<a name="basic-usage"></a>
#### Basic usage

The following is a basic example of the PHPWord library.

```php
$PHPWord = new PHPWord();

// Every element you want to append to the word document is placed in a section.
// To create a basic section:
$section = $PHPWord->createSection();

// After creating a section, you can append elements:
$section->addText('Hello world!');

// You can directly style your text by giving the addText function an array:
$section->addText('Hello world! I am formatted.',
    array('name'=>'Tahoma', 'size'=>16, 'bold'=>true));

// If you often need the same style again you can create a user defined style
// to the word document and give the addText function the name of the style:
$PHPWord->addFontStyle('myOwnStyle',
    array('name'=>'Verdana', 'size'=>14, 'color'=>'1B2232'));
$section->addText('Hello world! I am formatted by a user defined style',
    'myOwnStyle');

// You can also put the appended element to local object like this:
$fontStyle = new PHPWord_Style_Font();
$fontStyle->setBold(true);
$fontStyle->setName('Verdana');
$fontStyle->setSize(22);
$myTextElement = $section->addText('Hello World!');
$myTextElement->setFontStyle($fontStyle);

// Finally, write the document:
$objWriter = PHPWord_IOFactory::createWriter($PHPWord, 'Word2007');
$objWriter->save('helloWorld.docx');
```

<a name="measurement-units"></a>
##### Measurement units

The base length unit in Open Office XML is twip. Twip means "TWentieth of an Inch Point", i.e. 1 twip = 1/1440 inch.

You can use PHPWord helper functions to convert inches, centimeters, or points to twips.

```php
// Paragraph with 6 points space after
$PHPWord->addParagraphStyle('My Style', array(
    'spaceAfter' => PHPWord_Shared_Font::pointSizeToTwips(6))
);

$section = $PHPWord->createSection();
$sectionStyle = $section->getSettings();
// half inch left margin
$sectionStyle->setMarginLeft(PHPWord_Shared_Font::inchSizeToTwips(.5));
// 2 cm right margin
$sectionStyle->setMarginRight(PHPWord_Shared_Font::centimeterSizeToTwips(2));
```

<a name="sections"></a>
#### Sections

Every visible element in word is placed inside of a section. To create a section, use the following code:

```php
$section = $PHPWord->createSection($sectionSettings);
```
The `$sectionSettings` is an optional associative array that sets the section. Example:

```php
$sectionSettings = array(
    'orientation' => 'landscape',
    'marginTop' => 600,
    'colsNum' => 2,
);
```
<a name="section-settings"></a>
##### Section settings

Below are the available settings for section:

* `orientation` Page orientation, i.e. 'portrait' (default) or 'landscape'
* `marginTop` Page margin top in twips
* `marginLeft` Page margin left in twips
* `marginRight` Page margin right in twips
* `marginBottom` Page margin bottom in twips
* `borderTopSize` Border top size in twips
* `borderTopColor` Border top color
* `borderLeftSize` Border left size in twips
* `borderLeftColor` Border left color
* `borderRightSize` Border right size in twips
* `borderRightColor` Border right color
* `borderBottomSize` Border bottom size in twips
* `borderBottomColor` Border bottom color
* `headerHeight` Spacing to top of header
* `footerHeight` Spacing to bottom of footer
* `colsNum` Number of columns
* `colsSpace` Spacing between columns
* `breakType` Section break type (nextPage, nextColumn, continuous, evenPage, oddPage)

The following two settings are automatically set by the use of the `orientation` setting. You can alter them but that's not recommended.

* `pageSizeW` Page width in twips
* `pageSizeH` Page height in twips

<a name="section-page-numbering"></a>
##### Section page numbering

You can change a section page numbering.

```php
$section = $PHPWord->createSection();
$section->getSettings()->setPageNumberingStart(1);
```

<a name="texts"></a>
#### Texts

Text can be added by using `addText` and `createTextRun` method. `addText` is used for  creating simple paragraphs that only contain texts with the same style. `createTextRun` is used for creating complex paragraphs that contain text with different style (some bold, other italics, etc) or other elements, e.g. images or links.

`addText` sample:

```php
$fontStyle = array('name' => 'Times New Roman', 'size' => 9);
$paragraphStyle = array('align' => 'both');
$section->addText('I am simple paragraph', $fontStyle, $paragraphStyle);
```

`createTextRun` sample:

```php
$textrun = $section->createTextRun();
$textrun->addText('I am bold', array('bold' => true));
$textrun->addText('I am italic, array('italic' => true));
$textrun->addText('I am colored, array('color' => 'AACC00'));
```

        'marginTop' => -1,
        'marginLeft' => -1,
        'wrappingStyle' => 'behind'
