B4J Question Is it possible to write into a WORD-Template?

[JOTHA]

Hello comunity,

does anyone know if it is possible to write into a Word-Template?

If it is not possible ...
1) who knows how to create a header in word?
2) who knows how to get a horizontal right alignment?
These questions depend on https://poi.apache.org/apidocs/dev/org/apache/poi/xwpf/usermodel/XWPFRun.html

jPOI is based on Apache POI project: http://poi.apache.org/
Currently it only supports Microsoft Excel related APIs.

Hello DonManfred,

Currently it only supports Microsoft Excel related APIs.

I found an example named PoiWord which genereated a WORD-Document (see attached file), so my question was if i can manipulate an existing Word-Document.

 

[DonManfred]

I was not aware that this sample exists.

Based on the example it is build upon javaobject.

Guess you need to complete the code to support changing (if poi itself does support it) using java object.
Or write a wrapper for word-pois methods/object with java.

I did not saw anything other.

ms office files should be zip files with xml file content.
as example .docx can be renamed in .docx.zip and you can look at the files in windows explorer.

Have a look at this post by Erel , that's what he does in his code. (just ignore the excel bits)
