Convert PSW to DOC (Word)

The PSW file extension stands for Pocket Word Document, a text document created by Pocket Word, a portable word processor developed by Microsoft for Windows Mobile Pocket PC devices. It contains document text, formatting, images, and other data. Due to its limited use and support, PSW files are uncommon, and many modern word processing programs no longer support them. To open a PSW file, users can convert it to a DOC or DOCX format using various software.

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.
