Scroll Word Exporter 5.8.1
November 2022
We are pleased to announce the release of Scroll Word Exporter 5.8.1 which is an improvement and bug fix release.
This update introduces two new highly requested features for configuring the MS Word Document Properties and being able to have greater control over caption prefixes. This release also contains preparatory changes for supporting the upcoming major version of Confluence 8.
Please note we have now dropped compatibility with Confluence 6. We're following a similar end of life policy as Atlassian. This means that when we release a new add-on version, that version will support all versions of Confluence that have been released within the last two years. You can find further details until when specific versions are supported in the Atlassian end of life policy.
Confluence Version Compatibility
This version is no longer compatible with Confluence 6.x.
Highlights
Customise Figure and Table Captions
Within the template editor's Export Properties, it is now possible to configure the structure of the captions for figures and tables. Through the use of the available placeholders for caption title, numbering and internationalized prefix, alongside the addition of static text, users can define how captions are now printed in generated Word documents - check out our documentation to learn more.
Define Document Properties
Also found within the Export Properties, users can now define Word Document Properties for their generated exports - learn more here.
Document Properties that have already been defined in the Word file template (outside of our app) will only be replaced if the corresponding template property is set to a value within the app's newly provided Document Properties feature. Additionally, please note that MS Word automatically sets the author field when creating a Word file template but this property can be overwritten when setting a value within the Author field from the new Document Properties options in the Export Properties.
