PSWriteWord - PowerShell Module

New version of this module will be developed under PSWriteOffice project. This module will no longer be developed! It has been replaced by PSWriteOffice project which will be combination of Word, Excel and in future PowerPoint features. No new features, fixes will be added, but it will continue to work. Due to license changes to DLL it's not possible to support this project. PSWriteOffice is complete rewrite and cross-platform.


PSWriteWord is PowerShell module to create Microsoft Word documents without Microsoft Word installed. You can read some more information on my website.

Requirements

  • Works only on Windows (as NET CORE is not supported by DLL) - until Xceed ads that to their version. Which will take a while for the free version to have (if ever).
  • Works only on PowerShell 5.1

Systems it should run on (marked those confirmed to run)

Windows Client Systems

Windows Server Systems

Credits

This module is based on DocX from Xceed Software (https://github.com/xceedsoftware/DocX). DocX is the free, open source version of Xceed Words for .NET. Originally written by Cathal Coffey, and maintained by Przemyslaw Klys (me), it is now maintained by Xceed. This also means any bugs / issues with C# version of it will be available in PSWriteWord. On the other hand since Xceed releases new versions of DocX (just a few versions behind the pay version) it means eventually PSWriteWord will get even more features. This also means that if something is not yet available in commands that are listed below or are incomplete you can take the .net approach and simply use it that way.
