What this does

Word Viewer opens a .docx file in your browser so you can read it without Microsoft Word, Google Docs, or any other app. Formatting, headings, and lists are preserved.

When to use it

  • Quickly previewing a .docx attachment without launching Word
  • Reading documents on a device that doesn't have Word installed (Linux, Chromebook, phone)
  • Sharing a document with someone who doesn't have Word

Frequently asked

Are images shown?

Embedded images render in the preview. Complex layouts (tables, columns, footnotes) may render approximately — the source of truth is still Word.

Can I edit the document here?

Not yet — this is a viewer. Editing .docx in the browser is on the roadmap.
