Convert HTML to Word (DOCX)

Turn HTML, the markup language of the web, readable by every browser, into Word (DOCX), the Microsoft Word document format used across offices everywhere. FileChanger runs the document conversion in one call, no local tooling to install.

In the browser

Upload a file and download the result, no pipeline required. Open the converter.

One API call

POST the file with from=html and to=docx, get the converted bytes back. Jump to the code.

From an agent

FileChanger ships an MCP server, so agents can run this conversion themselves. See the docs for setup.

Convert HTML to Word (DOCX) in code

The same call from any language: POST the file to /api/convert, the response body is the converted file.

curl -X POST https://filechanger.io/api/convert \
  -H "X-Api-Key: fc_your_api_key_here" \
  -F "file=@input.html" \
  -F "from=html" \
  -F "to=docx" \
  -o output.docx

import requests

with open("input.html", "rb") as f:
    response = requests.post(
        "https://filechanger.io/api/convert",
        headers={"X-Api-Key": "fc_your_api_key_here"},
        files={"file": f},
        data={"from": "html", "to": "docx"},
    )

response.raise_for_status()
with open("output.docx", "wb") as out:
    out.write(response.content)

const formData = new FormData();
formData.append("file", fileInput.files[0]);
formData.append("from", "html");
formData.append("to", "docx");

const response = await fetch("https://filechanger.io/api/convert", {
  method: "POST",
  headers: { "X-Api-Key": "fc_your_api_key_here" },
  body: formData,
});

const output = await response.blob();

About HTML

HTML is the markup language of the web, rendered natively by every browser on every device. It is both a publishing target (turn any document into a web page) and a source format (turn saved pages and web content into editable documents).

About Word (DOCX)

DOCX is Microsoft Word's default document format and the lingua franca of office documents. Businesses, universities, and publishers exchange manuscripts, contracts, and reports in it, and it is often the required submission format even when the author wrote in something else.
