Word Macro-Enabled Document (DOCM) is a Microsoft Word document that is allowed to contain VBA macros — small programs that automate tasks such as formatting, filling in fields, or generating reports. It is otherwise identical to DOCX: the same ZIP-based Open XML package, with an extra part holding the macro code. Microsoft created the separate extension deliberately, so that a file’s name reveals whether it can run code.
Microsoft Word opens DOCM and shows a security warning before enabling macros. Only click Enable Content if you trust the sender — macro-enabled documents are a common malware vector.
LibreOffice Writer opens DOCM files and displays the text normally, although VBA macros may not run correctly. To read a document safely without any macro risk, save or convert it to PDF, or re-save it as plain DOCX, which strips the code entirely. You can also convert the file with our DOCM to PDF tool.

Word 97-2003 Document (DOC) is the original binary format of Microsoft Word, used as the default from the 1980s until Word 2007 replaced it with DOCX. A DOC file packs text, formatting, images, tables, and embedded objects into a single proprietary structure. Because that structure is binary rather than XML, DOC files are more prone to corruption, harder for other programs to interpret, and can carry macro-based malware.
Every current version of Microsoft Word still opens DOC files, usually in Compatibility Mode, and offers to convert them to the newer DOCX format.
LibreOffice Writer, Google Docs, and Apple Pages all handle DOC well. Since support for this legacy format is gradually being reduced, converting your archive is sensible — our DOC to DOCX and DOC to PDF tools do it in one step.
