A pure-JavaScript parser and writer for word processing document formats including DOCX, DOC, and RTF, built from official specifications with a unified JS representation. It emphasizes robustness, cross-format compatibility, and maximal browser support.
Use cases
- parse docx files in javascript
- convert word documents to text in the browser
- read .doc binary files without word installed
- generate docx documents from js
- extract text from rtf files
- process word documents in nodejs
When to choose
- you need to read or write Word document formats in JavaScript without native dependencies
- you need browser-side parsing of DOC/DOCX/RTF files
- you want a unified JS representation across multiple word formats
When to avoid
- you need full-fidelity rendering or editing of complex Word documents
- you need formats beyond DOC/DOCX/RTF
- you need a library under very active development - releases have been infrequent
