Why Convert ODT to DOCX?
ODT is the open standard format for LibreOffice/OpenOffice Writer, but most business and academic environments standardize on Microsoft Word's DOCX format for document exchange and collaboration.
Converting to DOCX means Word users can open and edit your document natively, without needing LibreOffice or OpenOffice installed themselves.
Because ODT and DOCX represent some formatting features (styles, footnotes, complex tables) somewhat differently, documents with heavy custom formatting can occasionally need a quick formatting check after conversion.

Frequently Asked Questions
Will my document remain editable in Word?
Yes — the converted DOCX is a fully editable Word document, not a flattened copy.
Why might formatting look slightly different after conversion?
ODT and DOCX handle some styles, footnotes, and complex table formatting differently — most documents convert cleanly, but heavily customized formatting can shift slightly and may need a quick check.
Will tracked changes and comments transfer?
Basic comments typically transfer; if your ODT uses LibreOffice-specific change-tracking features, double-check they appear correctly in Word afterward.
Do I need LibreOffice or Word installed?
No — the conversion happens entirely on our servers.
Is there a file size limit?
50MB free, 100MB for registered accounts.
