Writing text to a word document (word 2007) using the zipfile module
via python coding (python 2.7). Below if the section of code I am
using to do this. I can't figure out what character I need to use to
get it to add new lines to the zipfile.

Word files (2007) are zipped-up XML files. In XML, whitespace is ignored, so probably you need some special tag (like <br/> in XHTML) to insert the line break.

The easiest way to find this out - short of reading the specs - is to open the file in Word, add a line break, save it and then run a diff tool over the output and the original file.

If you want to go the specs route instead, you can start here:
