As already described in previous articles, there are operations with documents that are faster and more conveniently to perform using Aspose.Words than Open XML SDK. But there are also operations that are not provided by OpenXML. You can try to achieve the desired result using auxiliary tools and options, but even if successful, it will be quite expensive.
The following table contains some of the popular features supported by Aspose.Words and missed in Open XML SDK:
| Aspose.Words feature | Corresponding documentation article or section |
|---|---|
| Convert between different document formats. For example, Word to PDF, HTML to Markdown, DOCX to JPG, PDF to Word, Image to PDF, and others | The Convert a Document section |
| Mail Merge | The Mail Merge and Reporting section |
| Rendering | The Rendering in Aspose.Words section |
| Print a document | The Printing a Document Programmatically or Using Dialogs article |
| Join multiple documents, including combine formatting of documents when importing content | The Insert and Append Documents article |
| Find and Replace | The Find and Replace article |
| Updating fields | The Working with Fields section |
| Manage a Table of Content (TOC) | The Working with Table of Contents article |
| Manipulate form fields | The Working with Form Fields article |
| Manipulate tables | The Working with Tables section |
