I have to process some older Word documents that contains CustomXmlBlocks.

Hi there,

Thanks for your inquiry.


We used to keep CustomXmlMarkup nodes marked as Obsolete, but now it is fully removed as per:
Custom XML markup is removed when you open a document in Word 2013

Starting from Microsoft Word 2013, Microsoft removed the Custom XML feature from Microsoft Word. Please check following public API changes page for your kind reference.
Public API Changes in Aspose.Words 15.8.0

Please let us know if you have any more queries.

I am asking this, because I can do this over DocumentFormat.OpenXml libraries

Thank you

Hi there,

Thanks for your inquiry. Please note that Aspose.Words mimics the same behavior as MS Word does.


Moreover, note that custom XML markup is removed when you open a document in Word 2013. So, we removed the CustomXmlMarkup from latest versions of Aspose.Words.

Please let us know if you have any more queries.
