Aspose.Words 3.6 Released

New Features

  • Added a lot of new code examples to the API. Both in C# and VB.NET. The work on code examples continues, we will eventually have examples for all members.
  • Added a new demo project DocumentExplorer. Not only it provides more example code, but it is a useful tool on its own. You can open a document in HTML or DOC format, explore the nodes of the document object model and save the document as DOC, HTML or PDF.
  • Added IMailMergeDataSource interface. Now a mail merge is possible from any custom data source.
  • Added more resiliency for opening documents that are not entirely valid.
  • Added more resiliency against creating invalid documents (empty cells, first cell merged to previous, table at end of section).
  • DocumentBuilder InsertXXX methods return the document nodes that they create.
