Open Word documents (.docx, .doc, .rtf, .odt) online without Microsoft Word. Free, no sign-up, and the file is processed only in your browser.
Runs in your browser. Your files are never uploaded.
Read Word documents on any device, including Chromebooks, Linux and phones, without installing Microsoft Office.
What is preserved
Headings, paragraphs, lists, tables, images, page breaks and most text formatting of .docx files are rendered. Very complex layouts, uncommon fonts or embedded OLE objects can look different from Microsoft Word.
Privacy
Many “free online Word viewers” upload documents to a conversion server. Here the file stays on your device, which makes it suitable for contracts, CVs and internal documents.
Frequently asked questions

Yes, legacy .doc files are read with a built-in binary parser. Text and basic formatting are shown; complex layouts in old files may be simplified.
