I think there are issues with some JPEG-EXIF images, one was reported recently.

Does it work with some JPEGs and not others?

There are some test images you can try here:
https://github.com/python-openxml/python-docx/tree/master/tests/test_files

it appears to work with most of the sample files you sent the WMF errored but all the rest worked. what is in my file that is adding the error. it is a simple picture from an iPhone. is there something I need to strip out? I am trying to connect the document output to a Arc py script so I would prefer not to lose the location information.

[davelawrence3d]

it looks like the error is only present on images from IOS, i saw the thread on the differences in the exif data, but is there a way to modify the exif so that it reads correctly? or are there any plans to update the code to read the ios 8.3 images.

I'm open to a patch if someone wants to dig in there and see what it would take. Unfortunately I'm tied up with other projects now and don't plan to be in there for a while.

I think there are problems when tiff.py reads the bytes of a jpeg type photo taken by iOS system, it may caused by an incorrect way of counting exif messages length, thus the offset can not be correct, I guess.

I have met the same error, is it considered to be fixed?

[wensylviasun]

I've having the same issue with a .JPG file. I'm on latest version 0.8.10.

Has there been a fix?

[sachinrevvsales]

Same error here. Is there a fix?

[dragomej]

For those who are still looking for solution - use Fotosizer Standard Edition. there is option under Miscellaneous Settings -> Image Metadata and Dates -> uncheck all boxes and save/convert images. You don't need to resize. There is option for orginal size on top. For me that fixed docx.image.exceptions.UnexpectedEndOfFileError

Also, if you're on linux, you can try to convert jpg to png using imagemagik's convert command
Example : convert hello.jpg hello.png
