SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

💡 This Skill requires defusedxml, pandoc, docx, libreoffice, poppler-utils, and includes scripts (resource) components.

What problem does it solve? Working with .docx files programmatically is error-prone because they are ZIP archives of complex OOXML. This Skill provides structured workflows for reading, creating, and editing Word documents, including professional redlining with tracked changes and comments. ## Core Features & Use Cases - Text Extraction & Analysis: Convert .docx to markdown with pandoc, preserving tracked changes, or unpack raw XML for comments, media, and metadata. - Document Creation: Generate new Word documents with docx-js (JavaScript/TypeScript) using styles, tables, lists, images, headers, and TOC. - Redlining Workflow: Implement tracked changes and comments in existing documents via a Python Document library with automatic RSID, validation, and batching. - Use Case: Review a legal contract by converting it to markdown, planning batched edits, applying minimal tracked changes with the Document library, and verifying the final document. ## Quick Start Ask the assistant to review the attached contract.docx and propose tracked changes for all outdated terms.

Frequently Asked Questions about docx

High-intent search queries and answers about installing and using this skill.

FAQPage Schema
How do I extract text from a docx file with tracked changes?▼

Use pandoc with the --track-changes=all flag to convert the .docx file to markdown while preserving insertions and deletions. Options include accept, reject, or all depending on how you want changes rendered.

How do I add tracked changes to a Word document programmatically?▼

Unpack the .docx with the provided unpack script, then use the Python Document library to wrap edits in w:ins and w:del elements. The library auto-injects RSIDs, author, and timestamps, and validates the document on save.

What tools create new Word documents from scratch?▼

The docx npm library (docx-js) creates new .docx files using JavaScript or TypeScript with Document, Paragraph, and TextRun components. Export the result with Packer.toBuffer and write it to a file.

Can I convert a Word document to PDF or images?▼

Yes, use LibreOffice headless mode (soffice --convert-to pdf) to produce a PDF, then pdftoppm from Poppler to render pages as JPEG or PNG images for visual analysis.

Why does my edited docx fail to open in Word?▼

Common causes include invalid XML such as nesting w:ins inside w:r elements, missing content-type entries, or broken relationships. The Document library validates on save and raises errors when the document structure is invalid.
