Convert DOC to OPF

Understanding DOC and OPF file formats

The DOC file format is a widely used word processing format developed by Microsoft. It is primarily associated with Microsoft Word and is used for creating and editing text documents. DOC files can contain text, images, tables, and other formatting elements, making them versatile for various document types.

The OPF file format, on the other hand, stands for Open Packaging Format. It is a component of the EPUB eBook format and is used to define the structure and metadata of an eBook. OPF files contain information about the eBook's content, such as the title, author, language, and the list of files that make up the eBook.
