3. Pure Python Libraries (Zero dipendenze esterne)

a) Per DOCX/ODT:

<a href="https://magnetimo.blogspot.com/2025/05/convertire-documenti-con-python.html?m=1#cb5-1"></a>pip install python-docx odfpy

Esempio conversione ODT → DOCX:

<a href="https://magnetimo.blogspot.com/2025/05/convertire-documenti-con-python.html?m=1#cb6-1"></a>from odfpy import OpenDocument, load
<a href="https://magnetimo.blogspot.com/2025/05/convertire-documenti-con-python.html?m=1#cb6-2"></a>from docx import Document
<a href="https://magnetimo.blogspot.com/2025/05/convertire-documenti-con-python.html?m=1#cb6-3"></a>
<a href="https://magnetimo.blogspot.com/2025/05/convertire-documenti-con-python.html?m=1#cb6-4"></a>def odt_to_docx(input_path, output_path):
<a href="https://magnetimo.blogspot.com/2025/05/convertire-documenti-con-python.html?m=1#cb6-5"></a>    doc = Document()
<a href="https://magnetimo.blogspot.com/2025/05/convertire-documenti-con-python.html?m=1#cb6-6"></a>    odt = load(input_path)
<a href="https://magnetimo.blogspot.com/2025/05/convertire-documenti-con-python.html?m=1#cb6-7"></a>    
<a href="https://magnetimo.blogspot.com/2025/05/convertire-documenti-con-python.html?m=1#cb6-8"></a>    for para in odt.getElementsByType('paragraph'):
<a href="https://magnetimo.blogspot.com/2025/05/convertire-documenti-con-python.html?m=1#cb6-9"></a>        doc.add_paragraph(para.getAttribute('text'))
<a href="https://magnetimo.blogspot.com/2025/05/convertire-documenti-con-python.html?m=1#cb6-10"></a>    
<a href="https://magnetimo.blogspot.com/2025/05/convertire-documenti-con-python.html?m=1#cb6-11"></a>    doc.save(output_path)
<a href="https://magnetimo.blogspot.com/2025/05/convertire-documenti-con-python.html?m=1#cb6-12"></a>
<a href="https://magnetimo.blogspot.com/2025/05/convertire-documenti-con-python.html?m=1#cb6-13"></a>odt_to_docx('input.odt', 'output.docx')

b) Per PDF:

<a href="https://magnetimo.blogspot.com/2025/05/convertire-documenti-con-python.html?m=1#cb7-1"></a>pip install pdf2docx 

Esempio PDF → DOCX:

<a href="https://magnetimo.blogspot.com/2025/05/convertire-documenti-con-python.html?m=1#cb8-1"></a>from pdf2docx import Converter
<a href="https://magnetimo.blogspot.com/2025/05/convertire-documenti-con-python.html?m=1#cb8-2"></a>
<a href="https://magnetimo.blogspot.com/2025/05/convertire-documenti-con-python.html?m=1#cb8-3"></a>cv = Converter('input.pdf')
<a href="https://magnetimo.blogspot.com/2025/05/convertire-documenti-con-python.html?m=1#cb8-4"></a>cv.convert('output.docx', start=0, end=None)
<a href="https://magnetimo.blogspot.com/2025/05/convertire-documenti-con-python.html?m=1#cb8-5"></a>cv.close()

4. Soluzioni alternative specifiche

a) Per fogli di calcolo (CSV/XLSX/ODS):

<a href="https://magnetimo.blogspot.com/2025/05/convertire-documenti-con-python.html?m=1#cb9-1"></a>pip install pandas pyexcel pyexcel-xlsx pyexcel-ods

Esempio CSV → ODS:

<a href="https://magnetimo.blogspot.com/2025/05/convertire-documenti-con-python.html?m=1#cb10-1"></a>import pandas as pd
<a href="https://magnetimo.blogspot.com/2025/05/convertire-documenti-con-python.html?m=1#cb10-2"></a>df = pd.read_csv('input.csv')
<a href="https://magnetimo.blogspot.com/2025/05/convertire-documenti-con-python.html?m=1#cb10-3"></a>df.to_excel('output.ods', engine='odf')

b) Per presentazioni (PPT → PDF):

<a href="https://magnetimo.blogspot.com/2025/05/convertire-documenti-con-python.html?m=1#cb11-1"></a>pip install python-pptx

Esempio PPTX → PDF (richiede unoconv):

<a href="https://magnetimo.blogspot.com/2025/05/convertire-documenti-con-python.html?m=1#cb12-1"></a>import subprocess
<a href="https://magnetimo.blogspot.com/2025/05/convertire-documenti-con-python.html?m=1#cb12-2"></a>subprocess.run(['unoconv', '-f', 'pdf', 'presentazione.pptx'])

5. Docker per ambienti isolati

Se vuoi evitare installazioni di sistema:

<a href="https://magnetimo.blogspot.com/2025/05/convertire-documenti-con-python.html?m=1#cb13-1"></a>docker run -v $(pwd):/convert -it docker.io/libreoffice/headless unoconv -f pdf /convert/documento.docx

Tabella riassuntiva delle alternative:

Formato	Libreria Consigliata	Comando Installazione
DOCX ↔︎ ODT	odfpy + python-docx	pip install odfpy python-docx
PDF ↔︎ DOCX	pdf2docx	pip install pdf2docx
XLSX ↔︎ ODS	pandas	pip install pandas pyexcel-ods
Presentazioni	unoconv (via Docker)	docker pull libreoffice/headless

Consigli finali:

1. Per massima compatibilità: usa LibreOffice/UNO (anche via Docker)
2. Per documenti semplici: Pandoc o soluzioni pure Python
3. Per ambienti senza GUI: prediligi pdf2docx, python-docx, odfpy
4. Evita pywin32 o librerie Windows-specifiche se vuoi cross-platform
