Convert Office 97-2003 Documents to Office 2007 Format. Now Free!


Microsoft has introduced a new default file format for Office 2007 that is based on XML. This change causes some compatibility issues with documents saved in the pre-Office 2007 format (that is, .doc, .ppt, .xls). Although Microsoft provides several features and tools to address interoperability between versions, the best way to minimize compatibility issues is to convert old documents to the Office 2007 file format.

Titus Labs Office Document Converter for SharePoint automatically converts Word, Excel, and PowerPoint documents to Office 2007 format when stored in a Microsoft SharePoint Document library. This eliminates the need for users to open each file individually and save the files in the new format, or for administrators to run command-line batch conversion processes. SharePoint users simply add the documents to a SharePoint document library, and the file types are converted automatically. This enables organizations to easily standardize on the Office 2007 file format for all documents that reside in SharePoint.

Titus Labs Office Document Converter for SharePoint can also be used with Titus Labs Document Marking for SharePoint to apply visual markings (headers, footers, and watermarks) on Microsoft Office 2003 documents.
