title: Python 3: How do I save a docx file to a specific directory?
body: <p>I created a script that reads information from a csv file and outputs it to a docx file. My issue is that when the docx file saves, it saves it to the same folder where my python script is located. I have a folder on my desktop, called python, within this folder is where I want to save the docx file. Below is a piece of my script where this should take place. Thanks for your help!</p>
  
  <pre><code>    customer_list = r'C:\Users\path to csv file'
      csv_file = read_emails(customer_list) #Function that turns csv into dictionary
  
      for customer in csv_file:
          word_template = r'C:\Users\path to word template'
          document = Document(word_template)
  
          customer_email = customer['email']
          customer_contact = customer['contact']
  
          document.add_paragraph(respond_by)
          document.add_paragraph(date_sign)
  
          terms = r'C:\Users\path to terms and conditions'
  
          with open(terms,'r') as trms:
              for line in trms:
              document.add_paragraph(line)
  
          filename = (customer_contact + '.docx')
  
          document.save(filename) #Here I want to save to a different folder
  </code></pre>
