DOCX to HTML Converter

Convert a Word DOCX to a standalone HTML file. Useful for publishing on the web, embedding in a CMS, or just opening the document anywhere with a browser. The HTML is self-contained — styles are inlined, so you can double-click the file and it renders cleanly without any extra setup.

  • Sensitive documents stay private

    Resumes, contracts, NDAs, legal drafts — these are the documents most people convert most often, and they're the ones you absolutely don't want uploaded to a stranger's server. Everything here happens in your browser. The converted file goes straight to your downloads.

  • DOCX → HTML done right

    The output is a complete HTML5 document with embedded CSS for readable typography (serif body text, sans-serif headings, comfortable line-height, centered 720px reading column). Looks like a Substack or Medium article. Strip the wrapper if you just want the fragment for pasting into a CMS.

  • Honest about what transfers

    After a successful conversion, the tool lists anything that didn't transfer perfectly: unsupported images, custom Word styles, complex tables. You see exactly what to double-check. No claims that complex Word documents convert pixel-perfect — they don't, in any browser-based tool.

Frequently asked questions

Does my document ever leave my device?

No. The DOCX is parsed by a JavaScript library running in your browser tab; conversion happens entirely on your device. Open DevTools while you convert — the Network tab will show zero traffic carrying your document. This matters for resumes, contracts, legal drafts, and anything sensitive.

What kinds of DOCX content are preserved?

Headings, paragraphs, bullet and numbered lists, bold and italic text, and basic formatting transfer reliably. Tables transfer in a simplified form (rows kept, complex cell merging may flatten). Images are NOT included in v1 — if you need images preserved, save as PDF directly from Word for now. Custom fonts, colors, and exact pixel positioning from Word are not preserved by design — the output uses standard fonts so it renders identically on every device.

What about legacy .doc files (Word 97-2003)?

Legacy .doc files aren't supported — they use a different binary format that no browser-side library reads. If you have a .doc file, open it in Word, LibreOffice, or Google Docs and save as DOCX, then convert here.

Is there a file size limit?

No fixed limit. DOCX files are typically small (under 5 MB even with significant content), so memory isn't usually a concern. Very large DOCX files with hundreds of embedded objects might struggle on older phones.

Does this work on mobile?

Yes. Tap the drop zone to open your phone's file picker, pick a DOCX from your Files / Downloads / cloud apps, and the converted file downloads back to your device. iCloud and Google Drive both expose DOCX files through the picker.

What if my DOCX has content this tool can't handle?

The converter surfaces warnings after a successful conversion — you'll see a list of items that didn't transfer perfectly (unsupported image formats, custom Word styles, footnotes, etc.). The conversion still completes; you just know what to double-check in the output. For perfect fidelity on complex documents, opening in Word and using its built-in PDF export is the only fully-faithful option.

Can I paste this HTML straight into WordPress / Substack / Medium?

Yes for the body content. The output is a full HTML document with , , and tags. Most CMSs want just the body's inner content — copy everything between and in the downloaded file. The inline CSS in the only matters if you're hosting the file standalone; CMS platforms apply their own styling.

What does the styled output look like?

Clean, readable, serif-heading defaults. Body text in Georgia at 18px with 1.7 line height, headings in a system sans-serif, code in monospace with a light gray background, blockquotes with a left border. The look is intentionally generic — easy to override with your own CSS if you're integrating into a site with established styling.

Are images included?

Not in v1. Images from the DOCX are listed in the warnings panel but not embedded in the output. If you need images preserved, save as PDF from Word and use a different tool to host the PDF online for now. Image support is on the roadmap.

Does the HTML pass accessibility checks?

It uses semantic HTML5 elements (h1-h6 for headings, ul/ol for lists, blockquote for quotes, etc.), which is the foundation of accessibility. There's no skip-link, no ARIA landmarks, and no alt-text for images since v1 doesn't include images. For full WCAG compliance, you'll want to add a few elements yourself or run it through a more thorough authoring tool.
