I have a docx file created using word and filled with mail merge fields (by non-tech users). How do I convert that to use "content controls" so I can dull the pain of mail merge telling me "MailMerger(659) - TODO MERGEFIELD field contained complex instruction". I assume that's MS-Word splitting the merge fields across runs???

when I crack open the xml I see:


<w:r>
<w:instrText xml:space="preserve"> MERGEFIELD Guarantor_1_short_name \* </w:instrText>
</w:r>
<w:r w:rsidRPr="001313F4">
<w:instrText>MERGEFORMAT</w:instrText> ...

Hello,

I've read that it was possible to extract date from a docx file, by selecting data by their style.

Example :
Get all String with the "title1" word style.

I do not find it anymore.

Is it possible ?
Is there a example anywhere ?

Thanks,

Does anyone have a good example of using Docx4j + Freemarker with Content Controls?

We want to create a library of macros that we can reuse to inject text into the content controls.

I guess we could use xpath functions for some of the math, etc. that we want to do but Freemarker is easier to write than xpath for non-programmers.

Hi guys,

Just started using the docx4j library to create some word documents.
Now I need to create a pie chart within the word document, I've tried searching to forums and came across a few topics that still left me confused.

At my disposal I have 3 relevant objects:
ObjectFactory
WordprocessingMLPackage
MainDocumentPart

How would I go about adding a pie chart into the MainDocumentPart?

I have been working on converting a docx file to pdf. The conversion runs successfully, however the output in the pdf file is not the same:

Hello guys;

I'm trying to a find and replace app for our works. Actually, it may be faster and easier via VisualBasic; however, after a long time without programming, I've turn back to my old friend Java. First I've tried Apache POI but it was not very useful Than I've discovered docx4j and actually love it!

Anyway, I've researched on google and this forum completely and I've written my codes via Maven install. However, my ...

Hi All,

Please let me know if there is any tutorial to understand docx document.xml's all elements.

Ex: I understan that <w:p> is a paragraph, <w:t> is a text, but what is <w:pPr> element.

<w:pPr>
<w:rPr>
<w:color w:val="FF0000"/>
</w:rPr>
</w:pPr>
<w:r w:rsidRPr="00962004">
<w:rPr>
<w:color w:val="FF0000"/>
</w:rPr>
<w:t>Geometrical</w:t>
</w:r>
