Add genuine binary DOC, XLS or PPT files. You can mix the three formats.
LibreOffice converts each file on the server. Large documents can take a few minutes.
One input returns one converted file. Multiple inputs return a ZIP archive.
Office Format Converter updates genuine legacy Word, Excel and PowerPoint files without requiring a local Microsoft Office installation. Upload an old document, workbook or presentation and download the corresponding modern format. The document type stays the same: Word remains Word, Excel remains Excel, and PowerPoint remains PowerPoint.
| Input | Output | Typical use |
|---|---|---|
| DOC | DOCX | Update an older Word report, letter or template. |
| XLS | XLSX | Prepare an older spreadsheet for modern workbook tools. |
| PPT | PPTX | Update a legacy PowerPoint presentation for further editing. |
Select a genuine DOC file, click Convert files and download the DOCX result. Review page breaks, fonts, tables and headers before printing or distributing the converted document.
Upload an XLS workbook to obtain an XLSX version. Open the result and check formulas, number formats and worksheet layout. If you need to combine or separate its tabs afterward, continue with Merge / Split Excel, subject to that tool’s feature limits.
Upload a PPT presentation to create a PPTX file. Check each slide after conversion, especially fonts, charts, animations and embedded objects, since rendering and feature support can differ between office applications.
The output format is selected from the input extension automatically. You do not need to choose a separate output setting for each file. Batch filenames have numbered prefixes to avoid collisions when source files share a name.
A batch succeeds only when every file converts successfully. If one document fails, the tool shows an error instead of returning an incomplete archive. Remove the problem file and retry the others, or try it separately to identify the cause.
Renaming report.doc to report.docx does not convert its contents. Likewise, some applications export HTML or CSV with an XLS extension. This tool checks for genuine binary DOC, XLS or PPT inputs and refuses renamed text formats. Open those files in a compatible office application and save them in the appropriate format first.
Password-protected documents are not supported. Save an unencrypted copy before uploading. VBA macros are not retained in the DOCX, XLSX and PPTX output formats; keep your original files if you rely on macros. LibreOffice performs the conversion, so fonts, pagination, formulas, charts and presentation effects may differ from Microsoft Office.
Processing is limited to 90 seconds per converted file and five minutes per job. A damaged or unusually complex file may fail even when it is below the upload size limit. Try a smaller batch or open and resave the affected document before another attempt. If the server is already processing another Excel or Office conversion, wait briefly and try again.
This tool converts old editable Office formats to modern editable formats. To produce a PDF instead, use Office to PDF. To reduce an existing document’s size, see Compress Documents.
