What is a DOCM file?
DOCM is a Microsoft Word document format similar to DOCX but with support for embedded macros. These macros are small programs written in VBA (Visual Basic for Applications) used to automate tasks.
Because DOCM files can execute code, they may pose a security risk if opened from unknown sources. They are mostly used in business environments for repetitive or complex document tasks.
How to open DOCM files
DOCM files are best opened in Microsoft Word, which can run the embedded macros. LibreOffice Writer can open the content but may not execute the macros properly.
Use AnyConv to convert DOCM to PDF or DOCX if macro functionality is not required.
