DOC is a file extension used for Microsoft Word documents, which are primarily composed of formatted text, images, and other multimedia elements. It was the default file format for Word from 1997 to 2003 before being replaced by the DOCX format with the release of Word 2007. This format allows users to create and edit rich text documents easily.
DOC files use a binary file format that contains a mix of text and control characters defining the document's structure and formatting. This format supports various character encodings and allows for features like macros and tracked changes. Due to its complexity, reverse-engineering DOC files was a challenge until Microsoft published its specification in 2008.
DOC files can store complex formatting, such as tables, graphs, and embedded objects, making them popular for business and academic documents. The format uses a binary structure, which sometimes made it difficult to open with non-Microsoft software. Interestingly, the proprietary nature of DOC files led to the development of open standards like OpenDocument and later DOCX.
