Questions people ask
Is my document uploaded?
No. It is opened and converted in your browser on this device.
How can it be exact without uploading?
The full Office engine runs LibreOffice, the free office suite, inside this page. The first time, your browser downloads it once (about 78 MB) and keeps it, so later conversions start quickly. Your files never leave the device and it costs nothing.
Can it open old .doc files?
Yes. With the full Office engine, old Word 97–2003 files open fully, with formatting, pictures and tables, and can be saved as .docx.
Can it make Markdown?
Yes, with the “Quick” method, which also gives HTML and plain text.
Are fonts and Hindi text kept?
Arial, Times New Roman, Calibri and Cambria are replaced with look-alike fonts of exactly the same size, so lines and pages break as in Office. Fonts the engine does not have are swapped for similar ones. Hindi and other Indian scripts are not drawn by the exact engine yet: use “Quick” for those files.
