# File converters transform text into file outputs such as PDFs. These converters are useful for packaging prompts into distributable formats.
# File converters transform text into file outputs such as PDFs and Word documents. These converters are useful for packaging prompts into distributable formats.
#
# ## Overview
#
# This notebook covers:
#
# - **PDFConverter**: Convert text to PDF documents with templates or direct generation
# - **WordDocConverter**: Convert text to Word documents (.docx) with direct generation or template-based injection

# %% [markdown]
# ## WordDocConverter
#
# The `WordDocConverter` generates Word documents (.docx) from text using `python-docx`. It supports two modes:
#
# 1. **Direct generation**: Convert plain text strings into Word documents. The prompt becomes the document content.
# 2. **Template-based generation**: Supply an existing `.docx` file containing jinja2 placeholders (e.g., `{{ prompt }}`). The converter replaces placeholders with the prompt text while preserving the original document's formatting, tables, headers, and footers. The original file is never modified — a new file is always generated.

The docs state that template-based generation preserves the original document’s formatting. Given the current implementation can collapse run-level formatting when placeholders span multiple runs, please either update the documentation to mention this limitation or improve the implementation to truly preserve mixed formatting.

# ### Direct Word Document Generation
#
# This mode converts plain text strings directly into Word documents. Each newline in the prompt creates a new paragraph.

# %% [markdown]
# ### Template-Based Word Document Generation
#
# This mode takes an existing `.docx` file that contains jinja2 `{{ prompt }}` placeholders and replaces them with the provided prompt text. This is useful for embedding adversarial content into realistic document templates (e.g., resumes, reports, invoices) while preserving all original formatting.

This import of module tempfile is redundant, as it was previously imported on line 144.

dependencies lists pypdf twice with different minimum versions (>=5.1.0 and >=6.6.2). This is conflicting/ambiguous for resolvers and should be collapsed to a single requirement (likely keep only the stricter >=6.6.2 unless there’s a specific reason to lower it).
