What is TX Text Control Reporting?

TX Text Control Reporting is a document automation solution for designing reusable templates and generating personalized Word and PDF documents from application data.

When should I use Reporting and MailMerge?

Use it when your application needs invoices, statements, contracts, certificates, forms, correspondence, or other personalized documents generated consistently at scale.

Does reporting require Microsoft Word or Microsoft Office?

No. Templates use Word-compatible document technology, but document generation runs through TX Text Control and does not require Microsoft Office on the server.

Can users design templates in a browser?

Yes. The browser-based WYSIWYG editor lets users create and maintain templates with familiar formatting, tables, fields, sections, headers, footers, images, and other document elements.

Are templates compatible with Microsoft Word?

Yes. Templates can be created, loaded, and edited using Word-compatible document formats such as DOCX, DOC, and RTF.

Can templates contain images, formulas, and repeating content?

Yes. Templates can contain merge fields, merge blocks, images, formulas, tables, repeating rows, conditional content, charts, and barcodes.

Which data sources can be used for MailMerge?

MailMerge supports structured data including JSON, XML, and IEnumerable objects. Master-detail relationships can be represented through merge blocks and related data.

Can I sort and filter data while merging?

Yes. Merge block settings support sorting, filtering, and conditional rendering so the template can control which data appears in the generated document.

Can I generate many documents in one operation?

Yes. The reporting engine is designed for batch generation and high-volume document workflows while keeping template and data processing programmable.

Which output formats are supported?

Reports can be generated as DOCX, DOC, RTF, TX, HTML, Markdown, and PDF documents. PDF/A is available for archival scenarios, and PDF/UA supports accessible PDF workflows.

Can I generate PDF and PDF/A documents from templates?

Yes. Templates can be merged with data and exported to PDF or PDF/A for print-ready, archivable, and distribution workflows.

Can reports be generated without a user interface?

Yes. Server-side APIs support automated document generation and conversion without opening a desktop application or displaying a user interface.

Which platforms can host the reporting engine?

The reporting engine can be integrated into ASP.NET Core and ASP.NET applications and deployed on supported Windows and Linux environments, including Docker and cloud infrastructure.

Is there a programmable API?

Yes. The complete reporting workflow is programmable, including template loading, data binding, merge settings, document manipulation, conversion, and output.

Can reporting be integrated into existing enterprise applications?

Yes. TX Text Control is designed to be embedded into existing business applications and document workflows without requiring a separate reporting server or Office automation layer.
