Hello Sunmoon.

By 'Doc File', are you referring to Microsoft Word files? The difficulty is, there are different versions of the .doc format, and all except the latest (internally an open XLM format ".docx") are proprietary. However, most versions of Microsoft Word itself can save an .rtf file (rich text file which is man-readable and retains data such as font family, font attributes etc) or a .txt file (which loses all decoration). So if the files are yours, you can instead use a different format.
