Overview
TX Text Control .NET for WPF puts a word processor into the windows of your WPF application: users edit documents in a TextControl surrounded by ribbon tabs, bars and sidebars, while your code creates, merges and converts documents with ServerTextControl and MailMerge. The Overview explains the product before you install anything, for .NET developers who are evaluating it or starting their first project with it.
After these pages, you know which controls a window needs and how they connect in XAML, which classes do the work in code, and which .NET and Windows versions, file formats, editions and licenses apply to your application.

Where to Start
- Read the Introduction for the product at a glance.
- Continue with Product Architecture, which introduces the terms the rest of the documentation uses, such as connecting a bar to the editor by its name.
- Before you buy, compare the editions in Editions and Feature Availability: the features you plan to use have to be part of the edition you license.
Then set up your project:
- Installation Guide: the requirements, the setup, the NuGet package, the toolbox, the XAML namespaces and the license.
- Getting Started: tutorials that take you from an empty WPF project to a working editor.
