02 / what you get

What happens to your data

Kept

  • Every page becomes an image, so the layout, fonts, tables and pictures look exactly like the printed page
  • Old Word 97-2003 files are read, including ones saved by very old versions of Word
  • One page gives a single image. Several pages give a ZIP with page-1, page-2 and so on
  • PNG images on a white background, lossless, with a longest side of 2000 pixels per page

Good to know

  • Up to 100 pages at a time. A longer document is refused with a message that says how many pages it has.
  • Text in an image cannot be selected or searched. Convert to PDF if you need that.
  • 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.
  • PNG files of full pages are large. Choose JPG if file size matters more than sharp small text.
  • Files up to 300 MB are accepted.

DOC vs PNG

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

PNG

A PNG file stores images without losing any quality (lossless), and supports transparency. It's the default choice for screenshots, logos, icons, and any graphic that needs a see-through background.

Used in: Screenshots · Logos & icons · Graphics with transparency
