Changes in version 0.7.5                        

Word

  - drop deprecated seqfield argument in run_word_field() and remove
    run_seqfield() (old duplicate of run_word_field()) .

RTF

  - RTF sections were debugged and now behave correctly: page
    orientation, columns, margins and per-section headers / footers all
    apply as expected, including multi-column layouts (#726, thanks to
    Nathan Kosiba).

  - New paragraph style API for RTF, aligned with
    docx_set_paragraph_style() on the Word side.
    rtf_set_paragraph_style() is now exported and takes style_id,
    style_name, base_on, fp_p, fp_t and outline_level; rtf_styles_info()
    returns the document's style table. rtf_add() accepts a style
    argument so paragraphs (character, factor, double, fpar, block_list)
    can reference a named style. rtf_doc() registers built-in
    "heading 1" / "heading 2" / "heading 3" styles with \outlinelevel
    values, so styled paragraphs feed Word's navigation pane and TOC
    field. Use rtf_set_paragraph_style() after rtf_doc() to override a
    built-in style; the row keyed by style_id is updated in place.

  - rtf_add() now accepts [block_toc()] objects and emits a TOC field in
    the RTF stream, in parity with body_add_toc() for Word. Word
    populates the table at open time using the outline levels carried by
    the built-in heading styles; LibreOffice does not render the TOC
    automatically.

Excel features

  - Images and ggplot drawings placed on Excel sheets with
    sheet_add_drawing() can now be anchored to cells. Pass anchor =
    "B2:H20" (a cell range) to make the drawing move and size with
    cells, Excel's default behaviour. Pass anchor = "B2" (a single cell)
    to make it move but keep its own size. Omit anchor for the previous
    fixed-position layout. The edit_as argument controls what happens
    when rows or columns are resized. The same options are available to
    charts inserted via 'mschart'.
  - Excel sheets can host the chartEx chart family (boxplot, funnel,
    histogram, pareto, sunburst, treemap, waterfall) in addition to the
    classic chart types. The new helper ooxml_chart_uris() returns the
    identifiers needed by xlsx_drawing to wire either family.
  - Two new building blocks for packages that emit OOXML directly (such
    as 'mschart'): solid_fill(color) returns a DrawingML solid-fill
    fragment with optional alpha; to_pml() now has an sp_line method
    exposing line-properties conversion that was previously internal.

                 Changes in version 0.7.4 (2026-04-24)                  

Features

Excel

  - new functions sheet_write_data() and sheet_add_drawing() for writing
    data and inserting drawings (charts, vector graphics) into xlsx
    workbooks. sheet_write_data() is an S3 generic: beside data.frame,
    it also accepts a character vector (one cell per element, vertical
    by default; direction = "horizontal" for a row), an [fpar()]
    (richtext inline cell honouring bold, italic, underline,
    strikethrough, size, colour, font, sub/superscript) and a
    [block_list()] (one cell per fpar item, stacked).
    sheet_add_drawing() has an external_img method and a gg method.
  - new function sheet_remove() to delete a sheet from an xlsx workbook.
    add_sheet() is purely additive and never drops any sheet; call
    sheet_remove() explicitly if the template's default sheet is not
    wanted.

Word

  - write_docx_settings() now preserves the existing settings.xml
    content instead of rebuilding it from scratch. This fixes the loss
    of embedded font settings, math properties, footnote/endnote
    settings and other XML elements during docx roundtrips (#554).
  - new function docx_embed_font() to embed TrueType or OpenType font
    files into Word documents. Embedded fonts ensure correct rendering
    on systems where the font is not installed (#554).

Word & PowerPoint

  - new functions list_item(), block_list_items() and body_add_list() to
    create bullet or numbered lists with rich text (fpar) and
    multi-level nesting. Works in both Word and PowerPoint documents
    (#314).

Formatting properties

  - fp_par() and fp_par_lite() gain first_line and hanging arguments to
    control paragraph first-line and hanging indents (in points).
    Honored by the Word, PowerPoint, HTML and RTF renderers. hanging
    wins when both are provided (flextable #704).

Issues

  - sheet_select() now deselects other sheets, fixing the issue where
    multiple tabs appeared selected when opening the workbook.

                 Changes in version 0.7.3 (2026-01-16)                  

Features

  - function remove_slide() now supports deletion of multiple slides
    thanks to Wahiduzzaman Khan (#691).
  - add cursor_reach_index() to set the cursor at a specific index
    position in the document (#574).
  - set_doc_properties() gains a new argument hyperlink_base to set the
    base URL for relative hyperlinks in Word documents. doc_properties()
    now returns the HyperlinkBase property when available (#630).

Issues

  - fix feed_from_xml for 'officedown'.
  - remove_field argument of function docx_summary() now work as
    expected.
  - also remove relationships in sanitize_images() (#708).
  - Package now supports read-only installations (e.g., when installed
    as root or via Nix). Previously, attempting to create presentations
    would fail with permission errors in read-only environments (#706).

Changes

  - Defunct function docx_reference_img().

                 Changes in version 0.7.2 (2025-12-04)                  

Issues

  - RTF support strike text setting.
  - fix an issue with bookmark selections in docx_summary().
  - fix fp_par_lite() management of argument tabs.
  - there was a regression with svg in docx, it is solved now.

Features

  - new internal utilities base64_to_image(), as_base64(), from_base64()
    and plot_in_png().

                 Changes in version 0.7.1 (2025-11-14)                  

Features

  - new function floating_external_img() to add a floating image in a
    'Word' document.

Changes

  - Refactoring of docx_summary(): the function now provide more
    run-level information (text formatting, images, hyperlinks,
    bookmarks).
  - Refactoring of sanitize_images(): the function now works as
    expected. It will be unexported soon since it is now automatically
    called before writing documents and is therefore no longer useful to
    end users.
  - Remove defunct slip_in* functions.

Issues

  - Fix RTF sections that were sometimes invisible
  - issue with image in google docs should now be fixed (#689)
  - add automatically namespaces when calling
    write_elements_to_context()
  - Fix lists styles with body_import_docx() thanks to Sean Anderson.

                 Changes in version 0.7.0 (2025-09-03)                  

Features

  - new function docx_set_settings() to set document settings of a Word
    document. This function can be used to specify if the document
    should handle odd and even headers and footers, to change the list
    separator, etc.
  - new function body_import_docx() to import content from an external
    Word document.
  - fp_text() now supports strike argument to set strikethrough text.
  - ph_with() now handles Date objects without prior conversion to
    character. The date format can be set locally via the date_format
    arg or globally via options(officer.date_format = ...) (#683)

Issues

  - Fix Rmd output with paragraphs fpar() so that no stylename is used.
  - Improve set_doc_properties() error and warning messages.
  - page_size() now manage correctly sizes if orient = "landscape" and
    not unit = "in".
  - phs_with() and add_slide() now have a more informative error message
    if the ph label is unknown (#672)
  - Function set_doc_properties() now supports NULL and NA custom
    properties in a Word document.
  - argument separator is not used anymore in block_toc. Now the Word
    field is generated with no separator making it more portable over
    the different locales Word users could have.

                 Changes in version 0.6.10 (2025-05-30)                 

Issues

  - Fix RTF generation so that fp_par_lite() works also for RTF output.
  - Fix doc_summary(... detailed=TRUE) when the runs has a shading
    (w:shd) with a fill but no color attribute.
  - plot_layout_properties(): new slide_idx arg to specify which slide's
    layout to plot. The plot title now also contains the master's name
    (#666)

                 Changes in version 0.6.9 (2025-05-21)                  

Features

  - New functions body_append_start_context(),
    write_elements_to_context() and body_append_stop_context() to append
    elements at the end of a Word document in a faster way. This is
    useful when the document is large and the user wants to only append
    elements at the end of the document.
  - New function block_gg() to add a ggplot object to a Word document.
    It is handy when the user wants to add a ggplot object to a Word
    document with new function write_elements_to_context().
  - New function fp_par_lite() to create a paragraph formatting object
    with only the properties that are needed. It is useful when the user
    wants to create a paragraph object with only the properties that are
    needed and not all the properties. It can also be used to create a
    paragraph formatting object that reuse a style but with some
    modifications.
  - Function print.rdocx() gains new arguments copy_header_refs and
    copy_footer_refs to copy header and footer references from the
    default section to other sections. This should be useful when the
    user wants to add sections but also propagate the header and footer
    references.

Performances

  - Refactored body_add.block_list() to speed up the process of adding a
    block list to a Word document, optimization of the process is made
    by minimizing call to docx_current_block_xml().
  - print.rdocx() execution time improvements.

Issues

  - add_slide(): It now suffices to specify a unique layout. The master
    will be inferred automatically.
    Also, the default values for the layout ("Title and Content") and
    master ("Office Theme") arg were removed. They only applied to the
    default pptx template used by read_pptx(). To avoid breaking changes
    in old code, add_slide() now throws a deprecation warning, if no
    layout is specified (either via the layout arg or by setting a
    default layout). It then uses the layout arg's former default value
    ("Title and Content"). This makes sure, that the behavior of
    add_slide() does not change and avoids backward compatibility issues
    (#635)
  - layout_default() sets a default layout for add_slide() (#635).
  - print.rpptx now uses pluralization and marks the default layout (if
    set by layout_default()) with an asterisk (#635)
  - Fixed docx_summary() when a text run is associated with a text style
    and when paragraph or text styles are not registered in the Word
    document style table (thanks to Kaspar Meili).
  - plot_layout_properties() now takes cex as a vector or a list and
    matches by position, name or partial name. Zero values now hide the
    text. A single value now applies to all three cex parameters (label,
    type, and id) (#645)
  - plot_layout_properties() now shows the default layout, if one is set
    and there are not slides yet (#645)
  - Default page size is now set to exact A4 format for Word documents:
    11906 / 1440 and 16838 / 1440 instead of 21 / 2.54 and 29.7 / 2.54.

Changes

  - Deprecate function docx_reference_img() as it is no longer useful..

                 Changes in version 0.6.8 (2025-03-23)                  

Issues

  - Simplified input format for location arg in ph_with_* functions
    (#623). Instead of a location object created by the ph_location_*
    function family, ph_with_* functions now resolves certain short form
    input into corresponding location objects. For example, instead of
    using ph_location_label("<label>") you can now simply pass the
    "<label>" to the location arg. The functionn will convert the string
    into the corresponding location object automatically. Other examples
    are "body [1]" for ph_location_type(type = "body", type_idx = 1), or
    the integer 1 for ph_location_id(id = 1)
  - Add slide_visible() to get and set the visibility of slides (#622).
  - debug selector for ph_remove() (see #625) that was not working for
    rvg outputs.
  - phs_with: filling multiple placeholders on one or more slides at
    once using key-value pair syntax (#639).
  - add_slide: new args ... and .dots, both passed to phs_with to create
    slide and fill placeholders in one step (#639).
  - add support for pdf in office extensions (#613).

Internals

  - remove old visual tests

                 Changes in version 0.6.7 (2024-10-09)                  

Issues

  - store paddings as numeric values and not integer values.
  - remove_fields in docx_summary() now also removes "w:fldData" nodes.
  - complete the manual of body_add_docx() with a note about the file
    basename that can not contain ' ' and trigger an error if it
    contains a ' '.
  - plot_layout_properties() gains a 'title' parameter, which will add
    the layout name as the plot title. Defaults to FALSE, to not alter
    the old behavior. Also, the slide width and height are now correctly
    displayed in the plot. Before, a box was drawn around the plot area.
    However, the plot area var with device size, not slide size.
  - class dir_collection: Files are now added to a container in the
    order of their trailing numeric index (#596). For example,
    slideLayout2.xml will now preceed slideLayout10.xml. Before,
    alphabetical sorting was used, where slideLayout10.xml comes before
    slideLayout2.xml.
  - layout_properties() now returns all placeholders in case of multiple
    master (#597). Also, the internal xfrmize() now sorts the resulting
    data by placeholder position. This yields an intuitive order, with
    placeholders sorted from top to bottom and left to right.
  - ph_location_type() now throws an error if the id for a type is out
    of range (#602) and a more informative error message if the type is
    not present in layout (#601).
  - plot_layout_properties() assignment order fixed for labels= FALSE
    (#604)
  - layout_properties() gains a type_idx column to index phs of the same
    type on a layout. Indexing is performed based on ph position,
    following a top-to-bottom, left-to-right order (#606).
  - plot_layout_properties() plots more information by default now:
    layout name, ph label, ph id, ph type + index by default (#606).
  - ph_location_type(): new type_idx arg replaces the deprecated id arg
    (#606).
  - Add ph_location_id() as a new member to the ph_location_* family. It
    references a placeholder via its unique id (#606).
  - plot_layout_properties(): Now accepts the layout index (see
    layout_summary()) as an alternative to the layout name. Gains an
    argument legend to add a legend to the plot. Also prints the current
    slide's layout by default now, if not layout name is provided
    explicitly (#595).

Features

  - layout_rename_ph_labels() to rename ph labels (#610).
  - add layout_dedupe_ph_labels() to handle duplicate placeholder labels
    (#589). By default, it will only detect duplicate labels, but apply
    no changes. With action = "rename", it auto-renames duplicate labels
    and action = "delete" deletes duplicates, only keeping their first
    occurrence.
  - new convenience functions body_replace_gg_at_bkm() and
    body_replace_plot_at_bkm() to replace text content enclosed in a
    bookmark with a ggplot or a base plot.
  - add unit (in, cm, mm) argument in function page_size().

                 Changes in version 0.6.6 (2024-05-05)                  

Issues

  - Fix. docx_summary preserves non-breaking hyphens. Non-breaking
    hyphens are replaced with a hyphen-minus (Unicode character 002D).
    Closes #573.
  - docx_summary() gains parameter 'detailed' which allows to get a
    detailed summary including formatting properties of runs in a
    paragraph. Formatting properties are stored in a list column run,
    where each element is a dataframe with rows corresponding to a
    single run and columns containing the information on formatting
    properties.
  - Fix. Add alt text to ggplot's added to a pptx with ph_with.gg.
    Closes #556.
  - embedded image in PPT can now be associated with an hyperlink
  - add a check to block_pour_docx() to avoid working with file paths
    containing '&'.

Features

  - add coverage to rtf, contributions from Davide Garolini at roche.
  - cursor_reach() gains new argument fixed to enable exact matching. It
    defaults to FALSE for backward compatibility.
  - remove_slide() gains new argument rm_images to enable images
    deletion from ppt/media.
  - new function body_comment() adds a comment on an existing paragraph
    at the cursor position.
  - docx_summary() gains parameter 'remove_field' to prevent field codes
    from appearing in the returned data.frame.

                 Changes in version 0.6.5 (2024-02-24)                  

Features

  - new function fp_tabs() to enable tabulation marks settings with
    flextable (for Word and RTF).

Issues

  - let the package be used with R < 4 by not using \(x) syntax

                 Changes in version 0.6.4 (2024-02-05)                  

Features

  - fp_border() gains support for all line border styles listed in
    ECMA-376 section 17.18.2 and allowed CSS border styles. Closes #165
    and #443.

Changes

  - the dataframe returned by docx_comments() gains a list column
    para_id containing the id(s) of the parent paragraph(s). A possible
    breaking change is that the commented_text is now returned as a list
    column to account for comments spanning multiple runs. The docs gain
    a description of the columns of the returned dataframe.
  - opts_current_table() now ignore 'Quarto' setting.

Issues

  - Fix. Refactor docx_comments() to (properly) account for comments
    spanning multiple paragraphs, multiple comments in the same
    paragraph and replies. Closes #541.
  - Check and stop if fp_text_lite() is using a shading.color but no
    color.
  - Check used style in body_add_caption().
  - fix ph_remove(), ph_slidelink() and ph_hyperlink() that were not
    working since the latest refactoring.
  - Use fake attribute stlname if available in docx_summary().
  - calls to file.copy(from = "template/*.xml") are now done with
    argument copy.mode = FALSE for compatibility with 'nix'.

                 Changes in version 0.6.3 (2023-10-22)                  

Features

  - new function run_comment() to create a run with a comment.
  - new function docx_comments() to read comments in a Word document as
    a data.frame.
  - Add pptx support for invalid pptx files downloaded from
    https://slides.new.

Issues

  - Internal function is_doc_open() replaces is_office_doc_edited() to
    check if a document is open on Windows. This solves the issue where
    RStudio crashed while trying to write to an open Office document.
  - Add option preserve to preserve cell line breaks to docx_summary().
  - fix ph_hyperlink() when several hyperlinks are inside one slide and
    refactored ph_remove().

                 Changes in version 0.6.2 (2023-03-28)                  

Issues

  - encode char to rtf from 128 instead of 256
  - force 'firstLineChars' to 0 so that Chinese users don't get unwanted
    first indentation.
  - avoid segfaults with SVG images by using the function
    image_read_svg() when source is SVG in external_img().

                 Changes in version 0.6.1 (2023-03-08)                  

Features

  - add support for flextable in block_list().
  - add RTF support for run_autonum() and run_reference(), this enables
    captions support for flextable.

Changes

  - 'ragg' is used instead of base png because it manages any fonts.
  - defunct slip_in_footnote().

Issues

  - fix for to_wml.block_caption()

                 Changes in version 0.6.0 (2023-02-17)                  

Features

  - add RTF support, see rtf_doc() and rtf_add().

Internals

  - provides image_to_base64() and uuid_generate() as a tool for other
    'officeverse' packages.
  - styles are now injected as is and updated with process_stylenames(),
    this allow to depend on a reference doc (now
    convert_custom_styles_in_wml()).

                 Changes in version 0.5.2 (2023-01-27)                  

Features

  - if magick is available and argument guess_size=TRUE, image size is
    read and do not need to be provided.

  - fix body_add() content order.
  - fix issue with properties in 'Office' documents.
  - check arguments of run_autonum() and add tests.
  - update only officer sections

Internals

  - remove $get_at_cursor()

                 Changes in version 0.5.1 (2023-01-06)                  

Issues

  - manage also even/first/default sections not defined with officer
    (indicate there is even/first/default parts).
  - fix behavior regression with headers and footers
    replace_text_at_bkm. The previous behavior "don't trigger an error
    if a bookmark is missing" is back.
  - force Word default continuous section if no type is specified and
    first page footer/header if it is seen.
  - drop "Compatibility Mode" from Word documents.

Changes

  - Change license to MIT.
  - drop internal get_at_cursor()
  - use images sha1 value for filename with package 'openssl'. This
    should fix issues with duplicated images basenames, or non utf
    names, etc.

Features

  - export shape_properties_tags() for pptx extentions.

                 Changes in version 0.5.0 (2022-12-20)                  

New features

    them in the relevant documents.

Issues

  - close 'Slide Master View' automatically.
  - more careful reading of document properties
  - fix cursor behavior, when pos='before', cursor is now set on element
    added 'before'. Internals about cursors have been refactored.

Changes

  - function slip_in_footnote() is deprecated. Use run_footnote()
    instead.

                 Changes in version 0.4.4 (2022-09-09)                  

New features

  - fp_par() now have argument word_style
  - add support for ln for external_img provided by Angus Moore
  - add word_title and word_description to table properties
    (prop_table()). These values can be used as alternative text for
    Word tables. These values can also be set as "knitr" chunk options.

Issues

  - fix for is_office_doc_edited() provided by Andrew Tungate.
  - tab.lp is no more set to null with usual rmarkdown outputs
  - autofit was never used when outputting prop_table to xml

Changes

                 Changes in version 0.4.3 (2022-06-12)                  

New features

  - set_doc_properties() now supports any character property. It
    provides an easy way to insert arbitrary fields. Given the
    challenges that can be encountered with find-and-replace in word
    with officer, the use of document fields and quick text fields
    provides a much more robust approach to automatic document
    generation from R.
  - Adding support for fields (e.g. auto slide number) in Powerpoint
    (#429), see empty_content().
  - add functionality to set shape geometry and outline, see
    ph_location(geam=...).
