1. docx
2. pywin32
3. ctypes
4. use some native xml library (docx is just bunch of zip-ed xml files), but you need to implement all xml work on your own.
As you don't say what are these set of exceptions we cannot help. Also, if problem with install you can download a wheel from Gohlke and use it e.g.
pip install docx‑0.2.4‑py2.py3‑none‑any.whlalso docx is hosted on PyPI (https://python-docx.readthedocs.io/en/la...ml#install) I don't think there is problem with the PyPI SSL certificate
