How to Add Text to Docx Document in C# language

This C# tutorial shows how to insert text and paragraph to MS Word document.

All the text style (such as text font size, font weight, text color) and paragraph style (such as text alignment, line height, first line indent, borders) can be defined for the whole doucment, or just be customized for the target paragraph.

You can add text to .docx file using TextInline object, Paragraph object, and using WordDocumentBuilder object.

WordDocumentBuilder is flow content manager, so if there is much more content out of one Word page size, the left content will be added to the second page automatically.

WordDocument document = new WordDocument();
WordDocumentBuilder builder = new WordDocumentBuilder(document);

//Set global style for text and paragraph
builder.CharacterState.FontFamily = new ThemableFontFamily("Arial");
builder.CharacterState.FontSize = 16;
builder.ParagraphState.LineSpacing = 1.2;
builder.ParagraphState.FirstLineIndent = 40;

//Insert text using builder directly
builder.InsertText("Nomal text. ");
//Insert one line with text, it will add line break automatically
builder.InsertLine("Nomal line with auto line break. ");
//So the text below will be added in a second paragraph
builder.InsertText("Nomal text. ");

//Insert text using TextInline object
TextInline textInline = new TextInline(document);
textInline.Text = "This text content is using TextInline object. ";
textInline.FontSize = 20;
builder.InsertInline(textInline);

//Insert text with customized style
builder.InsertText("Times New Roman, ").FontFamily = new ThemableFontFamily("Times New Roman");
builder.InsertText("bold, ").FontWeight = FontWeights.Bold;
builder.InsertText("italic, ").FontStyle = FontStyles.Italic;
builder.InsertText("underline, ").Underline.Pattern = UnderlinePattern.Single;
builder.InsertText("colors ").ForegroundColor = new ThemableColor(Color.FromRgb(255, 0, 0));

//Add several paragraphs to page
for (int i = 0; i < 20; i++)
{
    builder.InsertParagraph();
    for (int j = 1; j < 11; j++)
    {
        builder.InsertText("This is sentence " + j.ToString() + ". ");       
    }
}           

WordFile wordFile = new WordFile();
using (var stream = File.OpenWrite("AddText.docx"))
{
    wordFile.Export(document, stream);
}
