Frequently Asked Questions

Are my files uploaded to a server?

Yes. Converting RTF into clean .docx is handled by LibreOffice server-side, so the file is uploaded briefly. It is processed in isolation and deleted as soon as the Word file comes back.

Is it free? Is there a watermark or size limit?

Yes — free, no account, and no watermark on the .docx. Files up to 100 MB each are accepted.
