HtmlToWord Description

HtmlToWord was created for use in an application that uses Word to generate reports based on HTML input from a web frontend. You can use it like so:import HtmlToWord, win32com.clientword = win32com.client.gencache.EnsureDispatch("Word.Application")word.Visible = True # Don't set this to True in production!document = word.Documents.Add()parser = HtmlToWord.Parser()Html = """< h3 >This is a title< /h3 >< p >< img src="http://placehold.it/150x150" alt="I go below the image as a caption" >< /p >< p >< i >This is < b >some< /b > text< /i > in a < a href="http://google.com" >paragraph< /a >< /p >< ul > < li >Boo! I am a < b >list< /b >< /li >< /ul >"""parser.ParseAndRender(Html, word, document.ActiveWindow.Selection)Or if you don't want to use HTML you can create a tree of tags yourself (List elements omitted):from HtmlToWord.elements import *parser.Render(word, ), Paragraph(), Paragraph(), Text(" text")]), Text(" in a "), HyperLink(, {"href":"http://google.com"}), ])], document.ActiveWindow.Selection)Supported tags and extentionsHtmlToWord currently supports the following HTML tags:- p- b / strong- br- div- em / i- u- ul- ol- li- table- tbody- tr- td- img- a- h1/2/3/4ExtendingExtending HtmlToWord is pretty easy. Each tag is a class that inherits from BaseElement. It has two methods that are called: StartRender and EndRender. Take a look in elements/headings.py and elements/text.py for some simple examples.RationaleWhy Word? Why not ODF or OpenOffice?Time. Words Object Model is very well documented with lots of samples available on the internet - any .NET code in VB or C# can be translated pretty easily. On top of this you can record Macro's within Word that generates Visual Basic code while you play with a document, meaning its very quick to find out how to do things. ODF looks cool, but again i'm not getting any younger and word's COM interface ticked all the boxes. In the future I might expand this module to generate ODF XML, but for now its a pipe dream.Product's homepage
