Convert UOF to DOC (Word)

The UOF (Uniform Office Document) file extension is used for documents created in the Uniform Office Format, an open standard developed in China for office productivity applications. It supports word processing, presentations, and spreadsheets, using XML formatting. The format was designed to be compatible with various software. The UOF format compresses all document contents in a file container, and while the UOF extension is generic, specific extensions like UOT (text), UOP (presentations), and UOS (spreadsheets) are more commonly used.

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.
