$outputFullPath = $tmpDir . $fileName;
        
$phpWord = new Word();

// create a file using a template
$phpWord->saveFromMultiLineTemplate($templateFullPath, $outputFullPath, [
    'variableName' => 'variableValue',
    'tableName' => [
        ['itemName' => 'itemValue1'],
        ['itemName' => 'itemValue2'],
        ['itemName' => 'itemValue3'],
    ],
]);

// download file
$phpWord->downloadTemplate($outputFullPath);
