I tried with the simplest example here : https://www.phpdocx.com/api-documentation/word-content/insert-docx-html-rtf-mht-txt-alternative-content-into-Word-with-PHP

<?php
require_once 'config.php';
require_once CB_DIR_3DP.'phpdocx-corporate-5.5/classes/CreateDocx.inc';

$docx = new CreateDocx();

$docx->addText('aaa');
$docx->addExternalFile(array('src' => 'Text.docx'));
$docx->addText('bbb');

$docx->createDocx('example_addExternalFile');
?>

But the output file (example_addExternalFile) just contains

aaa

bbb
