Google docs makes it easy to collaborate and share but you may find a need to make a copy of your document as a word pdf or other kind of file.
How to download a word document into google docs. One of the most useful aspects of google docs is its compatibility with microsoft word. Open google docs then open the file you want to download. After you ve finished editing your file you can either share it with others or download and export your document back into a microsoft word format by going to file download as and then clicking the microsoft word option. Google then converts your word document into a google docs file. You can create a new google doc just by uploading a word file.
To tell which documents are google docs files and which are still microsoft word documents look at the file extensions google docs files do not have a file extension so if there s a docx or doc suffix after the file name then that file has not been converted to the google docs format which means that it s not the file you edited on. Doing so prompts your google docs file to download onto your computer. Select google docs to convert the word file. If you re not already signed in to your google account sign in now. Depending on your web browser s settings you may need to confirm the download or select a save location before your file will download.
