Examples

Shows how to create and use a paragraph style with list formatting.

Document doc = new Document();
DocumentBuilder builder = new DocumentBuilder(doc);

// Create a custom paragraph style.
Style style = doc.Styles.Add(StyleType.Paragraph, "MyStyle1");
style.Font.Size = 24;
style.Font.Name = "Verdana";
style.ParagraphFormat.SpaceAfter = 12;

// Create a list and make sure the paragraphs that use this style will use this list.
style.ListFormat.List = doc.Lists.Add(ListTemplate.BulletDefault);
style.ListFormat.ListLevelNumber = 0;

// Apply the paragraph style to the document builder's current paragraph, and then add some text.
builder.ParagraphFormat.Style = style;
builder.Writeln("Hello World: MyStyle1, bulleted list.");

// Change the document builder's style to one that has no list formatting and write another paragraph.
builder.ParagraphFormat.Style = doc.Styles["Normal"];
builder.Writeln("Hello World: Normal.");

builder.Document.Save(ArtifactsDir + "Styles.ParagraphStyleBulletedList.docx");

Shows how to create and apply a custom style.

Document doc = new Document();

Style style = doc.Styles.Add(StyleType.Paragraph, "MyStyle");
style.Font.Name = "Times New Roman";
style.Font.Size = 16;
style.Font.Color = Color.Navy;
// Automatically redefine style.
style.AutomaticallyUpdate = true;

DocumentBuilder builder = new DocumentBuilder(doc);

// Apply one of the styles from the document to the paragraph that the document builder is creating.
builder.ParagraphFormat.Style = doc.Styles["MyStyle"];
builder.Writeln("Hello world!");

Style firstParagraphStyle = doc.FirstSection.Body.FirstParagraph.ParagraphFormat.Style;

Assert.AreEqual(style, firstParagraphStyle);

// Remove our custom style from the document's styles collection.
doc.Styles["MyStyle"].Remove();

firstParagraphStyle = doc.FirstSection.Body.FirstParagraph.ParagraphFormat.Style;

// Any text that used a removed style reverts to the default formatting.
Assert.False(doc.Styles.Any(s => s.Name == "MyStyle"));
Assert.AreEqual("Times New Roman", firstParagraphStyle.Font.Name);
Assert.AreEqual(12.0d, firstParagraphStyle.Font.Size);
Assert.AreEqual(Color.Empty.ToArgb(), firstParagraphStyle.Font.Color.ToArgb());
