Drawing objects are exported with id="0" after MailMerge. This produces OOXML-invalid document.

 An incorrect file is produced when merging a stream more than 40 times.

Workaround: A possible workaround could be to merge up to 40 times in one file, then continue merging in a new one, and finally merge the newly generated documents.

 

PdfFormatProvider: Export accessible PDFs.

This is the code for import/export which result is illustrated below:

HtmlFormatProvider: Styles are not correctly preserved when a <b> tag is applied to the same styled element.

Workaround: Apply bold through CSS instead of using <b>.

StackOverflowException is thrown when exporting a document with circular style links when resolving unpopulated style properties.

RadPdfProcessing already offers exception handling mechanism which allows you to handle unexpected behavior during import/export. Thus, the import/export process skips the problematic part and continues the execution. This would be a great addition to the WordsProcessing model as well. 

When a style doesn't have explicitly defined font, the font from the default character properties (\defchp) is used when present. Instead, the font used for the style should be the default font for the document, defined with \deffN tag.
The same issue occur when the doesn't contain \defchp at all. In this case, the font for the style is not imported, but instead the defined with  \deffN tag should be used.

The construction is not common, and MS Word for example doesn't produce such documents.

Implement a MarkdownFormatProvider, which will allow import/export from/to markdown format.

Currently, the export of lists to text is not supported.

Introduce new section properties which are responsible for defining columns in the section.

Respect thread culture when formatting dates with the "\@" switch during mail merge.

When importing HTML content to a RadFlowDocument and exporting it to PDF format, the following error message occurs:

System.ArgumentException: 'The document element is associated with another parent. (Parameter 'item')'

When imported in the WordsProcessing model, the current HTML doesn't respect the defined column width and all columns have identical width:

    <colgroup>
        <col span="1" style="width: 33.3302%;">
        <col span="1" style="width: 17.5658%;">
        <col span="1" style="width: 49.104%;">
    </colgroup>

Observed result:

Expected result:

Workaround: use the width property as follows:

    <colgroup>
        <col span="1" width="33.3302%">
        <col span="1" width="17.5658%">
        <col span="1" width="49.104%">
    </colgroup>

Add support for AutoTextList field.

Add support for VML shapes.

Related: Add support for Shape Group.

Shape Group is used to collect shapes and groups so they can be positioned and transformed as a single unit. A group contains group, shapetype, shape, pre-defined shape - arc, curve, image, line, oval, polyline, rect, roundrect - and lock elements.

When the object is serialized out as XML, its qualified name is v:group.

Exporting a document containing custom geometry throws a NullReferenceException, halting the export unexpectedly.

HtmlFormatProvider: Failure to import CSS rules with class names containing escape characters.

PdfFormarProvider: Justified text in a table cell is cropped on export.
