how to export images to word file?

I am working on a script which saves images to word file. I have been able to create a function to export images.

def exp_images():  #export images to word file
    document = Document()
    paragraph = document.add_paragraph()
    script = paragraph.add_run()
    script.add_text('This is a test sentence')
    script.add_picture('image1.png', width=Inches(6.5))
    document.save('demo.docx')


if __name__ == "__main__":
    exp_images()

The only issue I am facing is how to call that function repeatedly, and the function must save image to new line, and must not overwrite the existing image. So, I just need help with this. Thanks

You can pass all the images to your function, iterate all of them, append them to the document and finally save the document.

def exp_images(images):  # export images to word file
    document = Document()
    paragraph = document.add_paragraph()
    script = paragraph.add_run()
    script.add_text('This is a test sentence')

    # loop through a list of images and add each one to the document
    for image in images:
        # add a line break between the text and the image
        script.add_break(WD_BREAK.LINE)
        # add the image to the document
        script.add_picture(image, width=Inches(6.5))

    document.save('demo.docx')

if __name__ == "__main__":
    # call the exp_images function multiple times, loop through a list of images and add each one to the document
    images = ['image1.png', 'image2.png', 'image3.png']:
    exp_images(images)
