Markdown is a lightweight markup language that is becoming increasingly popular for writing content on the web. It offers a simple and human-readable syntax for formatting text, adding links, images, lists, and more. Many websites and content management systems support Markdown, as it can be easily converted to HTML. On the other hand, Microsoft Word is a widely used word-processing software that utilizes its own proprietary file format. While Word offers robust formatting options, its files are not always compatible with other platforms or content management systems.
In certain scenarios, it is useful to convert between Word and Markdown file formats. It allows you to take advantage of Word's advanced editing tools while also being able to publish your content in a web-friendly Markdown format. In this article, we will demonstrate how to convert Markdown to Word DOC or DOCX and convert Word DOC or DOCX to Markdown in Python using Spire.Doc for Python.

Converting a document from Word to TIFF can be useful when you need to share the content as an image file, such as for electronic forms, presentations, or publishing. The TIFF format preserves the visual layout and appearance of the document. Conversely, converting a TIFF image to a Word document can be helpful when you want to present information in the Word format.
This article demonstrates how to convert Word to TIFF and TIFF to Word (non-editable) using Python and the Spire.Doc for Python library.
Install the Required Libraries
This situation relies on the combination of Spire.Doc for Python and Pillow (PIL). Spire.Doc is used to read, create and convert Word documents, while the PIL library is used for handling TIFF files and accessing their frames.
The libraries can be easily installed on your device through the following pip commands.
pip install Spire.Doc pip install pillow
Convert Word to TIFF in Python
To convert a Word document into a TIFF image, the initial step is to use the Spire.Doc library to load the Word document and transform the individual pages into image data streams. Then, you can leverage the functionality provided by the PIL to merge these separate image streams into a unified TIFF image.
The following are the steps to convert Word to TIFF using Python.
- Create a Document object.
- Load a Word document from a specified file path.
- Iterate through the pages in the document.
- Convert each page into an image stream using Document.SaveImageToSteams() method.
- Convert the image stream into a PIL image.
- Combine these PIL images into a single TIFF image.
- Python
from spire.doc import *
from spire.doc.common import *
from PIL import Image
from io import BytesIO
# Create a Document object
doc = Document()
# Load a Word document
doc.LoadFromFile("C:\\Users\\Administrator\\Desktop\\Input.docx")
# Create an empty list to store PIL Images
images = []
# Iterate through pages in the document
for i in range(doc.GetPageCount()):
# Convert a specific page to image stream
with doc.SaveImageToStreams(i, ImageType.Bitmap) as imageData:
# Open a specific image stream as a PIL image
img = Image.open(BytesIO(imageData.ToArray()))
# Append the PIL image to list
images.append(img)
# Save the PIL Images as a multi-page TIFF file
images[0].save("Output/ToTIFF.tiff", save_all=True, append_images=images[1:])
# Dispose resources
doc.Dispose()
Convert TIFF to Word in Python
By utilizing PIL library, you can load a TIFF file and break it down into separate PNG images for each frame. You can then utilize the Spire.Doc library to incorporate these separate PNG files as distinct pages within a Microsoft Word document.
To convert a TIFF image to a Word document using Python, follow these steps.
- Create a Document object.
- Add a section to it and set the page margins to zero.
- Load a TIFF image.
- Iterate though the frames in the TIFF image.
- Get a specific frame, and save it as a PNG file.
- Add a paragraph to the section.
- Append the image file to the paragraph.
- Set the page size to be the same as the image size.
- Save the document to a Word file.
- Python
from spire.doc import *
from spire.doc.common import *
from PIL import Image
import io
# Create a Document object
doc = Document()
# Add a section
section = doc.AddSection()
# Set margins to 0
section.PageSetup.Margins.All = 0.0
# Load a TIFF image
tiff_image = Image.open("C:\\Users\\Administrator\\Desktop\\TIFF.tiff")
# Iterate through the frames in it
for i in range(tiff_image.n_frames):
# Go to the current frame
tiff_image.seek(i)
# Extract the image of the current frame
frame_image = tiff_image.copy()
# Save the image to a PNG file
frame_image.save(f"temp/output_frame_{i}.png")
# Add a paragraph
paragraph = section.AddParagraph()
# Append image to the paragraph
image = paragraph.AppendPicture(f"temp/output_frame_{i}.png")
# Get image width and height
width = image.Width
height = image.Height
# Set the page size to be the same as the image size
section.PageSetup.PageSize = SizeF(width, height)
# Save the document to a Word file
doc.SaveToFile("Output/ToWord.docx",FileFormat.Docx2019)
# Dispose resources
doc.Dispose()
