If you only need to read it
- Open the document viewer.
- Drop the .docx file.
- You will see it page by page with its formatting: headings, tables, images and page breaks. You can print it or save it as PDF.
If you need to edit it
- Open TS Docs and click Open.
- Pick your .docx. Text, headings, lists, tables, images and links are loaded.
- Make your changes with the formatting bar.
- Click Save .docx or PDF.
What to expect when editing: content is recovered, but custom margins, headers and footers, comments and tracked changes are not. To review a contract with tracked changes, use Word, Google Docs or LibreOffice.
Other free options
- Word for the web (Microsoft account).
- Google Docs (Google account).
- LibreOffice Writer (desktop install).
What about old .doc files?
The .doc format (Word 97-2003) is not supported by the viewer. Open it in Google Docs or LibreOffice and save it as .docx.
