I ran into a problem while generating multiple docx files at the same time. If I apply a template with the addTemplate() method, it will be applied to whatever object is rendered first through createDocx, even if that is a different object. This makes working with multiple CreateDocx objects somewhat risky. Is this a bug, or is there a method I could use to avoid this issue?



The following code demonstrates the issue:



// create two objects

$a = new CreateDocx();

$b = new CreateDocx();



// add a template to file a

$a->addTemplate('template.docx');



// render file b, it will contain the template that was added to file a

$b->createDocx('b');



// next render file a, which will not contain the template

$a->createDocx('a');
