News of docx4j

Hi Jason,

It's great to see the maven build work now, but there is a run time dependency missing batik-uil, you probably need to add the following to your pom file.

Code: Select all

<dependency>
      <groupId>batik</groupId>
      <artifactId>batik-util</artifactId>
      <version>1.6</version>                
</dependency>

Hi all,

I have a requirement to parse a docx file, looking for user-supplied tags and substitute images or text.

As noted in the getting started guide, searching for text is problematic because the text could be broken across multiple runs.

I'm wondering if there's a way to (using Word) insert some sort of tag that's easy to parse for in the XML (using docx4j).

One possible solution I found: Insert a hidden HTML element. ...

Hi Guys,

Hi all,

New to docx4j, new to JAXB.

I want to remove some text and, in that place, add an image.

Looking at the samples and quick start guide, I've managed to open my docx file and find the text node(s) using xpath.

I've got the JAXB text nodes .. I just don't know what to do now.

Should I delete the existing text node and insert a new paragraph node? Should I change the ...

Hi all

I've put together a survey which should provide an insight into the needs of docx4j users, which will in turn help me to evolve docx4j to better meet your needs.

Please take 15 mins or so to complete the survey. It can be found at http://www.plutext.com/limesurvey/index.php?sid=64431&lang=en

Even if you have just started using docx4j, your response would be valuable (first impressions matter)

Thanks very much.

kind regards

Jason

Is there any way to set the font name for the default styles such as Title, Normal and Heading1?

Currently I am doing:

WordprocessingMLPackage wordMLPackage = WordprocessingMLPackage.createPackage();

StyleDefinitionsPart sdp = mp.getStyleDefinitionsPart ();

Map<String, Style> styles = sdp.getKnownStyles ();

Style titleS = styles.get (NORMAL);

if (titleS != null)
{

// Get the rpr.
RPr rpr = titleS.getRPr ();

if (rpr == null)
{

rpr = ...

Hello,

I've successfully converted my docx to a PDF file, but I have some questions about the result:
1- Some log4j warnings appeared on the result file.
- I've downloaded the log4j.xml file from "src/main/resources", put it in my classpath, added "-log4j.configuration=lib/log4j.xml" to my VM args and then included in the file:

Code: Select all

<logger name="org.docx4j.convert.out.pdf.viaXSLFO">
   <level value="info"/>
</logger>


However, that didn't make the warnings disappear. What else I need to do?

2- On the ...
