An enthusiastic user of TX Text Control recently published an open
source project that provides a Microsoft CWnd-based wrapper for TX Text
Control ActiveX 15.1. Generally, ActiveX controls can be easily
imported into MFC-based projects, but these wrappers around ActiveX
controls are incomplete. This project contains wrappers for the
TXTextControl, TXButtonBar, TXRulerBar and TXStatusBar. The TXWrapper
class itself acts like a parent window for the TX Text Control
components. Additionally, some helper classes and a sample application
is part of the project. If you plan to use TX Text Control
ActiveX in a Visual C++ MFC project, I can really recommend this
wrapper. It is all you need to start a TX Text Control word processing
application using VC++. Please visit the project's website on
SourceForge to learn more about the wrapper or to download the files.
All further contributions are welcome. C++ MFC wrapper for TX

LiveDocx allows developers to
create word processing documents by combining user-defined Microsoft
Word templates with data from disparate data sources, such as XML files
and databases. It is typically used to create professional, print-ready
word processing documents in DOCX, DOC, RTF and PDF. LiveDocx is
a Web Service that can be easily integrated into any web application
without installing or configuring any software on your server.
Currently, the following programming languages are supported: - ASP.NET - PHP As LiveDocx
is strictly based on open standards, it is simple to add support for
more programming languages. As long as SOAP (Simple Object Access
Protocol) is available on the client-side system, LiveDocx runs on all operating systems and in all programming languages. Typical Applications:Using LiveDocx, developers can merge data with Microsoft Word templates into one print-ready, word processing document. For
example, the sales department of an enterprise can access constantly
fluctuating sales data that is stored in a centralized location and
combine it with a richly formatted template to programmatically produce
a set of sales reports. The resulting word processing documents can be
sent by e-mail, fax or snail mail to their recipients. Similarly, telephone companies can deploy LiveDocx
to generate customer invoices. All connection information and billing
information is stored in one centralized customer database. Selected
data is assigned to LiveDocx and combined with a standardized template to produce the resulting invoice. Summary - Populate templates with data from any data source (DB, XML, CSV). - Build mail merge or mass-mail applications. - Generate customized documents on-the-fly with constantly changing data. - Generate print ready PDF documents, with multiple security settings. - Share your created documents or - Integrate them into your web site using the LiveDocx widget. Advantages of the LiveDocx Client/Server ArchitectureAs LiveDocx
reduces document generation to the absolute lowest common denominator,
its deployment also lowers the total cost of document creation.
Developers no longer need to worry about installing and maintaining 3rd
party tools or applications on their servers. They simply call LiveDocx over the Internet, using a very simple API. Typically,
printer drivers, fonts and licenses need to be installed, maintained
and administered when programmatically generating word processing
documents on a server. Using LiveDocx, this load is shifted from the developer to a team of professional server administrators. Developers
are thus free to concentrate on building world-class applications and
not be hassled by the mundane work associated with sever administration. Thanks to its modulate and open architecture, LiveDocx can be easily integrated into existing work flow systems, using most programming languages. Summary - Deploy in a multi-programing language environment. - Substantially reduce server load and consequently total cost of ownership (TCO). - Simple integration into existing systems. - Decrease server maintenance.

In version 15.0, TX Text Control
released the first PDF import filter. The idea was to provide the
functionality to import PDF documents and do further processing on such
documents. The first version was able to extract the text from PDF
files. Even paragraphs were recognized and the text frame mode was able
to generate good looking documents.
If you don't know the PDF
format in detail, you might wonder why it is so tricky to load this
format. To understand this, imagine a PDF document like a real
executable file in contrast to the source code.
An RTF document
is like the source code. You can open it easily in a text editor and if
you understand RTF tags, you can make changes to the document.
Whereas
the PDF document can be compared to the true Win32 EXE which can't be
easily decompiled. To understand what the EXE does or how it is
implemented, you need to reverse engineer the executable. The same is
valid for PDF documents: The Adobe PDF format is a low-level output
format and was designed to be printed - not to be imported again. In
most cases it contains only geometrical information about the single
characters. You have to calculate which characters belong to a
sentence, a paragraph or a text frame.
So, what has been improved?
Aside
from new image formats that are now supported, the most impressive part
is the grouping of created text frames. Have a look at a typical PDF
page:
It
consists of a heading, an introduction text and a table with 3 columns.
The following screenshots show the results from version 15.0 in
comparison to version 15.1:
 
As
you can see in the 1. screenshot, all text areas are inserted as single
text frames to realize the distances between the paragraphs. The
problem with this is that you can't extract the text from all of these
frames using copy and paste. With version 15.1 (2. screenshot), all
text frames are grouped into one large frame and the distances are
realized using paragraph distances, specific line spacing and indents.
The
tabular data in the PDF is now realized using tab positions and not
single text frames which makes the text readable and reusable. The
following illustration shows the same document in TX Text Control 15.1
with visible control characters where the line spacing and tab
positions are highlighted:

Creating mail merge templates including a preview functionality
Because of the
new FieldAdapter class, MS Word compatible merge fields can be inserted
easily into a document. Using the Windows Forms version of TX Text Control, a template designer can be easily built and deployed royalty-free.
In the shipped samples, TX Text Control
demonstrates how to create templates by inserting the fields directly
using the ApplicationField collection. This article describes how to
create templates using the adapter fields. Additionally, it shows how
to preview the template with the real data coming from a database.
This approach follows the same logic of creating a template like the shipped 'closed source' TX Template Designer:
- Open a database
- Select a table
- Insert fields
Details:
1. First, click on Open Database... and browse for an XML database
file. A sample file comes with this project. If the XML database could
be loaded properly, the contained tables are listed in the first
combobox.
2. Select one of the listed tables. All column names will be added to the items of the second combobox.
3. The column names are used as field names of the inserted merge
fields. If an item is selected, click Add field to insert the merge
field into the document.
4. The loaded database is used to get the possible fields that can be
used in the template. Additionally, the contained data rows can be used
to preview the merged document. Click on Preview to enable the preview
functionality.
Using the arrow buttons, it is possible to navigate through the data
rows of the current table to preview all rows. You are able to use this
nice approach as your basis for your own template designer.
Download the project and sample database file here (Visual Studio 2008
and at least a TX Text Control .NET 15.0 trial version is required):
