Aren't there only two word file formats, going back to the 1990s? I've never seen a conversion problem.
- xeromal 3y agoDOC and DOCX right? I feel like there might have been some DOC 97 and DOC 2003 etc stuff going on but my memory fails me
- lwkl 3y agoThere are three .doc pre office 97, .doc after 97 and .docx.
- iforgotpassword 3y agoThere are two file extensions, but with every new word version there was new features, and thus new stuff that had to be represented in the saved file. If you only went forwards and didn't skip to many versions, and remembered to save the file again in the newer version you'd be fine. but as the mastodon thread says, anything from before a certain date won't open at all, and more complex documents from the 90s and early 00s might have surprising issues in modern word.
