Why use docxtemplater?

Generate your reports/contracts/documents

With docxtemplater, you write a document template using Word or Powerpoint and filling it with tags such as `{user}`. The templating engine will take your input data as JSON and generate a document with all fields replaced by their values

Add conditions, images, HTML or subtemplates

  • Write loops and conditions : `{#user.age > 18}User is allowed{/}`
  • Add images with : `{%image}`
  • Add HTML with : `{~html}`
  • Include another Word/Powerpoint document with : `{:include doc}`
See docs for the list of all modules.

Easy to install and maintain

In a few minutes you can install docxtemplater, create your first template and generate some docx from javascript objects or JSON. Creating or modifying a template will not require you to ask a developper to do it.

Runs on Node 10+ and major browsers

docxtemplater is tested with all active Node.js versions 10 up to version 16, and in modern browsers (Chrome,Firefox,Safari,IE9+).
There also is a docker service.

Frequently asked questions

Is there a way to test the software or have a free trial ?

We do not provide a free trial period, but we do have two week 100% money back guarantee. We also provide a live demo site which has multiple modules enabled, for example, you have a demo specific for the HTML module. On the demo site, you can also upload your own templates, which makes it quite good to see if it would work well for your usecase. If something is missing on the demo site, we can show it to you on a video call a time that works for both of us (contact us per email).

What is the difference between plans and modules ?

Docxtemplater is an open-source project, which has basic features for templating. All paid features come in forms of modules, for example the HTML module allows to insert formatted text with bold, italic, links. All modules can be bought separately for a yearly fee. There are also two plans, the PRO plan and the ENTREPRISE plan that gives you access to a set of modules.

Does the license allow me to use the software in a SaaS product ?

Yes, the license model is suitable for Software as a Service businesses. As long as you are the entity running docxtemplater software, you can use the standard licenses.

If you need to redistribute the software by installing the software on your customers servers, this will need a specific "appliance" license. The standard license does not allow to redistribute the software. The Appliance license plan is 4500€ per year for PRO and 10000€ per year for ENTREPRISE version. It allows you to distribute the modules contained in the PRO or ENTREPRISE module as part of your application. You are not allowed to resell the modules as is.

What kind of support will I get ?

For any purchase that you make (Plan or Module), you will get included support per email to answer all your questions. Usually, we respond in 24 hours, on business days. Bugfixes are also included in the support plan. For new features, it depends whether the feature makes sense for other customers and if the time required to implement it is not too long.

To have faster answers, please include the used modules, the template document, the generated document, or the expected output, your JSON data, and code relevant to the generation.

How will I get access to the modules ?

The modules are installed via npm, you will receive a secret, unique url with wich you can do so you will do : npm install --save <secret-url>.

The compiled files for browser usage are also bundled inside the package.

Can I convert the generated document to a PDF file ?

It is not possible to convert docx to PDF with docxtemplater, because docxtemplater is a templating engine and doesn’t know how to render a given document. We recommend to use libreoffice headless for a free tool or PDFTron for a paid alternative.
