Convert TMD to DOCM

Understanding tmd and docm file formats

TMD files are document files created by TextMaker, a word processing application that is part of the SoftMaker Office suite. TMD files can contain formatted text, images, tables, and other document elements, similar to Microsoft Word documents.

DOCM files are Microsoft Word Macro-Enabled Document files. They are based on the Office Open XML format and can contain embedded macros written in VBA (Visual Basic for Applications), allowing for automation and advanced document features.

Why convert tmd to docm?

Converting a TMD file to DOCM is useful if you need to work with your document in Microsoft Word and require macro functionality. DOCM files are widely supported and allow for advanced scripting and automation within Word.

How to convert tmd to docm

There is no direct, one-step converter from TMD to DOCM. The recommended approach is to use SoftMaker TextMaker to open the TMD file and then save or export it to a DOCX format, which can then be opened in Microsoft Word and saved as DOCM if macros are needed.

1. Open your TMD file in SoftMaker TextMaker.
2. Go to File → Save As or File → Export.
3. Select Microsoft Word (*.docx) as the output format and save the file.
4. Open the resulting DOCX file in Microsoft Word.
5. If you need to add macros, do so, then go to File → Save As and choose Word Macro-Enabled Document (*.docm).
