Hi Raman,

Thank you for contacting Syncfusion support.

Regarding tool to design word like document
:
Essential DocIO is a non-UI component that provides a full-fledged document instance model similar to the Microsoft Office COM libraries to iterate with the document elements explicitly and perform necessary manipulation.
Essential DocIO is a native .NET Word library that is used by developers to create, read, write, and convert the Word documents.

Regarding has merge fields option:
You can create a Word document template using Microsoft Word application or by adding merge fields in the Word document programmatically.

Please refer the below UG documentation link to know more about working with TextFormField in Word document using DocIO:
https://help.syncfusion.com/file-formats/docio/working-with-mail-merge

Kindly provide us the following details,
1.Could you please confirm us whether you need to design Word document template with the help of UI component
2.Kindly, provide us whether you are designing the Word document in Windows Forms ot other platforms?
3.Could you please share us the simple template.

Based on the above details, we will check the feasibility to achieve your end requirement and provide you the proper solution at the earliest.

Please let us know if you have any other quires.

Poorani Rajendran

Hi Raman,

Thank you for your update.

To meet your requirement, we suggest you use SfRichTextBocAdv control to view and edit the content in Word document and can import and export the Word documents. And you can perform mail merge in Word document programmatically using Essential DocIO. We have prepared a sample application for the same and it can be downloaded from the below link:
https://www.syncfusion.com/downloads/support/forum/147338/ze/InsertMergeField-1804901966

Note: Please find the input Word document in the “Sample” folder of above sample application.

In this sample, we have done the following things:
1. Loads an existing template Word document.
2. Click “Mail merge” button to perform mail merge process for the input Word document
3. Click “Insert merge field” button to insert mail merge field in the Word document.
4. Click “Save Document” button to save the Word document.
5.Saves and closes the Word document instance.

Please refer the below documentation link to know about how to use WPF SfRichTextBoxAdv control in Windows Forms application

https://www.syncfusion.com/kb/5909/how-to-use-wpf-sfrichtextboxadv-control-in-windows-forms-application

Please let us know if you have any other questions.

2) Do you have now ms word like UI tool to design document template. like shown in sample.

i want to design this using our .net application. not from ms word.

Hi Raman,

The Word document is a flow document in which contents will not be preserved page by page; instead, the contents will be preserved sequentially section by section. Each section may extend to various pages based on its contents like table, text, images etc. So, we unable to calculate or find the page wise quantity or subtotal using DocIO.

Reg - Do you have now ms word like UI tool to design document template. like shown in sample.
Yes, we have an Editor control to open and edit the Word document and again save as Word document formats.

Please refer the below link to know more about the same.
