Jessica Posted April 23, 2012 Share Posted April 23, 2012 I was researching this recently and I read that if you put Open Office on your server, you can use it via PHP to open a .doc and read it. My goal was to convert it to a PDF. I ended up not having to do it so I never tried but that's where I'd start.
