    "doc" and "docx" are the same file format. Did you try that smart service?

    If your Word documents are stored in the binary file format "Word 97-2003 Document", then that smart service will not work. It only works with the XML based document file formats.

    I suggest to check the app market for plugins.

    What is the issue? Did you make a test with the smart service and it failed?

    Hello all,

    We have the same issue: we cannot convert .doc files to PDF. Did you find a solution?

    Thank you.

    What is the problem... do you receive an error when converting, or the document generated is incorrect?=
