Hi,

I'm considering purchasing PHPDocx due the lack of support of a open source library. For the evaluation I downloaded the trial version and tried the following:

$path = app_path('/cfiles/TemplateBlocks_symbols.docx');
                
if (!file_exists($path)) {
        echo 'File doesn\'t exists';
        die();
}
                
if (!extension_loaded('zip')) { 
        echo 'No zip extension available';
        die();  
}
                 
require_once(app_path('/PHPDocx/CreateDocx.php'));
$docs = new \CreateDocxFromTemplate($path);

 

As you can see, I'm verifiying both the file path and the zip extension enabled. Also I added one of the sample files, but the script keep poping the error "Error while trying to open the (base) template as a zip file". Not sure if there anything else I can do. The PHP version is 8.

Can you help me? Basically I'm interested in the "list" feature.

Thanks!
