About formats

WMZ is a compressed variant of the Windows Metafile (WMF) format, introduced by Microsoft with Office 2000 in 1999. A WMZ file is simply a WMF file compressed using the gzip algorithm (RFC 1952), reducing the file size for more efficient storage and embedding within Office documents, web pages, and other containers. The underlying WMF format stores vector graphics as a sequence of GDI (Graphics Device Interface) function calls — commands that draw lines, curves, polygons, text, and bitmaps — recorded in a device-independent format that can be replayed at any resolution. WMZ preserves this vector nature: when decompressed, the file produces a standard WMF that renders through the Windows GDI subsystem using the same drawing primitives as on-screen display, ensuring visual fidelity across different output devices and resolutions. WMZ files are commonly found embedded in Microsoft Office documents (Word, Excel, PowerPoint), HTML email messages generated by Outlook, and web content produced by Office's Save as Web Page feature. The format is also used for clip art and template graphics distributed with Office installations. One advantage is space efficiency: gzip compression typically reduces WMF file sizes by 60-80%, meaningful when many small graphics are embedded in a single document or web page. The format's deep integration with the Microsoft Office ecosystem is another practical strength — WMZ graphics render natively in all Office applications without additional software, and can be extracted, decompressed, and converted using tools like LibreOffice, ImageMagick, Inkscape, and standard gzip utilities.

DOC is the binary document format of Microsoft Word), the word processor first released in October 1983 for MS-DOS and later becoming the dominant document creation tool worldwide. The format stores documents as OLE2 compound document files — a binary container with multiple internal streams holding text content, formatting information, embedded objects, macros, and metadata. The text stream uses a complex system of formatting runs, section descriptors, paragraph and character property tables, and style definitions to represent arbitrarily complex document layouts including columns, headers, footnotes, tables, floating images, tracked changes, and mail merge fields. The format evolved substantially through Word versions, with Word 97 establishing the binary structure that remained standard through Word 2003 and created the .doc files most commonly encountered today. One advantage is near-universal compatibility — DOC files can be opened by virtually every word processor and document viewer across all platforms, from Microsoft Office to LibreOffice, Google Docs, and Apple Pages. The format's rich feature support is another strength: DOC handles complex layouts, embedded OLE objects, VBA macros, and revision tracking that power enterprise document workflows. Although Microsoft introduced the XML-based DOCX format with Office 2007, DOC remains heavily present in existing document archives and continues to be produced by organizations maintaining compatibility with older Word installations.
