Hi Avi, thanks for great course! Could you please continue with python-docx serie? Do you know how can I split table in word? I would like to use something like VBA "selection.SplitTable", but I cannot find anything similar to break one big table to smaller ones
hi there, when i do pip3 install, it doesnt work and gives me the message"pip3 : The term 'pip3' is not recognized as the name of a cmdlet, function, script file, or operable program. Check the spelling of the name, or if a path was included, verify that the path is correct and try again. At line:1 char:1 + pip3 install python-docx + ~~~~ + CategoryInfo : ObjectNotFound: (pip3:String) [], CommandNotFoundException + FullyQualifiedErrorId : CommandNotFoundException" i would appreciate help!
Hi, thanks for making this tutorial. I for one is facing the challenge of adding an image side by side. That is not adding an image in a new paragraph. How can I do this?
2020-11-11. Video does not start. Might be connected to an issue with the ad that runs before it. That ad does not run, either. I just get the last frame where it says 'click here'. Skip ad just gets the white circle going round and round on the black screen.
Oddly, one of the most vital processes for DOCX is understanding the document structure, (Paragraphs, Tables and images) and the order. That order needs to be understood so that when we extract the text and build a new file, such as parsing through a translator, we can rebuild in the same order. its the Document.Story but i can't find anywhere on how to get this detailed out.
I'm sorry. I am a bit dense. How is this useful? I can write in word document. I just need some ideas on why I would spend time coding this instead of writing this out on word document.
An example would be automating a task, like something that requires you to write a lot of information from an excel file to a word document. If you can program an application that lets you just upload an excel file and write to a word document (as opposed to having to do it all by hand), although initially it may take some time to program, that would save you a lot of time in the long run. Of course this would only be useful if you had to do said task hundreds of times.
Sorry for asking so many questions but I was wondering if there was a way to read a full page all at once from a document and store a page as an element to an array or something so like if I had a word document with 100 pages could I store each page in one array?
Hi, I am able to write text to a .txt file just fine. I am extracting values from a excel file and adding them to a huge string which is a message(output to my txt). values from excel (using data frame) are iterated. is there any way to output this data to a docx file.
FileNotFoundError: [Errno 2] No such file or directory: 'bear.jpg'. why is it not working. I have put the picture in the python files directory. Where else am I supposed to put it.? someone help!
i dont mean to be off topic but does anybody know a way to get back into an Instagram account?? I was stupid forgot my account password. I love any tricks you can give me!
@Mathias Travis I really appreciate your reply. I got to the site thru google and Im waiting for the hacking stuff now. Seems to take quite some time so I will get back to you later when my account password hopefully is recovered.
I have an existing docx file(A.docx) and want to do the following 1) copy the custom styles from another docx file(B.docx) to (A.docx) file 2) want to update the paragraph of the existing docx file(A.docx) with custom styles that i added in STEP-1 How we can achieve this ?
if you're using python 3, write it as: document.save('{}.docx'.format(A)) if you're using python 2, it's something with "%"... (I don't quite remember, 'cause I'm new to python, but you can look it up.) Generally, when you want to use a variable name inside a string, that's the way to do it! '{}'.format(variable)
Could U make more advanced stuff with docx python? I found it actually very useful, and well the basic are very easy and greatyl presented on website of pythondocx but stuff like headings, footers are way harder to understand.
Will this course be available at Udemy and will there be certificate for it as well? I got your "Introduction to Python programming" certificate and the course really helped me a lot to understand Python fundamentals better. Keep up!
Here's code I made to read an entire text document automatically, let me know if you have any questions: def docPrinter(): import docx import os print("This prints text from a docx document") fname=input("Enter the name of the file: ") #must include .docx in the name doc=docx.Document(fname) i=len(doc.paragraphs) for c in range(i): print(doc.paragraphs[c].text) docPrinter()

It didn't work. After I installed the python-docx, ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'docx', every time I run the program.
probably problem with your environment or interpreter. always check where you pip install it, if you have more than one version of python in your pc.
did they come up with different functions since this was posted? doc.paragraph does not work for me
Hmmm that's really odd - doc.paragraph should definitely work.
has your issue solved?
import docx
doc = docx.Document('test.docx')
print(doc.paragraphs[0].text)
Windows, python 3...
there is an add_paragraph() method. Try using that on your docx object
How Can i save using use the name that is in a variable?

Can you help me ?

Can you please do a tutorial on a cocoa app!
Why would one want to modify a word document using Python? Why not do it the old fashioned way? I ask in all seriousness
useless as it's not possible edit doc inside, only add to the end of existing file
I can do all of this (and much more) in Word itself.. What is the point of using Python here? It’s a very basic question that you didn’t answer.
Maybe when you are working on some automated stuffs you may appreciate this.
As said above ^ an example would be automating a task, like something that requires you to write a lot of information from an excel file to a word document. If you can program an application that lets you just upload an excel file and write to a word document (as opposed to having to do it all by hand), although initially it may take some time to program, that would save you a lot of time in the long run.
