Docx to doc?

you don’t have to pay, you can just re-save the file in 2003 format. click save as and then choose “save in word 2003” format in the list of options.

here’s a visual

thank you! what if I already saved it in 2007 format?

just open the file and re-save it using the same procedure :)

If you dig through the options there is an area to set the default save to .doc, as well as similar options for other office programs. I find that there is no reason to save in any of the new formats and have set all my office programs to save as if they were 2003.
