dstDoc.AppendDocument(srcDoc, ImportFormatMode.KeepSourceFormatting);
dstDoc.Save(ArtifactsDir + "Document.AppendDocument.docx");
```

Shows how to append all the documents in a folder to the end of a template document.

Document dstDoc = new Document();

DocumentBuilder builder = new DocumentBuilder(dstDoc);

builder.ParagraphFormat.StyleIdentifier = StyleIdentifier.Normal;
builder.Writeln("Some content here");
// Append all unencrypted documents with the .doc extension
// from our local file system directory to the base document.
List<string> docFiles = Directory.GetFiles(MyDir, "*.doc").Where(item => item.EndsWith(".doc")).ToList();
foreach (string fileName in docFiles)
{
    FileFormatInfo info = FileFormatUtil.DetectFileFormat(fileName);
    if (info.IsEncrypted)
        continue;

    Document srcDoc = new Document(fileName);

Shows how to manage list style clashes while appending a document.

```csharp
// Load a document with text in a custom style and clone it.
Document srcDoc = new Document(MyDir + "Custom list numbering.docx");
Document dstDoc = srcDoc.Clone();

// We now have two documents, each with an identical style named "CustomStyle".
// Change the text color for one of the styles to set it apart from the other.
dstDoc.Styles["CustomStyle"].Font.Color = Color.DarkRed;

// If there is a clash of list styles, apply the list format of the source document.
// Set the "KeepSourceNumbering" property to "false" to not import any list numbers into the destination document.
// Set the "KeepSourceNumbering" property to "true" import all clashing
// list style numbering with the same appearance that it had in the source document.
ImportFormatOptions options = new ImportFormatOptions();
options.KeepSourceNumbering = keepSourceNumbering;

// Joining two documents that have different styles that share the same name causes a style clash.
// We can specify an import format mode while appending documents to resolve this clash.
dstDoc.AppendDocument(srcDoc, ImportFormatMode.KeepDifferentStyles, options);
dstDoc.UpdateListLabels();

dstDoc.Save(ArtifactsDir + "DocumentBuilder.AppendDocumentAndResolveStyles.docx");
```

Shows how to manage list style clashes while inserting a document.

```csharp
Document dstDoc = new Document();
DocumentBuilder builder = new DocumentBuilder(dstDoc);
builder.InsertBreak(BreakType.ParagraphBreak);

dstDoc.Lists.Add(ListTemplate.NumberDefault);
Aspose.Words.Lists.List docList = dstDoc.Lists[0];

builder.ListFormat.List = docList;

for (int i = 1; i <= 15; i++)
    builder.Write($"List Item {i}\n");

Document attachDoc = (Document)dstDoc.Clone(true);

// If there is a clash of list styles, apply the list format of the source document.
// Set the "KeepSourceNumbering" property to "false" to not import any list numbers into the destination document.
// Set the "KeepSourceNumbering" property to "true" import all clashing
// list style numbering with the same appearance that it had in the source document.
ImportFormatOptions importOptions = new ImportFormatOptions();
importOptions.KeepSourceNumbering = keepSourceNumbering;

builder.InsertBreak(BreakType.SectionBreakNewPage);
builder.InsertDocument(attachDoc, ImportFormatMode.KeepSourceFormatting, importOptions);

dstDoc.Save(ArtifactsDir + "DocumentBuilder.InsertDocumentAndResolveStyles.docx");
```

Shows how to manage list style clashes while appending a clone of a document to itself.

```csharp
Document srcDoc = new Document(MyDir + "List item.docx");
Document dstDoc = new Document(MyDir + "List item.docx");

// If there is a clash of list styles, apply the list format of the source document.
// Set the "KeepSourceNumbering" property to "false" to not import any list numbers into the destination document.
// Set the "KeepSourceNumbering" property to "true" import all clashing
// list style numbering with the same appearance that it had in the source document.
DocumentBuilder builder = new DocumentBuilder(dstDoc);
builder.MoveToDocumentEnd();
builder.InsertBreak(BreakType.SectionBreakNewPage);

ImportFormatOptions options = new ImportFormatOptions();
options.KeepSourceNumbering = keepSourceNumbering;
builder.InsertDocument(srcDoc, ImportFormatMode.KeepSourceFormatting, options);

dstDoc.UpdateListLabels();
```
