Hi. I've seriously issue. Uses a basic version 6.5.
I create a document from a template and for the default sizes this works. But I had to resize (modifyPageLayout) the page to small sizes 1200px x 700px (used custom option). My template has a big font size for text. How I can change font size for all content? Now I see result as 5 empty pages insteead 2 and without content. Thanks!

Hello,

Changing font sizes on-the-fly of existing documents depends on how they are set.

If they are set using only the default style, you can use setDefaultFont (https://www.phpdocx.com/api-documentation/layout-and-general/set-default-font-Word-document-with-PHP) or setDocumentDefaultStyles (https://www.phpdocx.com/api-documentation/layout-and-general/set-document-default-styles-Word-document-with-PHP). setDocumentDefaultStyles is available since phpdocx 8.0, we recommend you to upgrade your license to be able to use this method.

If font sizes are set as custom styles or run-of-content styles, then you need to use DOCXCustomizer (https://www.phpdocx.com/api-documentation/docxcustomizer/customize-docx-Word-documents-PHP), but it's only available in Premium licenses.

Regards.
