Convert Word DOC to DOCX online for free. Upload a DOC file (.doc), and TypeorDrop converts it to DOCX (.docx) on our servers, ready to download. Use it to update Word 97–2003 documents to the format current versions of Microsoft Word, Google Docs and LibreOffice use by default. No software to install, and you can start without an account.
DOC is the older Microsoft Word format used by Word 97 to Word 2003. Newer versions of Word still open it, but in Compatibility Mode.
DOCX is the current Word format. It makes smaller files, opens without Compatibility Mode and works best in Word, Google Docs and online editors.
Text, fonts, tables and images are kept. Very complex layouts can shift slightly, so check the document before you send it. Macros are not kept, because DOCX files cannot contain them.
You can upload files up to 5 MB. The limit is the same on every plan.
Yes. You can convert up to 2 files a day without an account, and 10 a day with a free account. Pro removes the daily limit (fair use) and ads for $4 per month or $38.40 per year.
Your file is uploaded over an encrypted connection and processed on our servers. Uploaded files are deleted automatically after about 24 hours, and converted results after 7 days. We don't share your files with anyone.
No. TypeorDrop runs in your browser on any device, so there is nothing to download or install.
