After update of an existing DOCX-template, the output file (DOCX) containts some unreadable characters according Word.
In jmix 1.5 and 1.6
Create new report using wizzard (DOCX-template).
Run report → output file is OK.
Download DOCX-template, change something (layout, text, …), save and upload template.
Run report → when opening output file Word error shows.
Hello,
Was the original template made with a different version of MS Word, or was the new template made with a different format, like DOC instead of DOCX?
Kind regards,
Mladen
Hi Mladen,
The first template is created by the jmix wizzard and it works.
I use MAC to download the template and to open in Mac-Word. This is working fine.
Changed template upload to te report.
Run report works ok, result is a new reportname.docx file.
When opening the reportname.docx file in Mac-Word I get this error.
If you like, you can make a small test project on github, with the original template that works, and share it.
I will then change something in the template using PC. I feel that there may be a problem with MAC version of Word.
I was able to open your project and run it.
I have the same result as you - as soon as the original template is changed, saved, and imported to the report, it shows an error when opening.
I’m using Office 365, so it’s not Mac version.
Do you need to use Jmix 1.6? If not, I would try with the latest version for the new project, maybe it has a new ms word renderer version that would work.
Also, I would use Jasper template type, it’s a more complex but also more powerful, I’m able to get various output formats from it, like word, pdf, HTML …
If yes, then a Jmix team member is the best address to solve this.
Hi Mile,
