3 libraries for .docx:

python-docx: most commonly used one, footnote not included
docx2txt: no footnotes, but can get text out of imagine without any extra function written
mammoth: switch from docx to html, then parse it using beautiful soup; output could be a bit messy but footnote is for sure included.
