the fop-font.cache ...

OpenMainDocumentAndTraverse is frequently referenced in the documentation and samples as the sample to see how TraversalUtil works.
However, it is missing from the samples directory and links to it are dead.
Where can it be found or where else is TraversalUtil explained?

Hi there.

Thanks for docx4j, I'm using it for a simple program so far and it work well.
Now it is time for slightly more complex program and a third project is in the pipeline.

The existing program was rather simple as I simply appended pictures and other content to the end of a template (actually a regular .docx).
For the second one I need to add pictures at various places inside a template document. ...

Hello I am trying to add comment to a docx document if a table is not having caption in its immediate next paragraph tag.
code
public boolean validateTableForCaption(Tbl table) throws Exception{
int index = content.indexOf(table.getParent());
//check immediate next element is paragraph containing caption
Object nextContent = content.get(++index);

if(nextContent instanceof P){
P nextPara = (P) nextContent;
PPr paraProperties = nextPara.getPPr();
if(paraProperties == null){
return false;
}else{
PStyle style = paraProperties.getPStyle();
if(style == null){
return false;
}else ...

on a document contacting the below structure, FieldRef generates an infinite recursion when FieldUpdater is called with "update(true)"
at line 304:

Code: Select all

            FieldRef nested = (FieldRef)o;
            log.error("Nested field " + nested.getFldName() );            


at that stage the "o" object is the same as the "nested" one, quite easy to fix...

Here is the XML structure generating the problem:

<w:r>
<w:fldChar w:fldCharType="begin"/>
</w:r>
<w:r>
<w:instrText xml:space="preserve"> TC </w:instrText>
</w:r>
<w:r>
<w:fldChar w:fldCharType="begin"/>
</w:r>

I recently encountered a problem with XHTML import. There was a table that was causing an ArrayIndexOutOfBoundsException exception in importXHTML, https://github.com/plutext/docx4j-ImportXHTML/blob/master/src/main/java/org/docx4j/convert/in/xhtml/TableHelper.java#L209.

There's a loop:

Code: Select all

for (int i=1; i<=cssTable.numEffCols(); i++)

Shouldn't it be

Code: Select all

for (int i=0; i<cssTable.numEffCols(); i++)

?

The table in question was:

<div class="row section">
<div class="col-md-12">
<table>
<tbody>
<tr>
<td>
<table style="width: 100%; float: left;" cellspacing="0">
<tbody>
<tr>
<td style="width: 270px; text-align: left; vertical-align: top;">
<span style="color: #993300; font-size: 10pt;">
<strong>
<span style="font-size: 12pt;"> ...
