Information about ABW and DOC file formats
| Name | ABW | DOC |
| Full name | AbiWord | DOC - Microsoft Word Binary File Format |
| File extension | .abw | .doc |
| MIME type | application/x-abiword | application/msword |
| Developed by | AbiSource | Microsoft |
| Type of format | AbiWord Document | document file format |
| Description | The ABW file format is the default document format for the AbiWord word processing software and the format is based on XML. The ABW file format allows for advanced document layouts, rich text formatting, lists, tables, images and footnotes. ABW files are similar in nature to Microsoft Word DOC files, however, unlike Microsoft Word files, the AbiWord program can run on almost any computer operating system. | DOC is a filename extension for word processing documents, most commonly in the proprietary Microsoft Word Binary File Format. In Microsoft Word 2007 and later, the binary file format was replaced as the default format by the Office Open XML format, though Microsoft Word can still produce DOC files. |
| Technical details | Binary DOC files often contain more text formatting information (as well as scripts and undo information) than some other document file formats like Rich Text Format and HyperText Markup Language, but are usually less widely compatible. | |
