Hello, I have an issue with the PDF transformation and checkbox. After created a word document which contain checkbox, with your example here : http://www.phpdocx.com/api-documentation/templates/tick-a-checbox-Word-document It's works fine, the checkbox are still here but when i take the docx and apply the method transformDocument for getting back a PDF file, all tick checkboxes disappears... Have you an explanation ? Thank you, Adrien.

Hello, What program and version are you using? LibreOffice or OpenOffice? We have tested it with LibreOffice 4.3 and it generates the PDF perfectly with the checkboxes included. Regards.

Hello, For Linux we recommend to use LibreOffice, and with Windows OpenOffice (always with OdfConverter enabled) Regards.

On my dev environment (WINDOWS), I've tried to install LibreOffice instead of OpenOffice and i set odfConverter to FALSE and it work perfectly. By the way, if i set odfConverter to TRUE, the tick checkboxes doesn't appears on PDF ! Thank a lot for your reactivity.

Hello, If you use OpenOffice you need to enable OdfConverter, but you shouldn't use OdfConverter with LibreOffice. So there're two approachs: · LibreOffice · OpenOffice with OdfConverter Regards.
