## From README

DevExpress Word Processing Document API The Word Processing Document API is a non-visual .NET library for creating, loading, editing, and exporting Word processing documents programmatically — without requiring Microsoft Office. It supports .docx, .doc, .rtf, .odt, .txt, .html, .mht, and WordML formats and can export to PDF, HTML, and image series. The primary entry point is RichEditDocumentServer, a server-side class suitable for console apps, ASP.NET Core, Blazor, MAUI, and background services.
