Drag and drop a .docx, .docm file onto the converter or click to browse. It works on desktop, tablet and phone.
Step 2: Convert to EPUB
The file is uploaded securely and saved as EPUB by LibreOffice in a temporary, isolated folder.
Step 3: Download the EPUB
Save the EPUB file to your device. You can start again with another file right away.

About the formats

What is DOCX?

DOCX (Word Open XML) is the modern editable format for word processor documents, used by Microsoft Word, Google Docs and LibreOffice. Despite the file extension, a DOCX file is a ZIP container holding the document text and structure as XML. It has been the default format for Word documents since 2007.

Use DOCX when you need an editable document that others can open and change, reports, letters, essays and any text that will be revised or worked on together. Its open XML structure also makes it the reliable choice for converting into PDF before sharing.

What is EPUB?

EPUB is an open standard format for ebooks, based on XHTML and designed so text reflows to fit any screen. It is supported by most ebook readers, tablets and phones, and is the format you find in most online bookstores. Because the text adapts to the device, reading stays comfortable on small and large screens alike.

Use EPUB when you publish an ebook or a long document meant to be read on e-readers, tablets or phones. Its reflowable text makes it the right choice when readers should be able to adjust font size and screen.
