Examples
Shows how to apply custom list formatting to paragraphs when using DocumentBuilder.
doc = aw.Document()
# A list allows us to organize and decorate sets of paragraphs with prefix symbols and indents.
# We can create nested lists by increasing the indent level.
# We can begin and end a list by using a document builder's "list_format" property.
# Each paragraph that we add between a list's start and the end will become an item in the list.
# Create a list from a Microsoft Word template, and customize the first two of its list levels.
