(I updated the code with comments)
Hi everyone, I am creating an xml file with python using xml.etree.ElementTree. In input I have a docx, where the titles are formatted like "Header1" and the paragraphs under the title will be the text of the title (in short).
I need to format the xml properly. At the moment I have this code (I attach it)
One of the xml output I have is
https://1drv.ms/i/s!AohXx8uDzsTq8xsoHKat...T?e=omJVaQ
...here after "lines" elem. the text is not wrapping. Instead I want that "lines" is like a group of the string like is here
https://1drv.ms/i/s!AohXx8uDzsTq8xzcRknU...g?e=QvGaYD
I attached also a test file.
If you prefer, here is the code:
