python-docx Description
The library python-docx is designed for manipulating Microsoft Word (.docx) files using Python. In Word documents, paragraphs play a crucial role, serving not only as body text but also for headings and list items like bullets. Users can define both width and height for elements, although it is generally advisable to avoid doing so. When a single dimension is specified, python-docx automatically calculates the other dimension to maintain the aspect ratio, ensuring that images retain their intended appearance without distortion. If you are unfamiliar with Word paragraph styles, it’s worth exploring, as these styles allow you to apply a comprehensive set of formatting options to a paragraph in one go. The library enables users to create new documents or modify existing ones, and while it primarily focuses on making alterations to current documents, starting with an empty file may give the impression of building a document from the ground up. By utilizing this library, users can streamline their workflow in creating and editing Word documents effectively.
