- ``v*``. Available only when inside header/footer.
- ``v**``. Available only when inside section.

Texts
-----
Text can be added by using ``addText`` and ``addTextRun`` method.
``addText`` is used for creating simple paragraphs that only contain texts with the same style.
``addTextRun`` is used for creating complex paragraphs that contain text with different style (some bold, other
italics, etc) or other elements, e.g. images or links. The syntaxes are as follow:
.. code-block:: php
$section->addText($text, [$fontStyle], [$paragraphStyle]);
$textrun = $section->addTextRun([$paragraphStyle]);
- ``$text``. Text to be displayed in the document.
- ``$fontStyle``. See :ref:`font-style`.
- ``$paragraphStyle``. See :ref:`paragraph-style`.
For available styling options see :ref:`font-style` and :ref:`paragraph-style`.
Titles
~~~~~~
If you want to structure your document or build table of contents, you need titles or headings.
To add a title to the document, use the ``addTitleStyle`` and ``addTitle`` method.
.. code-block:: php
$phpWord->addTitleStyle($depth, [$fontStyle], [$paragraphStyle]);
$section->addTitle($text, [$depth]);
- ``depth``.
- ``$fontStyle``. See :ref:`font-style`.
- ``$paragraphStyle``. See :ref:`paragraph-style`.
- ``$text``. Text to be displayed in the document.
It's necessary to add a title style to your document because otherwise the title won't be detected as a real title.
Links
~~~~~
You can add Hyperlinks to the document by using the function addLink:
.. code-block:: php
$section->addLink($linkSrc, [$linkName], [$fontStyle], [$paragraphStyle]);
- ``$linkSrc``. The URL of the link.
- ``$linkName``. Placeholder of the URL that appears in the document.
- ``$fontStyle``. See :ref:`font-style`.
- ``$paragraphStyle``. See :ref:`paragraph-style`.
Preserve texts
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The ``addPreserveText`` method is used to add a page number or page count to headers or footers.
.. code-block:: php
$footer->addPreserveText('Page {PAGE} of {NUMPAGES}.');
Breaks
------
Text breaks
~~~~~~~~~~~
Text breaks are empty new lines. To add text breaks, use the following syntax. All parameters are optional.
.. code-block:: php
$section->addTextBreak([$breakCount], [$fontStyle], [$paragraphStyle]);
- ``$breakCount``. How many lines.
- ``$fontStyle``. See :ref:`font-style`.
- ``$paragraphStyle``. See :ref:`paragraph-style`.
Page breaks
~~~~~~~~~~~
There are two ways to insert a page breaks, using the ``addPageBreak``
method or using the ``pageBreakBefore`` style of paragraph.
:: code-block:: php
\\$section->addPageBreak();
Lists
-----
To add a list item use the function ``addListItem``.
Basic usage:
.. code-block:: php
$section->addListItem($text, [$depth], [$fontStyle], [$listStyle], [$paragraphStyle]);
Parameters:
- ``$text``. Text that appears in the document.
- ``$depth``. Depth of list item.
- ``$fontStyle``. See :ref:`font-style`.
- ``$listStyle``. List style of the current element TYPE\_NUMBER,
TYPE\_ALPHANUM, TYPE\_BULLET\_FILLED, etc. See list of constants in PHPWord\_Style\_ListItem.
- ``$paragraphStyle``. See :ref:`paragraph-style`.
Advanced usage:
You can also create your own numbering style by changing the ``$listStyle`` parameter with the name of your numbering style.
.. code-block:: php
$phpWord->addNumberingStyle(
'multilevel',
array(
'type' => 'multilevel',
'levels' => array(
array('format' => 'decimal', 'text' => '%1.', 'left' => 360, 'hanging' => 360, 'tabPos' => 360),
array('format' => 'upperLetter', 'text' => '%2.', 'left' => 720, 'hanging' => 360, 'tabPos' => 720),
)
)
);
$section->addListItem('List Item I', 0, null, 'multilevel');
$section->addListItem('List Item I.a', 1, null, 'multilevel');
$section->addListItem('List Item I.b', 1, null, 'multilevel');
$section->addListItem('List Item II', 0, null, 'multilevel');
For available styling options see :ref:`numbering-level-style`.
Tables
------
To add tables, rows, and cells, use the ``addTable``, ``addRow``, and ``addCell`` methods:
.. code-block:: php
$table = $section->addTable([$tableStyle]);
$table->addRow([$height], [$rowStyle]);
$cell = $table->addCell($width, [$cellStyle]);
Table style can be defined with ``addTableStyle``:
.. code-block:: php
$tableStyle = array(
'borderColor' => '006699',
'borderSize' => 6,
'cellMargin' => 50
);
$firstRowStyle = array('bgColor' => '66BBFF');
$phpWord->addTableStyle('myTable', $tableStyle, $firstRowStyle);
$table = $section->addTable('myTable');
For available styling options see :ref:`table-style`.
Cell span
~~~~~~~~~
You can span a cell on multiple columns by using ``gridSpan`` or multiple rows by using ``vMerge``.
.. code-block:: php
$cell = $table->addCell(200);
$cell->getStyle()->setGridSpan(5);
See ``Sample_09_Tables.php`` for more code sample.
Images
------
To add an image, use the ``addImage`` method to sections, headers, footers, textruns, or table cells.
.. code-block:: php
$section->addImage($src, [$style]);
- ``$src``. String path to a local image or URL of a remote image.
- ``$style``. See :ref:`image-style`.
Examples:
.. code-block:: php
$section = $phpWord->addSection();
$section->addImage(
'mars.jpg',
array(
'width' => 100,
'height' => 100,
'marginTop' => -1,
'marginLeft' => -1,
'wrappingStyle' => 'behind'
)
);
$footer = $section->addFooter();
$footer->addImage('http://example.com/image.php');
$textrun = $section->addTextRun();
$textrun->addImage('http://php.net/logo.jpg');
Watermarks
~~~~~~~~~~
To add a watermark (or page background image), your section needs a
header reference. After creating a header, you can use the
``addWatermark`` method to add a watermark.
.. code-block:: php
$section = $phpWord->addSection();
$header = $section->addHeader();
$header->addWatermark('resources/_earth.jpg', array('marginTop' => 200, 'marginLeft' => 55));
Objects
-------
You can add OLE embeddings, such as Excel spreadsheets or PowerPoint
presentations to the document by using ``addObject`` method.
.. code-block:: php
$section->addObject($src, [$style]);
Table of contents
-----------------
To add a table of contents (TOC), you can use the ``addTOC`` method.
Your TOC can only be generated if you have add at least one title (See "Titles").
.. code-block:: php
$section->addTOC([$fontStyle], [$tocStyle], [$minDepth], [$maxDepth]);
- ``$fontStyle``. See font style section.
- ``$tocStyle``. See available options below.
- ``$minDepth``. Minimum depth of header to be shown. Default 1.
- ``$maxDepth``. Maximum depth of header to be shown. Default 9.
Options for ``$tocStyle``:
- ``tabLeader``. Fill type between the title text and the page number. Use the defined constants in PHPWord\_Style\_TOC.
- ``tabPos``. The position of the tab where the page number appears in twips.
- ``indent``. The indent factor of the titles in twips.
Footnotes & endnotes
--------------------
You can create footnotes with ``addFootnote`` and endnotes with
``addEndnote`` in texts or textruns, but it's recommended to use textrun
to have better layout. You can use ``addText``, ``addLink``,
``addTextBreak``, ``addImage``, ``addObject`` on footnotes and endnotes.
On textrun:
.. code-block:: php
$textrun = $section->addTextRun();
$textrun->addText('Lead text.');
$footnote = $textrun->addFootnote();
$footnote->addText('Footnote text can have ');
$footnote->addLink('http://test.com', 'links');
$footnote->addText('.');
$footnote->addTextBreak();
$footnote->addText('And text break.');
$textrun->addText('Trailing text.');
$endnote = $textrun->addEndnote();
$endnote->addText('Endnote put at the end');
On text:
.. code-block:: php
$section->addText('Lead text.');
$footnote = $section->addFootnote();
$footnote->addText('Footnote text.');
The footnote reference number will be displayed with decimal number
starting from 1. This number use ``FooterReference`` style which you can
redefine by ``addFontStyle`` method. Default value for this style is
``array('superScript' => true)``;
Checkboxes
----------
Checkbox elements can be added to sections or table cells by using ``addCheckBox``.
.. code-block:: php
$section->addCheckBox($name, $text, [$fontStyle], [$paragraphStyle])
- ``$name``. Name of the check box.
- ``$text``. Text to be displayed in the document.
- ``$fontStyle``. See :ref:`font-style`.
- ``$paragraphStyle``. See :ref:`paragraph-style`.

.. code-block:: php
$linestyle = array('weight' => 1, 'width' => 100, 'height' => 0, 'color' => 635552);
$section->addLine($lineStyle)
Available line style attributes:
- ``weight``. Line width in twips.
- ``color``. Defines the color of stroke.
- ``dash``. Line types: dash, rounddot, squaredot, dashdot, longdash, longdashdot, longdashdotdot.
