Answer 1

You can make a curl request on a php file who create, save the word and return the path, then use js to make a auto-click on a hidden link who you have set the "href=" with the path and have the attribute "download=your_file_name".

Create a tmp folder the same directory youhave the code and add this
objWriter = \PhpOffice\PhpWord\IOFactory::createWriter($phpWord, 'Word2007');
$objWriter->save('tmp/helloWorld.docx');
$file = 'tmp/helloWorld.docx';
if (file_exists($file)) {`enter code here`
header('Content-Description: File Transfer');
header('Content-Type: application/octet-stream');
header('Content-Disposition: attachment; filename="'.basename($file).'"');
header('Expires: 0');
header('Cache-Control: must-revalidate');
header('Pragma: public');
header('Content-Length: ' . filesize($file));
