Why convert DOC to PDF?
Converting DOC to PDF locks in the layout of an old Word document and makes it universally shareable — it looks identical on any device or printer, with no Word required and no risk of the legacy format failing to open.
DOC vs PDF at a glance
DOC is the legacy Word format — a binary file superseded by DOCX in 2007, still floating around from old templates and archives. PDF is the universal document format — fixed layout that opens and prints the same on any device.
