Good to know
- The DOCM file is opened by LibreOffice. Fonts it does not have are replaced, so line and page breaks can differ a little from the program that made the file.
- Macros in the document are not run and are not kept.
- The document is first made into a PDF, then written as XPS, so it keeps the look of the PDF.
Frequently asked questions
Is converting DOCM to XPS free?
Yes. Everyone gets 25 free credits a day, with no account needed. Conversions on our server use one credit per started minute of work, so most cost a single credit. Credits reset at midnight UTC.
Are my DOCM files uploaded anywhere?
This conversion runs on our server, because reading a DOCM file needs LibreOffice, which does not run in a browser. Your file is sent over an encrypted connection, and both it and the result are deleted 72 hours after the conversion. The server has no internet access while it works on your file.
How large can the DOCM file be?
Up to 1 GB per file. This conversion runs on our server, which accepts files up to that size.
Will the XPS look the same as the DOCM?
The pages keep their text, pictures and layout. A DOCM file that uses fonts the converter does not have is shown with similar ones, so lines can break in different places.
Can I convert several DOCM files at once?
Yes. Add as many files as you like; they are converted one after another, and each one gets its own Download button.
Can I choose pages or quality for the XPS?
Yes. Click Options next to the file. Only the settings that make sense for DOCM to XPS are shown, including which pages to convert.
