02 / what you get

What happens to your data

Kept

  • Layout, fonts, headings, lists, tables and images look like in the original
  • Headers and footers and hyperlinks are kept, and the text stays selectable and searchable
  • Old Word 97-2003 files are read, including ones saved by very old versions of Word
  • A standard PDF that opens the same way on every phone, computer and browser

Good to know

  • Comments in the margin are not part of the PDF.
  • Fonts that our server does not have are replaced by similar ones, so a line or page break can move slightly.
  • Password-protected documents are not supported, and macros inside the file are not run.
  • Files up to 300 MB are accepted.

DOC vs PDF

DOC

A DOC file is the older, legacy Microsoft Word format (Word 97-2003), stored as a proprietary binary format. Still shows up in old archives and email attachments, but Word itself has defaulted to DOCX since 2007.

Used in: Legacy Word documents · Old email attachments

PDF

A PDF file locks in exact layout, fonts, and pagination so it looks identical on every device — the standard for sharing finished documents, contracts, and anything meant to be printed rather than edited.

Used in: Sharing finished documents · Printing · Contracts & forms
