The issue for me was that DocumentFormat OpenXml dll existed in the Global Assembly Cache  GAC  on my Win7 development box  So when publishing my project in VS2013  it found the file in the GAC and therefore omitted it from being copied to the publish folder   Solution  remove the DLL from the GAC    Open the GAC root in Windows Explorer  Win7   windir  Microsoft NET assembly  Search for OpenXml Delete any appropriate folders  or to be safe  cut them out to your desktop in case you should want to restore them    There may be a more proper way to remove a GAC file  below   but that is what I did and it worked  gacutil    u DocumentFormat OpenXml dll  Hope that helps

You need to have DocumentFormat OpenXML dll in the same folder as your application - or in the  bin  path if you are developing an ASP NET application   However  I m not certain that the OpenXML SDK is supported on non-Windows operating systems - you may need to look into a third-party solution   Yes  this answer is right  the only difference is that you copy your  dll into bin folder of the project

What worked for me    Add a folder to the project call it ThirdParty  Add in the ThirdParty folder both DocumentFormat OpenXML dll and  WindowsBase dll Make sure the the project uses the ThirdParty dir as reference for both the DLLs  Build and published to an external server

Well  In my applications I just need to Add a reference to  DocumentFormat OpenXml  under  Net tab and both references  DocumentFormat OpenXml and WindowsBase  are always added automatically  But They are not included within the Bin folder  So when the Application is published to an external server I always place DocumentFormat OpenXml dll under the Bin folder manually  Or set the reference  Copy Local  property to true

Being new to this myself  here s what I did   I m using MS Visual Studio 2010 Pro    Download and install the OpenXML SDK Within my project in Visual Studio  select  Project  then  Add Reference  Select the  Browse  tab In the  Look in   pull down  navigate to  C  Program Files x86  Open XML SDK V2 0 lib  and select the  DocumentFormat OpenXml dll Hit OK In the  Solution Explorer   on the right for me   the  References  folder now shows the DocumentFormat OpenXML library  Right-click on it and select Properties In the Properties panel  change  Copy Local  to  True     You should be off and running now using the DocumentFormat classes

I found that when mixed with PCL libraries the above problem presented itself  and whilst it is true that the WindowsBase library contains System IO Packaging I was using the OpenXMLSDK-MOT 2 6 0 0 library which itself provides it s own copy of the physical System IO Packaging library  The reference that was missing for me could be found as follows in the csharp project   lt Reference Include  System IO Packaging  Version 1 0 0 0  Culture neutral  processorArchitecture MSIL  gt     lt HintPath gt             packages OpenXMLSDK-MOT 2 6 0 0 lib System IO Packaging dll lt  HintPath gt     lt Private gt True lt  Private gt   lt  Reference gt    I downgraded my version of the XMLSDK to 2 6 which then seemed to fix this problem up for me  But you can see there is a physical assembly System IO Packaging dll

select DocumentFormat OpenXml under references   view it s properties  and set the Copy Local option to True so that it copies it to the output folder  That worked for me

You should also ensure you set a reference to WindowsBase  This is required to use the SDK as it handles System IO Packaging  which is used for unzipping and opening the compressed  docx  xlsx  pptx as an OPC document
