Turn DOCX documents into RTF. This conversion runs on our server: after you confirm, the file is uploaded over an encrypted connection, converted and then deleted.

Drop DOCX (Word) files onto the box above, or click it to choose them. ToAny reads the file's contents to detect the type, so a wrong extension does not matter.
Press Convert and confirm the upload. The file is sent to the ToAny conversion server, converted to RTF and removed afterwards.
Save the RTF, or download everything as one ZIP if you converted several files.
Browsers cannot convert DOCX to RTF reliably, so this pair runs on our server. You are asked before anything is sent, and the page says so plainly.
The uploaded file and the result are deleted once the conversion has finished. Nobody looks at them and they are not used for anything else.
No sign-up, no email address and no watermark on the result.
A DOCX can look different on another computer, and not everyone has a word processor. RTF opens in nearly every word processor ever made. DOCX is at home in documents that will be edited again; RTF is the usual choice for basic formatted text that must open anywhere.
DOCX is the format Microsoft Word has saved by default since Office 2007. Inside it is a ZIP archive of XML files describing text, styles and images. Layout can shift between Word, Google Docs and LibreOffice because each lays the text out itself.

DOCX converterRTF carries basic formatting such as bold, fonts and simple tables in a plain-text wrapper that nearly every word processor reads. It does not support modern layout features.
Opens in Word, WordPad, TextEdit, LibreOffice and most word processors

Yes, for this conversion. Browsers cannot convert DOCX to RTF reliably, so after you confirm, the file is uploaded over an encrypted connection to the ToAny conversion server, converted automatically and deleted once the conversion has finished. Most other conversions on ToAny run in your browser and upload nothing.
Text is kept. Formatting carries over only as far as RTF supports it.
Yes. Add as many as you like, convert them together and download each result or all of them as one ZIP.
The steps are the same everywhere because ToAny runs in the web browser: open this page in a current version of Chrome, Edge, Safari or Firefox, add the DOCX file, press Convert and save the RTF. There is nothing to install.
Yes. Files sent to the conversion server are capped in size, and the page tells you when a file is too large to upload.
