In the configuration file, change the font to your desired font.

How to Install

docx-viewer's Issues

The renderer doesn't use editor font

If possible i would ask to introduce this feature of being able to set a font to be used by the renderer as ppl has different tastes of readable font.

Multiple Vulnerabilities Found in Dependencies

Hello Team.

I hope you are doing well. I am reaching out to inform you of a critical security matter. After cloning the repository, I have identified several vulnerabilities across multiple dependencies. These issues range in severity.

Key Vulnerabilities identified:

Arbitrary File Write via Archive Extraction (Zip Slip) [Critical Severity]: introduced by [email protected] > [email protected], this issue was fixed in version: 0.4.11

Upgrading these dependencies will not only resolve the current vulnerabilities but will also enhance the overall security posture of the project.

Feature/fix: Render plus compare differences within different checkouts

If you tried to compare within the integrated compare working tree vs any previous commit it doesn't render the old version file rather the same head file twice. Would be great if it could also highlight differences

key to refresh

i view docx in vsc, and simultanesly work with it in word, i want a key to refresh when i came back to vsc or, better, an option that when ihave focus in vsc it is reload

thanks

Question: setting default editor

Is it possible to set docx viewer as the default text opener/editor of docx documents in visual studio code? It is now only possible to view the file with the docx viewer by clicking with the left mouse button and then opening document in the docx viewer.

Feature: add odt (LibreOffice Writer) support

Since .docx is an extension from privative software, it would be neat to have .odt support into the extension, since its popular to install that software into schools/academia linux-based machines. I could help integrating it

Error when trying to open docx made in non-english version of word

I tried opening a file with Norwegian names for paragraph styles and got this error. I'm not sure if the title is accurate, as I don't know the specifics of how docx files work.

Synchronous scrolling for compared documents

Hello! Thanks for the great extension Docx Viewer/Reader! I want to ask for one improvement. Can you make synchronous scrolling for compared documents (invoked from context menu "Select to compare" / "Compare with selected")? Best regards, Albert.

Change styling (CSS)?

I find the preview hard to read the way it is styled.
Is there a way to change that, e.g. by setting some CSS somewhere?
