This manual page documents briefly the docx2txt commands.
docx2txt docx2txt is a tool that attempts to generate equivalent plain text files from Microsoft .docx
documents, preserving some formatting and document information (which MS text conversion drops) along
with appropriate character conversions for a good (ascii or utf-8) text experience. It is a platform
independent solution consisting of (core) Perl and (wrapper) Unix/Windows shell scripts and a
configuration file to control the output text appearance to a fair extent. It can very conveniently be
used to build a Web-based docx document conversion service. With unzippers like CakeCmd that can deal
with corrupt Zip archives, this tool can extract text from corrupt docx documents in many cases, where MS
Word fails to even open them.
