Can I view Word documents without Microsoft Office?

Yes! DocsYogi's Word viewer works completely independently of Microsoft Office. You don't need Word, Office 365, or any Microsoft software installed. The viewer uses open-source technology (Mammoth.js) to render DOCX files directly in your browser, giving you full access to Word documents on any device.

Is it safe to view confidential Word documents?

Absolutely safe. Your Word documents are processed entirely in your browser using client-side JavaScript. Files are never uploaded to our servers, stored in the cloud, or transmitted over the internet. This makes DocsYogi ideal for viewing confidential contracts, proprietary reports, personal resumes, legal documents, and sensitive business files.

What Word file formats are supported?

The viewer supports modern DOCX files (Microsoft Word 2007 and later) and older DOC files (Word 97-2003) with format conversion. Both formats are fully supported with accurate rendering of text, formatting, images, and document structure. Files created in Microsoft Word, Google Docs (exported as DOCX), or other word processors work perfectly.

Will formatting and images be preserved?

Yes, the viewer preserves document formatting including fonts, text styles (bold, italic, underline, strikethrough), colors, headings, paragraphs, lists, tables, and embedded images. Complex layouts, headers, footers, and multi-column text are accurately rendered. While some advanced Word features may have limited support, standard document formatting displays correctly.

What is the maximum file size for Word documents?

You can view Word documents up to 50MB in size. This accommodates large reports, lengthy manuscripts, documents with many images, and complex files. Most typical Word documents (reports, contracts, resumes) are under 5MB and load instantly. Very large documents may take a few seconds to process depending on your device.

Can I edit the Word document?

No, this is a viewer-only tool designed for reading Word documents. You cannot edit, modify, or save changes to the document. This ensures document integrity and security. If you need to edit, download the original file and open it in Microsoft Word, Google Docs, or another word processor.

Does the viewer work on mobile devices?

Yes, the Word viewer is fully responsive and works on smartphones and tablets (iOS, Android). The interface adapts to smaller screens for comfortable mobile reading. Touch gestures like scroll, zoom, and text selection work naturally. View Word documents on the go without mobile apps or subscriptions.

Can I copy text from the document?

Yes, you can select and copy text from the Word document just like in a regular word processor. Click and drag to select text, then copy it to your clipboard (Ctrl+C or Cmd+C). The copied text preserves content while removing formatting, making it easy to extract information, quotes, or data from documents.
