C# OpenXML How to Replace \r\n with Break()?

I have a text field in my database and it has a text with many lines.
When generating a MS Word document using OpenXML and bookmarks, the text become one single line.
I've noticed that in each new line the bookmark value show the characters "\r\n".
Looking for a solution, I've found some answers which helped me, but I'm still having a problem.
I've used the run.Append(new Break()); solution, but the text replaced is showing the name of the bookmark as well.
For example:
bookmark test = "Big text here in first paragraph\r\nSecond paragraph".
It is shown in MS Word document like:
testBig text here in first paragraph
Second paragraph
Can anyone, please, help me to eliminate the bookmark name?
Here is my code:
public void UpdateBookmarksVistoria(string originalPath, string copyPath, string fileType)
{
string wordmlNamespace = "http://schemas.openxmlformats.org/wordprocessingml/2006/main";
// Make a copy of the template file.
File.Copy(originalPath, copyPath, true);
//Open the document as an Open XML package and extract the main document part.
using (WordprocessingDocument wordPackage = WordprocessingDocument.Open(copyPath, true))
{
MainDocumentPart part = wordPackage.MainDocumentPart;
//Setup the namespace manager so you can perform XPath queries
//to search for bookmarks in the part.
NameTable nt = new NameTable();
XmlNamespaceManager nsManager = new XmlNamespaceManager(nt);
nsManager.AddNamespace("w", wordmlNamespace);
//Load the part's XML into an XmlDocument instance.
XmlDocument xmlDoc = new XmlDocument(nt);
xmlDoc.Load(part.GetStream());
//pega a url para exibir as fotos
string url = HttpContext.Current.Request.Url.ToString();
string enderecoURL;
if (url.Contains("localhost"))
enderecoURL = url.Substring(0, 26);
else if (url.Contains("www."))
enderecoURL = url.Substring(0, 24);
else
enderecoURL = url.Substring(0, 20);
//Iterate through the bookmarks.
int cont = 56;
foreach (KeyValuePair<string, string> bookmark in bookmarks)
{
var res = from bm in part.Document.Body.Descendants<BookmarkStart>()
where bm.Name == bookmark.Key
select bm;
var bk = res.SingleOrDefault();
if (bk != null)
{
Run bookmarkText = bk.NextSibling<Run>();
if (bookmarkText != null) // if the bookmark has text replace it
{
var texts = bookmark.Value.Split(new[] { Environment.NewLine }, StringSplitOptions.None);
for (int i = 0; i < texts.Length; i++)
{
if (i > 0)
bookmarkText.Append(new Break());
Text text = new Text();
text.Text = texts[i];
bookmarkText.Append(text); //HERE IS MY PROBLEM
}
}
else // otherwise append new text immediately after it
{
var parent = bk.Parent; // bookmark's parent element
Text text = new Text(bookmark.Value);
Run run = new Run(new RunProperties());
run.Append(text);
// insert after bookmark parent
parent.Append(run);
}
bk.Remove(); // we don't want the bookmark anymore
}
}
//Write the changes back to the document part.
xmlDoc.Save(wordPackage.MainDocumentPart.GetStream(FileMode.Create));
wordPackage.Close();
}}

The name SpaceProcessingModeValues does not exist in this context

In my ASP.net program i have a class to open a word document, find a boormark and insert a given text
The error i get is: the name SpaceProcessingModeValues does not exist in the current context.
using (WordprocessingDocument document = WordprocessingDocument.Open(strFileName, true))
{
MainDocumentPart mainPart = document.MainDocumentPart;
IEnumerable<BookmarkStart> res = from bm in mainPart.Document.Body.Descendants<BookmarkStart>()
where bm.Name == "strField"
select bm;
int x = 0;
BookmarkStart bookmark = res.SingleOrDefault();
if (bookmark != null)
{
OpenXmlElement parent = bookmark.Parent; // bookmark's parent element
var paragraph1 = new Paragraph {RsidParagraphAddition = "00023529", RsidRunAdditionDefault = "003E1BA6"};
var run1 = new Run();
var text1 = new Text("Text : "){ Space = SpaceProcessingModeValues.Preserve };
run1.Append(text1);
var bookmarkStart1 = new BookmarkStart {Name = "_GoBack", Id = 0};
var bookmarkEnd1 = new BookmarkEnd {Id = 0};
var run2 = new Run();
var text2 = new Text();
text2.Text = strGivenText;
run2.Append(text2);
paragraph1.Append(run1);
paragraph1.Append(bookmarkStart1);
paragraph1.Append(bookmarkEnd1);
paragraph1.Append(run2);
parent.InsertBeforeSelf(paragraph1);
}
// close saves all parts and closes the document
mainPart.Document.Save();
document.Close();
}

You need to add the references DocumentFormat.OpenXml namespace

Openxml C# while adding a new pragraph

First I have created a paragraph in openxml
Paragraph paragraph1 = new Paragraph();
try
{
ParagraphProperties paragraphProperties1 = new ParagraphProperties();
ParagraphStyleId paragraphStyleId1 = new ParagraphStyleId() {
Val = "Correspondence" };
paragraphProperties1.AppendChild(paragraphStyleId1);
Run run1 = new Run();
Text text1 = new Text();
text1.Text = array[1];
run1.AppendChild(text1);
paragraph1.AppendChild(paragraphProperties1);
paragraph1.AppendChild(run1);
}
catch { }
After that i traverse my document paragraph by paragraph and add paragraph that i have described above.
var ps = wordDoc1.MainDocumentPart.Document.Descendants<Paragraph>();
bool addBool;
addBool = false;
foreach (Paragraph pg in ps)
{
if (addBool == true)
{
//pg.Append(paragraph1);
//wordDoc1.MainDocumentPart.Document.Save();
break;
}
if (pg.InnerXml.Contains(#"w:val=""Author""") == true)
{
addBool = true;
pg.Append(paragraph1);
//pg.InnerXml = pg.InnerXml + array[0];
wordDoc1.MainDocumentPart.Document.Save();
break;
}
}
So, It will just append the paragraph into the select paragraph.
My Question:
How can i insert a new paragraph just below the selected paragraph?
Note** And it should not merge into the paragraph but is should create a new paragraph

You can use pg.InsertAfter method to insert new paragraph. Doing so will automatically add paragraph breaks before and after the paragraph.

WPF print strings as lines

In my app I have to print some data to a printer. This data is stored in a collection, each record in the collection has a string field and that is what is to be printed. Each of these string fields should be one line. I figured to do something like this
FlowDocument doc = new FlowDocument();
foreach (var x in myCollection)
{
Paragraph p = new Paragraph(new Run(x.PrintString));
doc.Blocks.Add(p);
}
doc.Name = "FlowDoc";
IDocumentPaginatorSource idpSource = doc;
printDlg.PrintDocument(idpSource.DocumentPaginator, "My Printing");
The problem is that there is an empty space after every line, something like this;
Line 1
Line 2
Line 3
When I need it to look like this;
Line 1
Line 2
Line 3
Thanks
edit: Add the definition of doc
Based on the comments I was able to it to work with the following
FlowDocument doc = new FlowDocument();
Paragraph p = new Paragraph();
foreach (var x in myCollection)
{
p.Inlines.Add(x.PrintString + "\r\n");
p.Margin = new Thickness(0);
}
doc.Blocks.Add(p);
doc.Name = "FlowDoc";
IDocumentPaginatorSource idpSource = doc;
printDlg.PrintDocument(idpSource.DocumentPaginator, "My Printing");

Open XML Word C# - Split into Two Columns

I was wondering how would it be possible to split the word document into two columns. The reason why I want to do this is because I want to be able to fit all of the information on one page.
Thank you so much for your help and time!
My Code
using (WordprocessingDocument wordDoc = WordprocessingDocument.Create(filepath, WordprocessingDocumentType.Document))
{
MainDocumentPart mainPart = wordDoc.AddMainDocumentPart();
mainPart.Document = new Document();
var margin_size = 100;
PageMargin pargeMargins = new PageMargin();
pargeMargins.Top = margin_size;
pargeMargins.Bottom = margin_size;
SectionProperties sectionProps = new SectionProperties();
sectionProps.Append(pargeMargins);
Body body = mainPart.Document.AppendChild(new Body());
body.Append(sectionProps);
ParagraphProperties paragraphProperties = new ParagraphProperties
(
//new ParagraphStyleId() { Val = "No Spacing" },
new SpacingBetweenLines() { After = "0" }
);
Paragraph para_main = body.AppendChild(new Paragraph(paragraphProperties));
// Creating the Header where the Serial Number will exist

Currently the code prints out everything top-down on one column. And I want it with two columns

You can two or how many columns you want using the Columns Class for the SectionProperties and ParagraphProperties Class
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/documentformat.openxml.wordprocessing.columns(v=office.14).aspx
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/documentformat.openxml.wordprocessing.paragraphproperties(v=office.14).aspx
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/documentformat.openxml.wordprocessing.sectionproperties(v=office.14).aspx
This should do it:
// Add a new main document part.
package.AddMainDocumentPart();
// Create the Document DOM.
package.MainDocumentPart.Document = new Document();
Body bd = package.MainDocumentPart.Document.Body = new Body();
//write a first paragraph on two columns
var paragrap1 = new Paragraph();
var paragraphSectionProperties = new ParagraphProperties(new SectionProperties());
var paragraphColumns = new Columns();
paragraphColumns.EqualWidth = true;
paragraphColumns.ColumnCount = 2;
paragraphSectionProperties.Append(paragraphColumns);
paragrap1.Append(paragraphSectionProperties);
paragrap1.Append(new Run(new Text(str)));
bd.AppendChild(paragrap1);
//write another paragraph without paragraph properties
bd.Append(new Paragraph(new Run(new Text(str))));
//set the body properties default three columns
var sectionProperties = new SectionProperties();
var columns = new Columns();
columns.EqualWidth = true;
columns.ColumnCount = 3;
sectionProperties.Append(columns);
bd.Append(sectionProperties);
package.MainDocumentPart.Document.Save();

You can do it for the complete document with this code:
var sectionProperty = document.Body.Descendants<SectionProperties>().First();
var paragraphColumns = new Columns {EqualWidth = true, ColumnCount = 2};
sectionProperty.Append(paragraphColumns);

Try with..
Word.Application WordApp = new Word.Application();
Word.Document BaseDoc = default(Word.Document);
Word.Document DestDoc = default(Word.Document);
int intNumberOfPages = 0;
string intNumberOfChars = null;
int intPage = 0;
//Word Constants
const var wdGoToPage = 1;
const var wdStory = 6;
const var wdExtend = 1;
const var wdCharacter = 1;
//Show WordApp
WordApp.ShowMe();
//Load Base Document
BaseDoc = WordApp.Documents.Open(Filename);
BaseDoc.Repaginate();
//Loop through pages
intNumberOfPages = BaseDoc.BuiltInDocumentProperties("Number of Pages").value;
intNumberOfChars = BaseDoc.BuiltInDocumentProperties("Number of Characters").value;
for (intPage = 1; intPage <= intNumberOfPages; intPage++) {
if (intPage == intNumberOfPages) {
WordApp.Selection.EndKey(wdStory); }
else {
WordApp.Selection.GoTo(wdGoToPage, 2);
Application.DoEvents();
WordApp.Selection.MoveLeft(Unit = wdCharacter, Count = 1);
}
Application.DoEvents();
WordApp.Selection.HomeKey(wdStory, wdExtend);
Application.DoEvents();
WordApp.Selection.Copy();
Application.DoEvents();
//Create New Document
DestDoc = WordApp.Documents.Add;
DestDoc.Activate();
WordApp.Selection.Paste();
DestDoc.SaveAs(NewFileName + intPage.ToString + ".doc");
DestDoc.Close();
DestDoc = null;
WordApp.Selection.GoTo(wdGoToPage, 2);
Application.DoEvents();
WordApp.Selection.HomeKey(wdStory, wdExtend);
Application.DoEvents();
WordApp.Selection.Delete();
Application.DoEvents();
}
BaseDoc.Close(false);
BaseDoc = null;
WordApp.Quit();
WordApp = null;
