Microsoft Word 2010 Docx
Posted: Tue Jun 13, 2017 2:54 am
Hi,
Will there be support for the earlier version of Microsoft Word's DOCX format specifically 2010?
It's just that we still have a lot of customers still using Microsoft Office 2010, and it's commercially in our best interest to support them. We're also trying to move towards a 64bit architecture and want to dump support for Windows ActiveX and COM which only works if Office is installed on the same machine as our WinForms application, and is the same 32/64bit architecture.
I am aware of going the PDF rendering option, which we may need to implement in the interim, but just want to encourage you to consider supporting 2010 as a lot of small businesses in Australia are still on Microsoft Office 2010, as cloud isn't really a viable option yet with our crummy broadband offerings.
Cheers.
