What is Microsoft Word

People who have to work a lot in the text editor Microsoft Word have probably noticed that certain Word documents are 20 - 30 KB in size, and the size of some reaches 40 - 50 MB. Such a difference in the weight of the files may be due to both the format of the document itself and the presence of third-party materials in its text: pictures, various kinds of tables, and the like. There is nothing to worry about if a file of this size is stored on a computer in a single copy. But if there are dozens or even hundreds of such documents, then they will simply take up free space on your hard drive.

How Word compression works

When a Word document is too large, the first thing that comes to mind is to compress the images in it. Agree that images in an electronic document always increase the size of a Word file for no reason. The first step you should take when trying to reduce the file size of your image document is to compress the images themselves. Microsoft released the DOCX format in Office 2007, so if you're still using the .doc format, it's time to convert. The newer .docx file type essentially acts like a ZIP file, compressing the contents of the document, so simply converting the .doc file to the .docx format will make your document smaller.
