PHPWord is a library written in pure PHP that provides a set of classes to write to and read from different document file formats. The current version of PHPWord supports Microsoft [Office Open XML](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Office_Open_XML) (OOXML or OpenXML), OASIS [Open Document Format for Office Applications](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/OpenDocument) (OpenDocument or ODF), [Rich Text Format](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rich_Text_Format) (RTF), HTML, and PDF.
PHPWord is an open source project licensed under the terms of [LGPL version 3](https://github.com/PHPOffice/PHPWord/blob/develop/COPYING.LESSER). PHPWord is aimed to be a high quality software product by incorporating [continuous integration](https://travis-ci.org/PHPOffice/PHPWord) and [unit testing](http://phpoffice.github.io/PHPWord/coverage/develop/). You can learn more about PHPWord by reading the [Developers' Documentation](http://phpword.readthedocs.org/) and the [API Documentation](http://phpoffice.github.io/PHPWord/docs/develop/).

```json
{
"require": {
"phpoffice/phpword": "dev-master"
}
}
```
Alternatively, you can download the latest release from the [releases page](https://github.com/PHPOffice/PHPWord/releases).
In this case, you will have to register the autoloader.
```php
require_once 'path/to/PhpWord/src/PhpWord/Autoloader.php';
\PhpOffice\PhpWord\Autoloader::register();
```
## Getting started
The following is a basic usage example of the PHPWord library.
```php
<?php
require_once 'src/PhpWord/Autoloader.php';
\PhpOffice\PhpWord\Autoloader::register();
// Creating the new document...
$phpWord = new \PhpOffice\PhpWord\PhpWord();
/* Note: any element you append to a document must reside inside of a Section. */
// Adding an empty Section to the document...
$section = $phpWord->addSection();
// Adding Text element to the Section having font styled by default...
$section->addText(
htmlspecialchars(
'"Learn from yesterday, live for today, hope for tomorrow. '
. 'The important thing is not to stop questioning." '
. '(Albert Einstein)'
)
);
/*
* Note: it's possible to customize font style of the Text element you add in three ways:
* - inline;
* - using named font style (new font style object will be implicitly created);
* - using explicitly created font style object.
*/
// Adding Text element with font customized inline...
$section->addText(
htmlspecialchars(
'"Great achievement is usually born of great sacrifice, '
. 'and is never the result of selfishness." '
. '(Napoleon Hill)'
),
array('name' => 'Tahoma', 'size' => 10)
);
// Adding Text element with font customized using named font style...
$fontStyleName = 'oneUserDefinedStyle';
$phpWord->addFontStyle(
$fontStyleName,
array('name' => 'Tahoma', 'size' => 10, 'color' => '1B2232', 'bold' => true)
);
$section->addText(
htmlspecialchars(
'"The greatest accomplishment is not in never falling, '
. 'but in rising again after you fall." '
. '(Vince Lombardi)'
),
$fontStyleName
);
// Adding Text element with font customized using explicitly created font style object...
$fontStyle = new \PhpOffice\PhpWord\Style\Font();
$fontStyle->setBold(true);
$fontStyle->setName('Tahoma');
$fontStyle->setSize(13);
$myTextElement = $section->addText(
htmlspecialchars('"Believe you can and you\'re halfway there." (Theodor Roosevelt)')
);
$myTextElement->setFontStyle($fontStyle);
// Saving the document as OOXML file...
$objWriter = \PhpOffice\PhpWord\IOFactory::createWriter($phpWord, 'Word2007');
$objWriter->save('helloWorld.docx');
// Saving the document as ODF file...
$objWriter = \PhpOffice\PhpWord\IOFactory::createWriter($phpWord, 'ODText');
$objWriter->save('helloWorld.odt');
// Saving the document as HTML file...
$objWriter = \PhpOffice\PhpWord\IOFactory::createWriter($phpWord, 'HTML');
$objWriter->save('helloWorld.html');
/* Note: we skip RTF, because it's not XML-based and requires a different example. */
/* Note: we skip PDF, because "HTML-to-PDF" approach is used to create PDF documents. */
```
:warning: Escape any string you pass to OOXML/ODF/HTML document, otherwise it may get broken.
