Is my file uploaded when converting ODT to DOCX?

No. The conversion runs entirely in your browser. The file never leaves your device, there is no server to upload to, and the page works offline once loaded.

Is ODT to DOCX conversion free?

Yes, with no account, no watermark and no file limit per day. frogConvert is open source and there is no server cost to recover, because your device does the work.

How large a file can I convert?

Up to 2 GB for a single file, 500 MB total per batch, and 300 files at once. The practical limit is your device's memory, since everything is processed locally.

What to expect

Close enough that most documents round-trip cleanly. Complex frames and OpenOffice-specific styles can shift.

Why convert ODT without uploading

Most online converters take your file, send it to their servers, convert it there and hand back a download link. That means your document sits on someone else's disk, subject to their retention policy and their breaches. It also means you cannot use them offline, and cannot use them at all for anything confidential.

frogConvert does the conversion in the page itself, with Pandoc compiled to WebAssembly. There is no upload step because there is no server. You can disconnect from the network and it still works.

About the formats

ODT

OpenDocument Text, the ISO-standard word processor format used by LibreOffice and OpenOffice. Structurally close enough to DOCX that conversion between the two preserves most formatting. More about ODT files.

DOCX

Microsoft Word's format since 2007, a ZIP archive of XML parts. It carries styles, tracked changes and comments, which is why converting it to anything flatter loses structure rather than just formatting. More about DOCX files.
