Insert Bullets in Word using Python

This article guides on how to insert bullets in Word using Python. It shares the details of setting the development environment using Aspose.Words for Python via .NET in any supported platforms, and a sample code to demonstrate the addition of bullet points in Word using Python. You will learn to add bullet or number points list and change the level of list items for creating sub-items.

Steps to Create Bullets in Word using Python

  1. Set the environment to use Aspose.Words for Python via .NET to insert bullets
  2. Create a new Word file with a Document class for adding bullets
  3. Instantiate a DocumentBuilder class object using the above Document object
  4. Call the apply_bullet_default() method to start a bullet points list
  5. Insert bullet points using the writeln() method
  6. Set the bullet point level using the list_indent() and list_outdent in the list_format class
  7. Stop adding the bullet points using the remove_numbers() method and save the output

These steps explain how to work with Microsoft Word bullet points using Python. Generate a new Word file, attach a DocumentBuilder object with it, call the apply_bullet_default() method to start the bullet list, and insert points using the writeln() method. Use list_indent() and list_outdent() to set the list item indentation and call the remove_numbers() method to stop the list.

Code to Add Bullets in Word using Python

This sample code demonstrates how to add bullet points in Word using Python. To create a number list, use the apply_number_default() method and the same remove_numbers() method to stop the list. Call the list_outdent() method for adding the main items and call the list_indent() for creating the sub-items.
