Editor's review
This software tool is a converter for DocX files into the older DOC files.
Microsoft introduced the DocX format with the Office 2007 version. Documents produced by Office products up to 2003 version thus became incompatible. Yet, people kept using these older versions. Even today there is a substantial amount of users who are still with 2003 version or older ones. There is a divergence of documents in DOC and DOCX formats. Users of the older version of the Office then needs a converter to change DOCX documents into DOC so that these users can keep communicating. This tool fits right into that usage niche. It supports conversion to all Word formats including Docx, Doc file formats; for example Word 97-2003 to Word 2010 or 2007 (DOC to Docx ), Word 2010 or Word 2007 to Doc (Docx to Doc), etc.
The user interface is very easy to use and comes in a choice of languages. That includes English, Chinese, German, French, Italian, Japanese, Russian and Spanish. Thus it should be easy to use for a whole range of common users. The interface lets you search for and add files to the batch list quite easily. Options available when searching for the files include specifying folder and/or matching case of the file/folder name. You can change the order of the documents to be processed and set up an output folder. You get a “ready” indicator to say that the file has converted completely. A time stamp is also available that indicates the time at completion. A log of events is always useful in such situations. But despite that, this is a good and handy tool.
