Maintained by Eoin Campbell
Import the contents of a Microsoft Word file into a book, splitting it into chapters and (optionally) subchapters, based on the heading styles. The file can be saved from Microsoft Word, Google Docs or LibreOffice, as long as it has a '.docx' suffix. Also supports exporting books to Word format, for round-trip editing.

Hi, When I import a .docx it converts paragraph text to Small Caps... any idea how to fix this?
Iván Castiblanco Ramírez
Ok, thanks!!!
Eoin Campbell
The "Export book to Microsoft Word" and "Export this chapter to Microsoft Word" options are only available to the Teacher role, so I'm not sure why you want to disable them. However, I plan to issue a new version shortly which will allow the site administrator to disable the export facility for the Teacher role, while still allowing the Import facility.

How can I disable the option "exporting books to Word format"?

qformat_wordtable (v3.6.3) is not currently dependent on booktool_wordimport, although it will be in the near future. Teachers can export Books to Word, but not Students, as far as I recall. Is allowing Teachers to export books a problem?

Hi,
Is there a way to disable this plugin, for a Moodle instance? I don't find it in site administration.
We don't want to uninstall it because we are testing to use qformat_wordtable and booktool_wordimport is a dependency for it... What if we want our users to export to word from the question bank, but not export books?
Thanks,
Marie-Eve

I can't reproduce your error, but I suggest you try and install the latest version 1.4.6 (Build: 2021041100)

Thanks, it works now smile

Hi Csaba,
On version 1.4.6, you must open exported Word files using Word 2020 on your PC, or else using the Word 365 web app. You will then see the pictures, and can save the file to .docx format. Previous versions of the plugin require you to install a custom Word template containing a VBA macro in order to post-process exported files so that you can see the images. The new mechanism in 1.4 is simpler and safer.

Hi Eoin!
I tested the new 1.4.6 version, but the export still a .doc file (not docx) without pictures.
Do I have to change something to get an export file with pictures?
TIA!

I have released a new version, 1.4.4, which fixes this problem, which only affects Moodle 3.10.
Eoin Campbell
I have the same problem, but I don't know why this is happening. I suggest you uninstall version 1.4.2 and then try installing 1.4.3 instead. If that doesn't work, revert back to version 1.4.1 if you can. I'll try and figure out what is going on.

Hello Eloin!
I can't install the Microsoft Word file Import / Export (Book) update, I use Moodle 3.10. Currently the version that is installed on my Moodle is version 1.4.2 (Build: 2021040500) and it says that version 1.4.3 (Build: 2021040501) is available, but I can't install it.
Thanks for any answer!

Hi Eoin I tried to create an account on moodle2word.net so I can get hold of the template that also converts images into word format (as per your reply to Tamar 07/02/18, but am not receiving the confirmation email to activate my account. Is there any way to get hold of the template?
