Examples

Shows how to configure paragraph formatting to create off-center text.

doc = aw.Document()
builder = aw.DocumentBuilder(doc=doc)
# Center all text that the document builder writes, and set up indents.
# The indent configuration below will create a body of text that will sit asymmetrically on the page.
# The "center" that we align the text to will be the middle of the body of text, not the middle of the page.
paragraph_format = builder.paragraph_format
paragraph_format.alignment = aw.ParagraphAlignment.CENTER
paragraph_format.left_indent = 100
paragraph_format.right_indent = 50
paragraph_format.space_after = 25
builder.writeln('This paragraph demonstrates how left and right indentation affects word wrapping.')
builder.writeln("The space between the above paragraph and this one depends on the DocumentBuilder's paragraph format.")
doc.save(file_name=ARTIFACTS_DIR + 'DocumentBuilder.SetParagraphFormatting.docx')
