Word Open XML Template (DOTX) is the modern template format for Microsoft Word, introduced alongside DOCX in Word 2007. Like DOCX it is a ZIP package of Office Open XML parts, and it stores styles, layouts, fonts, and standard text that new documents inherit. Crucially, DOTX cannot contain macros — that is what separates it from DOTM — which makes it the safer template format to circulate.
How to open a DOTX file?
Double-click the file and Word opens a new untitled document built from the template. To change the template itself, launch Word and open the DOTX through File → Open.
LibreOffice Writer opens DOTX as well, and Google Docs can import one, though some styling may not survive. Placing a DOTX in Word’s Custom Office Templates folder makes it appear on the New screen alongside Microsoft’s built-in designs. You can also convert the file with our DOTX to PDF tool.

A TEXT file is an ordinary plain-text document, the same thing as a .txt file — unformatted characters with no styling, images, or layout attached. Everything the file contains is readable as-is, which is why plain text is used for notes, logs, configuration files, source code, and data exports. The only piece of hidden information is the character encoding, typically UTF-8, which tells software how to turn the stored bytes back into letters.
How to open a TEXT file?
Any text editor will do. Notepad on Windows, TextEdit on macOS, and gedit on Linux all open the file instantly, and so does every web browser.
If the document is very large or contains code, Notepad++ or Visual Studio Code handle it far more comfortably and let you switch encodings when characters display incorrectly. Word processors such as Microsoft Word and LibreOffice Writer can import the text if you want to add formatting. You can also convert the file with our TXT to PDF tool.
