The table border style is not being preserved in the export to Word function
📝 Ask a question
I would like to know if there is a way to use the Word import function, whether through REST or a direct button in the editor, while preserving all the border styles of a table.
I've tried several methods, but regardless of the style applied to the table borders, the generated DOCX always comes with the same default border.
The main requirement is a table with external borders but no borders for the columns. I haven't found any solution that doesn't involve manually modifying the generated XML.
So, I wanted to know if there is any other way, such as a specific plugin, or if the REST service truly cannot achieve this. Additionally, is there any forecast for the implementation of this improvement?
For the examples, I used the documentation from: CKEditor Export to Word.
Illustrating:
- Editor
- Border Styles
- DOCX
- I'd like something like that
Sorry, but I still have doubts. These two tasks solve issues in the editor, but regarding the REST service export to Word, is this really a limitation? Can't we keep the border styles defined in the editor?
Hi, as this is connected with premium features, please always contact support first.
I summed up the issues in https://github.com/ckeditor/ckeditor5/issues/16810.
AFAIR, next week we plan to update the export to word to handle tables better, still most likely you would need to implement this solution until we merge it to the editor. Stay tuned!
