Using docx4j, I'm trying to populate many merge fields with text values in a docx document, and it worked correctly. I have a merge field that should be replaced by an image. Is there a way to move to the position of the field then remove it and insert the image.
Edit:
I found this link and it is very helpful

I have a field Large text in my Access table and When I create a Form an I add this field I can Write several lines with intro to break down each line but when I open that table in that field I only see the first line I wrote, but If I see that record by the Form I see all the lines.
Seems that the lines are stores but the table in View mode do not show them
Any idea please?
In the table (datasheet view), increase the row height to see multiple lines per row.
Just as you would do in Excel.
Upps.
If I use the arrow down I see all the text
Sorry...
I'm responsible for remediating a PDF that has been generated by a third-party, proprietary system for which I have no access to the layout or design. The goal is to pass the adobe acrobat DC accessibility checker before publication.
Some of the tables in the PDF span multiple pages horizontally (i.e. with a page break at column 4 of 7). Thus far, I have designated each piece of text content as a "Cell" and grouped those into a "Table Row" tag and defined each header and sub-header as a "Table Header Cell".
However, Acrobat DC seems to get confused as to the relative size and spacing of each table element. It is creating phantom column headers and rearranging or combining rows in order to fit the appearance of a more standard layout PER PAGE. But since I need one cohesive table to span TWO PAGES, this is breaking my accessibility.
Depending on how I nest my table elements, I get a table layout like one of the two examples below:
Example when including blank cells for multi-column header rows
Example when defining the column span of multi-colum header rows as "7"
As you can see, the layout is not uniform and does not pass regularity checks. Plus, as I add more rows with several blank cells, the table editor produces an error that reads:
"Unknown Table Structure Encountered"
The only way I have managed to remove this error, is to exclude the bolded main-section sub-headers from the tag structure entirely, but I cannot just leave them as untagged content and pass the checker.
Please help.

Kevin, thanks for replying. Because of the malformed grid, I cannot even click on the cells on Page 2 in order to associate headers. Is there a way to define table structure without using the Table Editor mode? – Glamador Apr 3 at 12:27
but don't have the rep yet to do so:
Glamador - Knowing it can't help you half a year ago but might in the future: I encountered this in a document this week and figured out the "Why" and how to get the Table Editor back, but not the "Easiest/best way to solve" the tagging in Acrobat. This issue is denying you Table Editor is with the table header (TH) cell you created that spans multiple pages.
So if you set a table header cell to something like Row Span: 7, and 3 of those are on the second page Acrobat will give you the "Unknown table structure encountered. Please retag this table using the Reading Order Tool to possibly fix the problem." error any time you try to use the Table Editor on the table that has that [table header cell with a multi-page row span/I'm not working with but assume column span too].
To get your Table Editor use back (not solving the tagging of accessibility, but to quit getting that error on your table,):
Go to your tags
Create a new empty Table Header Cell
Drag the content displayed in the tag from the problem TH to your new TH
Delete the [multiple page row/column spanning, but now empty] problem TH
Repeat if you did this in multiple TH in the same table
You can now use Table Editor again
Note: Because you can't use the Table Editor once these problem headers have been created you can't use it to see which TH's you have set to span multiple pages, or see those row/column spans, so you're going to have to just look at your document if you went through tagging and are going back and checking later and figure out which are the likely problem headers to replace. If you create that header span again in the table that goes across multiple pages you'll be unable to use the Table Editor again until you delete that tag with the page spanning issue.
I haven't found if you can combine TH Row Span settings with IDs/Associated Header Cell IDs and have the user software identify both, so I've been doing the tedious ID association on large but simple tables as my "It's tagged correctly" option, but unfortunately it isn't nearly as fast and easy as Row Spans.
You can edit the tag's object properties by right-clicking on the tag and then you can add an ID there if it doesn't already have one. Be sure each data cell is associated with a header cell. PAC's screen reader preview will also give a good view of the layout to help you get everything associated correctly.
I am creating a data-merge document in InDesign.
There are various tables that I've created which only show as many rows as there is actual data in the field, through some creative table and cell styles.
Now I've been asked to only have an entirely separate table only show if there is information in any of those fields.
I'm at a total loss. With the way the current structure is set up, I can cause it to not display any text, but it still shows empty header cells and one line of empty row cells.
Pre-DataMerge, with the data fields
Post-Datamerge, with the resulting empty cells
Any creative ideas to hide that table? I was thinking there might be a way to hide the entire text field, if not the table. Maybe a script? I tried one that deletes blank tables, but that didn't seem to work after the data-merge was run.
I am not sure you can get that level of processing with InDesign datamerge. You could think of a script to post remove those tables or use a dedicated plugin such as Easycatalog that can take care of such empty items natively.
I am currently trying to insert pictures into a word document using access, I currently have a form with a button that uses a folder browser to search for pictures...these pictures are stored in a table!.
I can then select those pictures and insert them into a document, this all goes well, the problem is...I need to then group them (maximum 4 pictures in one group) after days of searching I cannot find any solutions to my problem.
It seems that I must first discover the position of the pictures and then I can go further, the problem there is...that there can be many pictures in total in the document so they do not have a fixed point and there is text between and after the pictures.
How do I solve this?
The most reliable and controlable approach is to place the pictures in table cells. In your case, probably a 2x2 table. Insert the table first (Tables.Add method) then get the target Cell.Range and use the Range.InlineShapes.AddPicture method to insert the picture.
Note that you should be able to control the width (or height) of the picture by setting the column (row) to an EXACT size. The other dimension should adjust automatically to retain the proportions.
I wrote a very simple drag and drop style report screen online so users can specify labels and fields etc much like an MS Access Report. I am having an issue getting this to output as PDF and I am using MigraDoc. The TextFrame allows you to specify a Left/Top which is good but I need to do this for multiple rows and I can't quite get it to work in this way.
At present I tried to add a table and a row (for each record) and put textframes within this with the left/top properties but every field gets put in the same place i.e. 0,0 and the records flow over both the header and footer?
I am using c#
