We launched the new Text Control documentation last weekend at [docs.textcontrol.com](https://docs.textcontrol.com/). We rebuilt the site from the ground up to help you get your first application up and running more easily, understand how the components work together, and look up an API while writing code.

### All Product Documentation in One Place

The product switcher brings together TX Text Control .NET Server, TX Text Control .NET for Windows Forms and TX Text Control .NET for WPF, TX Text Control ActiveX, DS Server, TX Spell .NET, and ReportingCloud. Pick a product from the header to go straight to its documentation.

We created the new documentation as a static website to increase speed. The pages are generated in advance and served as ready-to-read HTML, allowing the server to deliver the page as soon as it is requested. The sidebar allows you to browse or filter the documentation for the current product.

### Go from an Empty Project to Running Code

The [TX Text Control .NET Server overview](https://docs.textcontrol.com/tx-text-control-dotnet-server/overview/) explains which components run in the browser and which run on the server, when to use Core or Classic, and where to find information on supported platforms and file formats. Once you know which component you need, the [Getting Started](https://docs.textcontrol.com/tx-text-control-dotnet-server/getting-started/) section walks you through a working example. With TX Text Control, you can build a browser-based document editor, merge JSON data into a template, or generate a PDF from a .NET application.

![Getting Started shows separate tutorial paths for document processing, editing, viewing, mail merge, and PDF processing.](https://s1-www.textcontrol.com/assets/dist/blog/2026/11/10/a/assets/documentation-getting-started.jpg "Getting Started shows separate tutorial paths for document processing, editing, viewing, mail merge, and PDF processing.")

### Find Guides and API Members in One Search

Search accepts both task descriptions and API names. Type `mail merge` and you'll see results grouped into API Reference and Guides & Topics. You can jump to the `MailMerge` class or go straight to a guide on reporting, template design, or merging images. When you already know the member name, search for it directly.

![Search results for mail merge show API classes and properties alongside guides and topics.](https://s1-www.textcontrol.com/assets/dist/blog/2026/11/10/a/assets/documentation-search.jpg "Search results for mail merge show API classes and properties alongside guides and topics.")

### Code Snippets for Every API Member

The new [API Reference](https://docs.textcontrol.com/tx-text-control-dotnet-server/reference/) gives you signatures, parameter details, and copyable code snippets for every API member. On .NET reference pages you can switch between C# and VB.NET. For example, the [`MailMerge.MergeCulture` property](https://docs.textcontrol.com/tx-text-control-dotnet-server/reference/txtextcontrol-documentserver/mailmerge/mergeculture-property/) shows how to set the culture that controls number and date formatting in merged documents.

![The MergeCulture property reference shows its syntax and a full copyable C# example, with a VB.NET tab.](https://s1-www.textcontrol.com/assets/dist/blog/2026/11/10/a/assets/documentation-api-reference.jpg "The MergeCulture property reference shows its syntax and a full copyable C# example, with a VB.NET tab.")

### Go Deeper on Parallel Mail Merge and AI Integration

Our in-depth guides explain why the components behave the way they do and share practical tips for production. The [parallel mail merge guide](https://docs.textcontrol.com/tx-text-control-dotnet-server/performance/multiple-processes/) explains why threads in a single process can wait on shared resources. It shows how to move large batches into a pool of worker processes and how to choose a worker count for your workload.

![The Multiple Processes guide explains why separate worker processes can help with large mail merge batches.](https://s1-www.textcontrol.com/assets/dist/blog/2026/11/10/a/assets/documentation-parallel-mail-merge.jpg "The Multiple Processes guide explains why separate worker processes can help with large mail merge batches.")

The [AI Integration guides](https://docs.textcontrol.com/tx-text-control-dotnet-server/ai/) explain how to divide work between a language model, your application, and the document engine. They cover asking questions about a PDF or DOCX, extracting structured data, grounding answers in approved documents, and exposing document operations through an MCP server. The guides also explain where inference runs when you choose a local or hosted model.

![The AI Integration overview explains how document text, language models, document tools, and approved knowledge fit together.](https://s1-www.textcontrol.com/assets/dist/blog/2026/11/10/a/assets/documentation-ai-integration.jpg "The AI Integration overview explains how document text, language models, document tools, and approved knowledge fit together.")
