It does not convert numbered items

[robo3945]

Your code does not convert numbered items in lists.

An example:

1. bla bla bla bla
2. bla bla bla bla

Are converted in:

bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla

Hi, I too faced the same issues mentioned by robo3945. Also I we should add the code to extract the endnotes.xml & footnotes.xml . Similar to the header and footer*.xml

I will try to work on this feature but feel free to send a pull request too.

Yes this would be super, super useful if we could extract bullets/numbered lists specifically!

Hi...? Is anybody here...?

I have a fork that converts bullets and numbers in docx to plain text.

https://github.com/ShayHill/docx2python

To get something close to python-docx2txt output:

pip install docx2python
text = docx2python('path/to/file.docx').text

@ShayHill very good, thank you

[MostafaRabia]

@ShayHill Is there is option to not to convert hyper links to a tag? I just need the text.

[ShayHill]

There is not, though this may be accomplished post-conversion with re.sub:

re.sub(r'<a.*?>(.*?)<a/>', r"\1", text)

very good, thanks but it's </a> not <a/> 😅😅
