# DOCX Library Tutorial

Generate .docx files with JavaScript/TypeScript.

**Important: Read this entire document before starting.** Critical formatting rules and common pitfalls are covered throughout - skipping sections may result in corrupted files or rendering issues.

## Setup
Assumes docx is already installed globally
If not installed: `npm install -g docx`

```javascript
const { Document, Packer, Paragraph, TextRun, Table, TableRow, TableCell, ImageRun, Media, 
        Header, Footer, AlignmentType, PageOrientation, LevelFormat, ExternalHyperlink, 
        InternalHyperlink, TableOfContents, HeadingLevel, BorderStyle, WidthType, TabStopType, 
        TabStopPosition, UnderlineType, ShadingType, VerticalAlign, SymbolRun, PageNumber,
        FootnoteReferenceRun, Footnote, PageBreak } = require('docx');

// Create & Save
const doc = new Document({ sections: [{ children: [/* content */] }] });
Packer.toBuffer(doc).then(buffer => fs.writeFileSync("doc.docx", buffer)); // Node.js
Packer.toBlob(doc).then(blob => { /* download logic */ }); // Browser
```

## Text & Formatting
```javascript
// IMPORTANT: Never use \n for line breaks - always use separate Paragraph elements
// ❌ WRONG: new TextRun("Line 1\nLine 2")
// ✅ CORRECT: new Paragraph({ children: [new TextRun("Line 1")] }), new Paragraph({ children: [new TextRun("Line 2")] })

// Basic text with all formatting options
new Paragraph({
  alignment: AlignmentType.CENTER,
  spacing: { before: 200, after: 200 },
  indent: { left: 720, right: 720 },
  children: [
    new TextRun({ text: "Bold", bold: true }),
    new TextRun({ text: "Italic", italics: true }),
    new TextRun({ text: "Underlined", underline: { type: UnderlineType.DOUBLE, color: "FF0000" } }),
    new TextRun({ text: "Colored", color: "FF0000", size: 28, font: "Arial" }), // Arial default
    new TextRun({ text: "Highlighted", highlight: "yellow" }),
    new TextRun({ text: "Strikethrough", strike: true }),
    new TextRun({ text: "x2", superScript: true }),
    new TextRun({ text: "H2O", subScript: true }),
    new TextRun({ text: "SMALL CAPS", smallCaps: true }),
    new SymbolRun({ char: "2022", font: "Symbol" }), // Bullet •
    new SymbolRun({ char: "00A9", font: "Arial" })   // Copyright © - Arial for symbols
  ]
})
```

## Styles & Professional Formatting

```javascript
const doc = new Document({
  styles: {
    default: { document: { run: { font: "Arial", size: 24 } } }, // 12pt default
    paragraphStyles: [
      // Document title style - override built-in Title style
      { id: "Title", name: "Title", basedOn: "Normal",
        run: { size: 56, bold: true, color: "000000", font: "Arial" },
        paragraph: { spacing: { before: 240, after: 120 }, alignment: AlignmentType.CENTER } },
      // IMPORTANT: Override built-in heading styles by using their exact IDs
      { id: "Heading1", name: "Heading 1", basedOn: "Normal", next: "Normal", quickFormat: true,
        run: { size: 32, bold: true, color: "000000", font: "Arial" }, // 16pt
        paragraph: { spacing: { before: 240, after: 240 }, outlineLevel: 0 } }, // Required for TOC
      { id: "Heading2", name: "Heading 2", basedOn: "Normal", next: "Normal", quickFormat: true,
        run: { size: 28, bold: true, color: "000000", font: "Arial" }, // 14pt
        paragraph: { spacing: { before: 180, after: 180 }, outlineLevel: 1 } },
      // Custom styles use your own IDs
      { id: "myStyle", name: "My Style", basedOn: "Normal",
        run: { size: 28, bold: true, color: "000000" },
        paragraph: { spacing: { after: 120 }, alignment: AlignmentType.CENTER } }
    ],
    characterStyles: [{ id: "myCharStyle", name: "My Char Style",
      run: { color: "FF0000", bold: true, underline: { type: UnderlineType.SINGLE } } }]
  },
  sections: [{
    properties: { page: { margin: { top: 1440, right: 1440, bottom: 1440, left: 1440 } } },
    children: [
      new Paragraph({ heading: HeadingLevel.TITLE, children: [new TextRun("Document Title")] }), // U
