Create a MS Word doc based on a template, changing specific parts of it using user provided values

Question

I need to dynamically generate contracts, and for that our HR depart already has some specific templates which only need a few changes (like names, address, phone number, etc).

For that reason, I'm looking for a library that will help me with the following:

1. Read a word file (used as a template)

2. Identify specially marked pieces of text, and replace them.

Do you know of any library(preferably free) that will help achieve that?

P.S. The .Net Framework I'm using is 4.6.1

Answer 1

I'd use the WordprocessingDocument Class.
