2.0
New
You can now view the changelog directly inside Excel.
Fixed
"Type mismatch" error when a cell in the export table contains an Excel error value (e.g. #N/A or #REF!). Such cells are now treated as empty and skipped.
Fixed
"Incompatible file type and file extension" error when using an older .doc or macro-enabled .docm file as the Word template. Documents are now always saved as regular .docx files.
Fixed
Content could be inserted at the wrong bookmark when a column header did not match any bookmark in the Word document.
Fixed
The originally selected cell is now restored after exporting Excel ranges as images.
Improvement
Word prompts and dialogs are suppressed during export, so exports no longer hang in the background.
Improvement
More reliable error reporting. Error details are no longer lost in rare cases.
1.9
New
Added support for per-row Word template selection. Add an optional "WordPath" column to your export table to use different Word templates for different rows. Leave cells empty to use the default template.
1.8
New
Added a Settings menu with configurable table sizing (Fixed Width, Fit to Content, or Full Page Width) and an optional alternative paste method for better table formatting (Windows only).
Fixed
"Waiting for OLE action" dialog no longer appears when exporting large tables.

"The directory name isn't valid" error when exporting to long file paths or paths with invalid characters.
New
Output names are now validated before exporting, with clear warnings instead of unexpected errors.
1.6
New
You can now filter Excel tables when exporting to Word. Use the pipe syntax to specify which column and value to filter on, so each document only includes the rows relevant to that export row.
1.5
Fixed
Button to select output folder not working on certain macOS and Office version combinations.
Fixed
Error when saving Word and PDF files on some Mac configurations.
1.4
New
Text replacements are no longer limited to 255 characters. Longer text can now be inserted without any trouble.
1.3
New
Now only visible rows are exported. If you use Excel’s autofilter to show certain rows, only those rows will be sent to Word. Hidden rows will not be exported. Before, all rows were exported, even if they were hidden.

New
Added support for replacing placeholders in headers, footers, textboxes, and multi-section documents with unlinked headers and footers.
Improved
Hyperlinks from Excel are now preserved when inserted into Word.
