How to create doc or rtf file in Lua language?

Question

Lua

I am making a form in cronos, there is a button on the form that unloads data from the data bank and saves it to a table in a doc or rtf file.
Tell me how easy it is to create a file with a doc or rtf extension using lua. Through com connection?

Answer 1

You need to study the structure of .doc/.rtf files and write a builder for this structure. You can look towards learning a library for serializing binary data in lua.
.doc see lua-users.org/wiki/LuaCom
