Quoting the python-docx documentation:
The Document.add_picture() method adds a specified picture to the end of the document in a paragraph of its own. However, by digging a little deeper into the API you can place text on either side of the picture in its paragraph, or both.
When we “dig a little deeper”, we discover the Run.add_picture()
API.
Here is an example of its use:
from docx import Document
from docx.shared import Inches
document = Document()
p = document.add_paragraph()
r = p.add_run()
r.add_text('Good Morning every body,This is my ')
r.add_picture('/tmp/foo.jpg')
r.add_text(' do you like it?')
document.save('demo.docx')
