Ch 8 - 4.2.3 - Document File Formats

  • Doc - Word documents from 97-2003 are in this format.
  • Docx - Default document that Word saves as.
  • HTML - Converts the document into a webpage.
  • PDF - Is the most portable, great for final documents and locks in the stylings. 
  • TXT - Can be opened in any program that can read text but will strip any formatting.

Doc/Docx

PDF

HTML

Text

Here's hoping this helps in understanding when to use what kind of  documents.

    What you listed are definitely the most opened and produced file formats by and from Chapter 4 Microsoft Word :-)

    Take a look at the different file formats by and from Chapter 5 Microsoft Excel ^_^

    Learning about document file formats have helped me submit online assignments. Because I use a MacBook, documents save differently and I had to convert the document to .docx

    Saving a document in multiple file formats is helpful.

    I can only imagine the US military still using old file formats, when I left the service in 2016 they still had computers using windows XP.

    I knew all but one. I didn't know that Doc was only for the years 1997-2003.

    I used to hate doing bullet points until I understood how to used them properly.

    These formats are incredibly useful for a variety of purposes, and it's great that some of them may be switched out quickly.

    Thank you for sharing. This is very useful. If I have to use an older version of Word now I know to convert the file to a Doc File.

    I actually had to deal with these different formats the other day when sending out my resume.
