File Extension | DOCX |
Full Name | Microsoft Word 2007/2010 Open XML Document Format |
The .docx file type refers to Microsoft word’s most recent file type.

File format conversion is the process of transforming a file from one format (referred to as "DOCX") to another (referred to as "MOBI"). This may be necessary for various reasons. For example, DOCX file may be incompatible with the software or device we want to use to open or edit it. In such cases, converting the file from format DOCX to format MOBI becomes essential.
So, how can we perform DOCX to MOBI file conversion? Fortunately, there are many tools and computer programs available that enable file format conversion. These tools work by reading the data from the file in format DOCX and transforming it into format MOBI. This allows the preservation of the original information contained in the file, even after changing its format. Below you will find a list of DOCX to MOBI converters.
If you have already downloaded one of the converters and installed it on your computer, you can proceed to the appropriate conversion process of DOCX to MOBI. Handling all the programs is usually very intuitive and is based on the same pattern of conduct. We will briefly discuss a few steps that you always need to go through while changing the format of the DOCX file:
