Since 2007, Microsoft began to use a file format docx, which is created by using the Office Open XML. The format is a zip-file containing the text in the form of XML, graphics and other data that can be translated into a sequence of bits using patent-protected binary formats. The older versions of Microsoft word do not support ODT format files and one cannot read them. To overcome this difficulty one can utilize ODT to DOCX converter and read them easily. There are many online converters as well as installable converter software available. To know more about these ODT to DOCX converters one can search Google using “odt to doc converter”, “odt to docx.

Acorn 6 3 3. Hi --
I have many old MS Word files (from 1980s through 1990s) which MS Word can no longer open, but LibreOffice can. Is there a way to batch convert them on a Mac?
I found the following directions for using line commands to batch convert:
But I can't get it to work. Windows 7 and mac os x. For starters, the old Word files don't even have an extension and adding '.doc' doesn't affect it.
I'm totally new to line commands, so please go s-l-o-w. Many thanks!

Please triple think if your idea to batch-convert multiple files from one format to another makes sense. What is the intention for that? Of course, if you use the conversion to make them available for newer MS Office, then maybe it's OK. But if you intend to use LibreOffice, then better keep them as they are, and when you have to work on some specific single file, then open it, and save to native format of LibreOffice, which is ODT for text documents. This will (a) allow you to take advantage of improvements in old files support that may come in a future LO version (e.g., if you happen to need to work with a specific document in a year from now, when you already upgraded LibreOffice), and (b) will not incur double loss when saving to another foreign format.
FYI - deleted my stupid answer.
