What’s the difference between the DOC and DOCX file format?
DOC and DOCX are both file formats used by Microsoft Word. The difference between them is that the DOC file extension is an older version, used by Microsoft Word 2003 and earlier. The DOCX file extension is the new file format. So, if you have Microsoft Word 2003 or earlier, you’ll need to download the free Microsoft Office Compatibility Pack. This lets you view, edit, and save DOCX files.
Are my documents and personal data safe?
We understand that your privacy is essential. When you use Adobe online tools, if you don’t sign in and save your work, any files you upload will be deleted from our servers. Find out more about the privacy practices of Adobe applications and websites at our Privacy Centre.
