What problem does it solve?

Replace embedded figures in DOCX reports while preserving placement, sizing, and nearby captions.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Precise replacement of embedded media in DOCX while keeping captions and layout intact.
  • Swap editable source figures (SVG/other) and regenerate PDFs on demand.

FAQPage Schema
How do I replace embedded figures in a Word document without changing the layout or captions?▼

To replace embedded figures in a Word document without altering layout, use a deterministic script to locate and swap the target media inside the DOCX archive. This preserves placement, sizing, and nearby captions automatically.

Can I update SVG or PNG images inside a DOCX file without rebuilding the whole document?▼

Yes, you can update SVG or PNG images inside a DOCX file without rebuilding it manually. The process targets the specific media entries within the DOCX package and swaps them with your new image files.

What is the best way to regenerate a PDF after updating figures in a DOCX report?▼

The best way to regenerate a PDF after updating figures in a DOCX report is to explicitly request PDF regeneration after the media swap. This ensures the newly replaced SVG or PNG figures are reflected in the final output.

Does replacing media in a DOCX archive affect the surrounding text and content?▼

No, replacing media in a DOCX archive does not affect surrounding text and content. The script ensures filetype compatibility and performs a precise swap that preserves the existing layout and all unrelated content.

Do I need Python to automate DOCX figure replacement?▼

Yes, you need Python to automate DOCX figure replacement using this approach. It relies on a deterministic Python script to safely locate and replace embedded media within the document archive.
