Best Selling Vehicles Awards

Overview

This example demonstrates how to generate a professional award document that includes:

• A structured main table for organizing content
• A nested table for displaying detailed information
• Dynamic data integration using JSON

Step-by-Step Guide

Follow these steps to create your award document template with Carbone:

1. Design the Main Layout

Start by creating the main structure in Microsoft Word:

• Open Microsoft Word
• Insert a table for the main content
• Configure the table properties:
  • Go to Table Properties
  • Under the Table tab, set Text Wrapping to None
  • In the Row tab, uncheck Allow row to break across pages for better layout control

2. Add Dynamic Data

Use Carbone tags to display your data:

• Use {d.manufacturers[i].name} to display items from your data array
• Add {d.manufacturers[i+1]} in the next row to create a loop
• Set up the header row:
  • Select the first row of your table
  • Right-click and choose Table Properties
  • Go to the Row tab
  • Check Repeat as header row at the top of each page

3. Implement Nested Tables

Add nested tables to show hierarchical information:

• Insert a table inside a table cell
• Use {d.manufacturers[i].models[i].name} to display nested data
• Add {d.manufacturers[i].models[i+1]} to loop through nested items
• Use Table Design to remove borders from the nested table for a clean look
