Hi

I had to use

[code]$docx->modifyPageLayout('A4-landscape');[/code]

instead of

[code]$docx->createDocxAndDownload('_mydoc', array('orient' => 'landscape');[/code]

to force landscape mode of my document.
Issue ?

Many thanks

Hello,

Are you using a template or a new DOCX?

I'm also finding the document parameters do not work, for example:

[code]
$docx = new CreateDocx();

$docx->addText("Hello world!");

$docx->createDocxAndDownload(
'dynamic_docs/hello_world',
array(
'orient' => 'landscape',
'top' => 1000,
'bottom' => 1000,
'left' => 2000,
'right' => 2000
)
);
[/code]


None of the above parameters have any effect on the resulting document. Is this an issue or am I missing something here?

Having looked at the XML output, I can see now that there is definitely an issue here.

[b]PHPDOCX output:[/b]
[code]<w:pgSz w:w="11906" w:h="16838" w:orient="landscape" w:code="9"/>[/code]


[b]MS Word output (created a blank landscape document):[/b]
[code]<w:pgSz w:w="16838" w:h="11906" w:orient="landscape"/>[/code]


Looks like the orientation is coming through, but the page width and height are still A4-Portrait - why is this?

Many thanks for your help,
Seb

Hello,

As the first comment says just use modifyPageLayout method. Almost every options of createDocx are deprecated.

Regards.
