Major Changes

Add OOXML compliance controls for Word documents

Introduces full OOXML compliance handling for Word documents, letting you explicitly set the compliance level and automatically preserve original compliance where appropriate. This provides predictable output across Ecma, Transitional, and Strict modes and keeps documents aligned with their intended standards.

Process template expressions inside inline content controls

Fixes template expression processing inside inline content controls (SdtRun), ensuring expressions render correctly no matter where they appear in the document. This improves reliability for complex templates that mix block, inline, and plain text placeholders.

Improve barcode generation reliability across platforms

Enhances barcode rendering by enforcing minimum dimensions for Codabar symbols, avoiding transparent colors, and resolving blank barcode output on Linux (.NET 8). These updates deliver consistent, platform-stable barcode generation for assembled documents.
