Convert LATEX to DOCX (Word)

LaTeX, short for "Lamport TeX", is a typesetting system widely used for producing scientific and mathematical documents due to its powerful handling of formulas and bibliographies. LaTeX files contain plain text formatted with LaTeX markup language, which then gets processed to produce high-quality PDFs. Originating from Donald Knuth's TeX system in the late 1970s, LaTeX was further developed by Leslie Lamport in the 1980s to simplify document preparation. It remains essential in academia and research for creating complex documents with precision and clarity.

The DOCX file extension stands for "Document Open XML", a Microsoft Word Document format introduced in Office 2007. It uses XML and ZIP compression technology to create smaller, more efficient files compared to the older DOC format. DOCX files are widely used for creating, editing, and sharing professional documents, ensuring compatibility across various platforms and devices. This format supports advanced features such as macros, formatting options, and multimedia elements, making it essential for modern document processing in the IT and business sectors. Its history reflects Microsoft's ongoing efforts to enhance document interoperability and efficiency.
