Convert DOC to ODT
What is DOC?
Microsoft Word 97-2003 Document
DOC is the legacy binary file format used by Microsoft Word before 2007. Unlike DOCX, it stores data in a proprietary binary format rather than XML. While still supported, it's been largely replaced by the more efficient DOCX format.
- Binary file format (older standard)
- Larger file sizes than DOCX
- Compatible with older Word versions
- Limited features compared to DOCX
- Still widely supported
What is ODT?
OpenDocument Text
ODT is an open standard document format based on XML, used primarily by LibreOffice and OpenOffice. It's similar to DOCX but follows the OASIS OpenDocument standard, ensuring long-term accessibility and avoiding vendor lock-in. Uses ZIP compression for efficient storage.
- Open standard (vendor-independent)
- XML-based with ZIP compression
- Rich text formatting support
- Compatible with multiple office suites
- Smaller file sizes
