Code for Word · 码文

English | 中文

Paste highlighted code into Word — colors, frame, margins, and optional caption rows stay put. That is the main job. An optional text mode can set prose like a thesis; the app always opens in code mode.

If this saves you a thesis night, ★ Star the repo and tell a classmate who still screenshots code into Word.

Use it

1) In the browser (no install)

Open web app: https://l00plegend.github.io/code-for-word/

Source mirror: Gitee · loopisme/code-for-word (synced with GitHub; one web URL only, so it cannot drift)

• Paste → adjust options → Download DOCX (recommended on the web)
• Copy to Word works in the browser too, but paste quality varies; desktop app is better for that

2) Windows app (best paste quality)

1. Download CodeForWord-Setup-*.exe:
   • Gitee Releases (China): https://gitee.com/loopisme/code-for-word/releases
   • GitHub Releases: https://github.com/L00PLeGeNd/code-for-word/releases/latest
2. Install and open Code for Word
3. Paste → Copy to Word → Ctrl+V in Word / WPS, then choose Keep Source Formatting (保留源格式) in the paste options — otherwise Word remaps fonts/colors and the frame looks wrong

If Windows SmartScreen says the publisher is unknown, choose More info → Run anyway (builds are not code-signed yet).

Closing the window hides the app to the system tray.

Word vs WPS: Desktop paste targets Microsoft Word first. WPS usually works; if a caption row looks clipped, try Download DOCX or turn off underlines and paste again.

Modes

Opens in Code. Switch to Text when you need thesis-style prose. There is no auto-detect mode (too easy to misclassify).

Code mode (default)

Syntax highlighting, type size, line numbers, page margins, code inset, frame, optional underlines, and in-box caption rows. The desktop app copies RTF so Word keeps the colors and the frame.

Text / paper mode (optional)

Choose Text when you want prose set like a thesis — not required for pasting code:

• Body defaults to 宋体 12 pt, Times New Roman for Latin, 1.5 line spacing, 2-character first-line indent, justified
• Headings use 黑体: 16 pt, 14 pt, then 12 pt
• Numbering can be academic 1 / 1.1, thesis chapters, official-document style, or left as written
• Lists, captions, references, formulas, code blocks inside prose, and Markdown or Excel tables
• Optional cleanup for OCR full-width characters, extra spaces, and some LaTeX markup

Translation stays off. When you enable it, text is sent only to the free engine or the endpoint you configure.
