mayoor / pyrtf-ng Goto Github PK

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Look for information regarding py rtf that isnt in the documentation

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
Better documentaiton and examples

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?


Please provide any additional information below.
If you drop me a line Ill be happy to contribute. Personally I am partial
to the wiki documentation as it gives users a very low treshhold for
contributing information.

What steps will reproduce the problem?
If no class is matched before the test on line 453, a NameError exception
is raised, because no Image class has been imported into Renderer.py:

NameError: global name 'Image' is not defined

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
pyrtf-ng (svn r73), OS X 10.5.5, System Python 2.5

Please provide any additional information below.
Related to Issue 2.

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. c1 = Cell( Paragraph( 'Row One, Cell One'   ) )

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
global name 'StringType' is not defined

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
OS X 10.5

Please provide any additional information below.
inert from types import * in paragraph.py and now it working

What steps will reproduce the problem?
Trying to use pyrft-ng to link/embedd a MSword document (or any in essence 
a external file).

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
Preferbly a hyperlink-type behavior whereby the appropriate application 
will open the referenced file. But my specific problem revolves around 
representing anouther MSword document as anything other than plain text 
(as in "for reference see x.doc")

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
Latest pyrtf-ng from trunk and pyrtf 0.45. (fetched 20090202)
Python 2.4.4
Debian etch

Please provide any additional information below.
I know this is not nessasarilly the scope of Pyrtf-ng, but it seems the 
place where someone recently has devoted a little time towards pyrtf. So I 
am essentially shooting of random requests as I dont know where to turn.

Hello,

I have not found a way to write a response in Google Code UI. Thus I
decided to create this issue record.

Recently I searched out Python RTF parser library and only one applicable
choice was your pyrtf-ng but parser code within it is uncompleted as I saw.
Thus I have implemented very simple RTF parser - one thing that I need from
RTF file is text content and it works for me very well.

Thank you for this library - it helped me very much, please check out
attached 'rtf_parser.zip' maybe some ideas can be applied to pyrtf-ng code.

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Append unicode string to Footer element
2. Append Footer to Document object
3. Render Document object using Renderer.Write()

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
The conditional test in Renderer._WriteElements() skips down to line 453:

elif clss in [ RawCode, Image ]:

An exception is thrown (caused by a separate issue):
NameError: global name 'Image' is not defined

Suggest changing line 450 from:

elif clss == StringType:

to 

elif clss == StringType or clss == UnicodeType:

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
pyrtf-ng (svn r73), OS X 10.5.5, System Python 2.5

Please provide any additional information below.
Test file attached.

Various types need to be imported into document.paragraph to prevent a
NameError exception:

eg: global name 'StringType' is not defined

This is resolved by importing various types:

from types import StringType, IntType, FloatType, LongType
