Hi Team,

I am facing a an issue where if all of my variables in a docx document are not in same font, then few of them don't get replaced with actual values.

Below is the piece of code I use to replace variables and generate pdf, please advise what is missing

tempDir = correctDirectoryPath(tempDir);
bytes = IOUtils.toByteArray(inputStream);
file = new File(tempDir + fileName + this.formatter.format(new Date()) + ".pdf");
WordprocessingMLPackage wordMLPackage = WordprocessingMLPackage.load(new ByteArrayInputStream(bytes));
VariablePrepare.prepare(wordMLPackage);
MainDocumentPart documentPart = wordMLPackage.getMainDocumentPart();
if (params != null) {
fields = new HashMap<>(params);
documentPart.variableReplace((HashMap<String, String>) fields);
}
Mapper fontMapper = new IdentityPlusMapper();
wordMLPackage.setFontMapper(fontMapper);

List<SectionWrapper> sectionWrappers = replaceHeaders(params, wordMLPackage);

FieldUpdater updater = new FieldUpdater(wordMLPackage);
updater.update(true);
FOSettings foSettings = Docx4J.createFOSettings();
foSettings.setWmlPackage(wordMLPackage);
if (!file.exists()) {
file.createNewFile();
}
os = new FileOutputStream(file);
Docx4J.toFO(foSettings, os, Docx4J.FLAG_EXPORT_PREFER_XSL);
System.out.println("Done!");
return file;

I see you are running VariablePrepare, so I suspect your text slips through its heuristics for fixing split runs.

Can you attach your docx or email it to me?

Hey Jason,

Thanks a lot for replying, shall I not use VariablePrepare, what would I loose if I don't.

I am attaching a sample docx document, which I am using to convert to PDF.

I have removed few lines from between as that is some company stuff.

Awaiting your response.

Attaching one more file for reference

Running your documents through:



I can see the runs are still "split":



The runs are only joined up if the rPr are identical:
https://github.com/plutext/docx4j/blob/ ... .java#L144

Notice here that one only of the rPr contains <w:shd w:val="clear" w:color="auto" w:fill="FFFFFF"/> so the runs stay split and the variable isn't recognised.
