I am trying to replace a placeholder image and it is not working. Here is the code I am using: require_once 'phpdocx/classes/CreateDocx.inc'; $docx = new CreateDocxFromTemplate('templates/test.docx'); $docx->replacePlaceholderImage('IMAGE', 'test.jpg'); $fileName=date('ymdHis'); $docx->createDocx('files/'); echo "

Your document has been generated.

docx

"; And on my template, I put $IMAGE$ in the Alternative Text for the image. The code completes and created my document, but it does not replace the placeholder image. I know the path to the replacement image is right, because if I modify it, I get an error.

I figured it out. I was using Word 2003 with the Office 2007 compatibility pack to save the docx and it didn't work, I tried it on a copy of Office 2010 and it worked.
