About Word document
DOCX is Microsoft Word’s format. It describes a document by its structure — paragraphs, headings, lists, tables and pictures — and lets Word lay it out, which makes it the right format for anything that will still be edited.
About Plain text
Plain text is the simplest format there is: just the words, with no formatting. It opens everywhere and never goes out of date.
What to expect
Headings, paragraphs, bold and italic text, lists, tables and embedded pictures are carried across. Exact page layout, fonts and columns are not; a scanned PDF has no text to extract.
