// or
$contents = $view->render();

$headers = array(
    "Content-type"=>"text/html",
    "Content-Disposition"=>"attachment;Filename=survey.doc"
);

$content = $contents;

  $phpWord = new \PhpOffice\PhpWord\PhpWord();

Can you print the value of $content, does it contain a <body>tag?

@troosan - I'm facing a similar kind of issue and also posted the question here https://github.com/PHPOffice/PHPWord/issues/2134 Can you please help me out? my string doesn't contain the <body> tag.

I'm getting the below errors:
