Convert DOC (Word) to ADOC ASCIIDOC

The DOC file extension, standing for "Microsoft Word Document", is a legacy format used by Microsoft Word. Introduced in the early 1980s with Microsoft Word for MS-DOS, it became the standard format for saving documents until the adoption of the DOCX format with Microsoft Word 2007. DOC files encapsulate text, formatting, images, and other document elements, and were pivotal in advancing word processing capabilities, offering extensive features for creating professional and complex documents in both personal and professional contexts. Despite the shift to DOCX, DOC files remain significant for their compatibility with older software versions and extensive archival of legacy documents.

The ADOC file extension stands for AsciiDoc Document, a plain text format used for writing documentation. It is designed to be human-readable and easily convertible to other formats like HTML, PDF, or man pages. AsciiDoc supports structured content, linking, tables, code blocks, and more. It was developed to simplify the creation of high-quality, structured documentation.
