Convert PDB to DOC (Word)

The PDB (Palm Database) file extension for Palm Text Documents was a cornerstone for text data management in Palm OS devices. This format stored plain ASCII text in a compressed form, optimizing memory usage and ensuring efficient data handling. The compression allowed for more data storage on limited memory devices, facilitating seamless synchronization between Palm devices and computers. Palm Text Documents were essential for handling various text-centric tasks on Palm OS platforms.

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.
