Word Document (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.

Source formats: .docx, .doc
