This is a comprehensive Word Editing and Manipulation Library for Python. Use our Word editing API to develop cross-platform software in Python.
Programmatic modification of Word documents is an integral part of modern digital workflow. Edit text in Word, insert graphs using external data, modify tables.
Python library is a stand-alone solution to edit Word that doesn't rely on other software. It's ready for commercial use covers all possible needs of professional Python developers:
Python Word programmatic editor provides developers with a modern API to edit Word programmatically. Quickly integrate Word modification features into your software. Our library supports the modification of a variety of document formats in Python.
The task of editing Word programmatically in Python is the task of modifying elements in the Word document tree. It is also known as the 'DOM' - the programming model for interacting with Word document elements and their properties.
Word modification features are inseparable from the advanced Word search functionality. For a hig level of flexibility, our Python library provides developers with Word Regex-based search functionality. This approach expands the possibilities to edit text in Word files, allowing the use of templates for dynamic Word transformation.
One of the most requested features is the dynamic creation and modification of tables in Word documents. Working with tables is very convenient with Python library: edit tables, update tables and extract table text using Python.
The following example demostrates how to modify a Word document in Python:
pip install aspose-words
Copy
import aspose.words as aw
doc = aw.Document("Input.docx")
builder = aw.DocumentBuilder(doc)
# Insert text at the beginning of the document.
builder.move_to_document_start()
builder.writeln("Morbi enim nunc faucibus a.")
doc.save("Output.docx")
import aspose.words as aw
doc = aw.Document("Input.docx")
builder = aw.DocumentBuilder(doc)
# Insert table at the beginning of the document.
builder.move_to_document_start()
builder.start_table()
builder.insert_cell()
builder.write("Row 1, cell 1.")
builder.insert_cell()
builder.write("Row 1, cell 2.")
builder.end_table()
doc.save("Output.docx")
import aspose.words as aw
doc = aw.Document("Input.docx")
builder = aw.DocumentBuilder(doc)
# Insert image at the beginning of the document.
builder.move_to_document_start()
builder.insert_image("Image.png")
doc.save("Output.docx")
We host our Python packages in PyPi repositories. Please follow the step-by-step instructions on how to install "Aspose.Words for Python via .NET" to your developer environment.
This package is compatible with Python ≥3.5 and <3.12. If you develop software for Linux, please have a look at additional requirements for gcc and libpython in Product Documentation.
