.docx (Word 2007) Files

Hi Victor,
Is there a way to upload Word 2007 (.docx) files? There is a remarkable difference between Word 2003 (.doc) and Word 2007 (.docx) files in size. For example I�ve just prepared a single flashcard sheet with 36 pictures in .docx format and it is only 156 kb. After saving it as a Word 2003 (.doc) file, the size becomes too bigger (1.2 MB) even if I resize and compress all the jpeg images. I think the size issue is the biggest problem for all the contributors in our community. If you can find a solution for this new file format, we�ll be grateful to you.
Thank you very much for all your efforts. |

Hello Manderlay--
I don�t know much about the technical aspect of all this, but please read Victor�s last response regarding this topic:
"WHY NOT .docx DOCUMENTS"
Hope this helps.

Isn�t it possible to download some kind of converter or file viewer for documents that are in docx? |

Thank you brookee.
I�m sorry for opening a new thread without searching :(
Victor is right, many users can�t use .docx file format if they have Office 2003 installed. But Microsoft released a free Compatibility Pack for Office XP and Office 2003 users, people can easily download and install that pack (a single setup file), then they can view or edit .docx, .xlsx, .pptx files without having Office 2007.
