RB to DOTM conversion is the process of transforming an RB eBook file (commonly used by certain reader apps or proprietary ebook platforms) into a DOTM file, which is a Microsoft Word template with macros enabled. This conversion extracts the ebook content (text, images, and basic layout) and repackages it into a DOTM document so users can edit, reuse, or distribute the material inside Word while preserving editable structure and any supported scripting/macros.
