docxTranslat: plugin to import WinWord files into Sigil chapter by chapter

$

This pluging requires Windows Office as it uses Windows API to analyze the
WinWord files. I tested it on:
  • Windows 10- Windows 11
  • Windows Office 2010- Windows Office 2013
  • Sigil 1.9.30- 2.0.2
  • Python 3.6.5- Python 3.10.2+ PyQt5, QScintilla, pywin32
  • Kobo Aura

Plugin features
In addition to importing WinWord files into Sigil, it allows you to:
  • load images (jpg, png, gif) into Sigil.
  • create in Sigil a text file starting from an imported image.
  • view Sigil Spine files, modify their order and delete unwanted files.
  • view Sigil Manifest files.
  • create specific XHTML pages for epub (Title, Half Title, Copyright, Dedication, Epigraph and Table Of Content or TOC).
  • write, execute and save Python scripts in order to interact with the Sigil BookContainer class (bk)

Attached files
  • userManual.zip: contains the files userManual.epub and docxTranslat.docx (text and images of the user manual. I recommend to use this file as plugin test file).
    I made userManual.epub starting from docxTranslat.docx and using the plugin, without any manual intervention on XHTML code.
    In chapter '0 - Quick start' of the user manual, you will find the procedure for a first, quick plugin run.
    The EPUB 2 userManual.epub looks pretty good in Sigil and Calibre. On Kobo Aura there are some display imperfections.
  • docxTranslat.zip: the plugin file to import into Sigil.
  • images.zip: contains some images used in userManual.epub but non contained in docxTranslat.docx.


:thanks: for reading.
