My approach to this is to Google for "microsoft word object model".  
Their documentation on their object model ebbs and flows, but you can 
usually find a reference somewhere.

However, I consider this a fairly odd request.  What are you actually 
trying to do?  If you want to generate and print formatted documents, 
you would have finer control and a much more flexible solution by using 
ReportLab to create PDF files, or HTML and the wxHtmlPrinting class in 
wxPython.
