Paper-sized WYSIWYG document editor for Vue apps
npm install vue-document-editor

vue-document-editor is a rich-text editor built on top of Vue.js, using the native contenteditable browser implementation and some JavaScript trickery to spread content over paper-sized pages. It is mainly designed to allow targeted modifications to pre-formatted documents using HTML or interactive templates.
###### :speech_balloon: This package does not intend to replace a proper document editor with full functionality. If you're looking for a powerful word processor, check out CKEditor for Vue.js or Collabora Online Development Edition.
###### :speech_balloon: This package doesn't include any toolbar. The demo features vue-file-toolbar-menu for the toolbar.
```
npm install vue-document-editor
##### In your Vue.js 2.x project:
``
npm install vue-document-editor@1

- Undo / Redo: Native undo/redo needs to be rewritten as the split mechanism modifies the HTML content at every input, so the navigator is lost. You have to implement it yourself by watching content updates and storing them in a stack, then restoring them. Demo.vue implements this. Also your interactive templates need to have a custom undo/redo management if their editable fields are not synced with the content.
- Performance: For now, large texts must be divided into multiple paragraphs and large page numbers can slow down the entire document (see Issue 14).
- Safari print: Safari adds print margins unless you choose a borderless paper format in the print box. This has to be done manually. I guess there is no workaround for this issue yet.
- Tables, images: Image/table placement and sizing is not included. You can implement it specifically for your needs. However, table rows split fine over multiple pages.
- Page splitting doesn't work with Vue page templates: This library cannot act on the content managed by Vue (like .vue page templates), because then Vue is lost and the template pages are no longer interactive. The only choice you have is writing plain HTML in the content instead of using .vue templates. You can do interactivity by using HTML elements with the attributes contenteditable="false" and onclick="..." containing your own JavaScript code.Project development
