Update of Word directory #348

Closed DevMaster-YangJie closed 8 months ago

DevMaster-YangJie commented 8 months ago

May I ask if docx templates can automatically update directories in Word? The table of contents contains page numbers

jjhbw commented 8 months ago

AFAIK only Word can do that when saving the document, because the document needs to be rendered completely to know the number of pages. This library cant render the document like Word, so it cant know the number of pages. And you need to know the number of pages to update the page numbers in the table of contents.

Closing this issue because i think that should answer your question. Just @ me if you want to know more.
