Day 28 - Play with MS-Word using Python Script

You can use this script to read the content of MS-word + Add a new paragraph in the doc + Add a new image in the doc

import pandas as pd

doc = docx.Document("C:\\Users\\Rakesh.Ranjan\\Desktop\\LND\\MS-DOC.docx")

#reading 1st paragraph
single_para = doc.paragraphs[0]
print(single_para.text)

line_number = 0

#Reading all Paragraphs
all_paras = doc.paragraphs
print(len(all_paras))

#creating an empty dataframe
column_names = ["line_number","line_text"]

#reading each paragraph and storing it in the dataframe
for para in all_paras:
    doc_df = doc_df.append({"line_number":line_number, "line_text":para.text},ignore_index=True)
    line_number = line_number + 1


#add paragraph in the document
doc.add_paragraph("This is last paragraph of a MS Word file.")
doc.save("C:\\Users\\Rakesh.Ranjan\\Desktop\\LND\\MS-DOC.docx")

#add image in the document
