Microsoft Word (DOCX) to XPM conversion is the process of transforming a DOCX document—the modern XML-based Word file format—into an XPM (X PixMap) image file or XPM-based resource format. This conversion rasterizes or exports page content, text and embedded graphics from Word into the XPM image representation so documents can be used in environments that require XPM graphics or single-file image resources.
