Question about copying blocks between documents (advanced version)

Posted by hsinyun · 26-11-2025 - 06:48

Hello,

I'm using the phpdocx Advanced version and have a question regarding functionality.

Is it possible to copy a complete block (including text, tables, images, etc.) from one DOCX document (word1) to another DOCX document (word2)?

If not, what is the recommended alternative method to achieve this?

Thank you.

Hello,

You can use the importContents method (https://www.phpdocx.com/api-documentation/docx-path/import-contents-in-docx) to import contents from a DOCX.
In this case, you'd need to generate and use a custom XPath query with the customQuery option to get all contents between the block placeholders you want to import.

Regards.
