I am trying to modify the document via Python-docx_aspose module containing footnotes and references.
In attached screenshot. Text “Schedule 1” has reference to another page as well as footnote superscript 1. while pasting back “Schedule 1” is spilling over to footnote itself. for reference free text this behaviour is not observed. please let me know if more details required. Attaching the sample doc
Redlined_footnote_reference_issue_copy2.docx (84.2 KB)
It looks like the text that contains the footnote reference is being merged with the footnote’s own paragraph when the document is edited with Aspose.Words for Python.
To investigate this as a bug we need a reproducible sample.
Please provide the following
| Item | What to send |
|---|---|
| Aspose.Words for Python version | e.g. 22.12 or the exact NuGet/PyPI package version you are using. |
| Minimal code snippet | The exact code you run that loads the DOCX, modifies the “Schedule 1” paragraph and saves the file. |
| Sample document | A small DOCX (you can zip the one you attached) that contains the paragraph with the page‑reference and the footnote superscript 1. |
| Log output (optional) | If you have logging enabled, attach the console output when the code runs. |
With those details we can reproduce the issue and forward it to the product team. Until then, the only reliable way to verify the behavior is to run the same steps on a fresh document and compare the resulting XML (you can dump doc.get_text() or doc.save("out.xml", SaveFormat.XML)).
Let us know the requested information and we’ll take it from there.
@Himanshu.Tripathi Unfortunately, the problem is not clear enough. If possible, could you please provide your input document, simple code that will allow us to reproduce the problem, your current and expected output documents here for testing? We will investigate the issue and provide you more information.
