CSV to DOTM conversion is the process of transforming comma-separated values (CSV) — a plain-text tabular data format — into a DOTM file, which is a Microsoft Word 2007+ document template that can contain formatted content, styles, and macros. This conversion typically maps rows and columns from the CSV into table structures or populated template fields inside a DOTM, enabling reuse of data inside Word templates for mail merge, reporting, or document generation.
