SXW to Word Converter

About This Tool

This tool converts SXW to Word by translating OpenOffice document structure into Word's DOCX format while preserving styling, paragraph sequencing, lists, tables, and embedded objects. It operates as a backend conversion engine, suitable for individual authors and teams migrating legacy files. It accepts a single SXW file or a queued batch via the API and outputs a DOCX file along with diagnostic reports.
Conceptually, it decouples presentation from content and uses a mapping layer to align OpenOffice styles to Word equivalents, reflows content, and ensures content integrity across elements. The process yields a faithful reproduction of the original document's structure, with consistent typography and object placement where possible.
Who benefits includes students, researchers, office staff, and anyone migrating archives for editing in Word. Unique value lies in a high-fidelity, auditable mapping, supported by optional font embedding, image handling options, and a structured element map. Typical use cases include archival migrations, team collaboration on legacy documents, and ready-to-edit outputs for reports and submissions.
Core features include file upload, target format selection (DOCX), optional font embedding, image handling preferences, content validation, and downloadable outputs. The tool provides detailed reports that describe mapped elements and unmapped content, enabling efficient remediation when needed. This combination offers faster, consistent conversions with clear traceability for compliance and auditing.
