Convert RAR to ZIP Online

Have a RAR file you need to un-archive? Docx2doc.com now supports rar to zip so you can easily extract the files within a .rar archive.

RAR stands for Roshal Archive, which is a proprietary format that incorporates multi volumes, compression, and has built in functionality to deal with errors in the archive.

If you have an RAR file you can easily use our online converter to un-archive the file and turn it into a zip file. From there you have access to all the files in the archive using standard zip tools or opening it as a folder under different versions of windows.

Enjoy the RAR to ZIP file converter!

Compress files online with zip and gzip

We are expanding our toolbox of file services by allowing you to compress files online. If you need to quickly zip a file online you can do this at  www.docx2doc.com. For those unix users we also allow you to gzip a file online, which will give you the resulting file with a .gz extension.

Using compression you can reduce the file size significantly, sometimes up to 90%. If you have a large file that cannot be e-mailed because it is too big you can try compressing it first which may reduce the size enough to be allowed through various mail services.

Another application for compression is to archive a large file,  allowing you to save space on your computer's hard drive. This is typically used when a large file is unlikely to be used in the near term, such as a backup or if you're operating system is complaining that you are low on disk space.

Share converted files on Facebook, LinkedIn, and Google+

Recently we introduced a new feature which optionally stores converted files on our server for future retrieval. Before we had this feature we displayed and removed files immediately, but now the default storage time is 1 hour. The original file and any temporary files are removed immediately.

The 1 hour default storage gives you a lot of benefits without compromising your privacy. If you would like the file to be deleted right away you can change the storage time to 10 seconds and once that time elapses the file is permanently gone. You can also change the storage time to 1 day, 1 week, or 1 month. This feature allows you to share the link to your file on Facebook, LinkedIn, or Google Plus. Simply click the familiar social networking icons to pass the link to the respective social networking site for sharing with your group, circle, or even in a private message.  You can even post it only to yourself just for reference.

This is a great feature to allow you to easily share your converted files with only the people you specify. Each social networking site has different ways to specify a list or group, so you should use those options to restrict your file. You could even not restrict it and make the converted file public if you wish.

To post a link to a converted file on a social networking site you can start by searching for a file converter.

New WPS to DOC file converter engine

Although the Docx2doc.com web site does not retain documents, we do look at the statistics at the success rate of individual file converters. We had noticed that the WPS to DOC converter did not meet our standards, and we put some effort in to improving this converter.

The WPS file extension refers to Microsoft Works Documents. Microsoft Works is a stripped down version of Microsoft Word, and has it's own file format because it does not contain the full features of MS Word.

We completely changed the converter engine for WPS to DOC, and it has a much better conversion success rate now. We are pleased to present the new

Docx2doc.com Downtime due to Godaddy DOS Attack

Although Docx2doc.com does not use Godaddy to host our web site, we did experience downtime because one service in particular uses the Godaddy service. The DNS (Domain Name Service) for Godaddy was down for hours yesterday making Docx2doc.com inaccessable because the the domain name could not be translated into and IP (Internet Protocol) address.

Your computer tries to find our site IP address when you type in www.docx2doc.com into your browser or click on a link. This service was not working because of the Denial of Services (DOS) attack on Godaddy and users subsequently could not go to our web site.

After several hours of downtime Monday it appears systems are back to normal. We apologize for any inconvenience.
