Project description
python-docx-ng
python-docx-ng is a Python library for creating and updating Microsoft Word (.docx) files. It was originally designed and developed by scanny as python-docx. As he is not actively developing his repo and there are soo many useful pull requests, bringing together a more powerful tool. This repo should merge a lot of those things and create a more powerful version, hopefully bearing the original structure of scanny in mind.
A new documentation section will be build up soon based on Markdown in the docs section. Examples can be found here: examples Older information is available in the python-docx Documentation.
