PHPWord Document Templates Overview
The ARP (Anugerah Remaja Perdana) module uses PHPWord TemplateProcessor to process pre-formatted .docx Word templates and output customized participant logbooks and report documents.
Key Concepts
- Master
.docxTemplate: Designers edit standard Word documents (.docx) containing placeholder variables enclosed in${...}syntax (e.g.,${participant_name},${ic_number}). - TemplateProcessor Engine: PHPWord loads the
.docxfile, parses the internaldocument.xmlstructure, replaces variable tags, clones table rows dynamically, and injects image streams. - Output Formats: Outputs downloadable
.docxfiles or streams them to LibreOffice / PDF converters.
