Basically it define a content control in template and at run time try to locate the content control and replace it with altChunk.

I tried to do the same thing using docx4j API, I managed to locate the content control, but ...

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,

Does docx4j support altChunk for inserting a docx file into another docx file? if yes can anyone post an example? if not yet, are we going to support this feature in near future?

I am programmatically inserting custom XML to be displayed in a docx file. I am making use of the bindingrole=repeat, and everything is working wonderfully! However, if I have a content control setup for an attribute which isn't always set in the XML, say a person's title. Then when I open the processed docx file, I see the text "Click here to enter text." where the title would normally be. How can avoid that, and ...

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.

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

Hello,

Does anyone know why some page breaks aren't rendered and some are?
On log output appears:

Code: Select all

*ERROR* MainDocumentPart: UNEXPECTED: org.docx4j.wml.Br (MainDocumentPart.java, line 562)

But I can't find a reason for that.

Thanks
