Description🔵 The .doc format is a proprietary document file format used by Microsoft Word, primarily in versions before Word 2007. It is a binary file format for text documents that may contain rich text content, images, tables, graphs, and other elements typical of word processing documents. The .doc format was widely used for creating and sharing documents in business and academic settings. However, it has largely been replaced by the .docx format in more recent versions of Microsoft Word.
Technical details🔵 The `.doc` format, closely associated with Microsoft Word, was a dominant word processing standard prior to the emergence of the `.docx` format in Office 2007. It was a proprietary binary format, meaning its structure was not accessible for third-party software developers. This format contained binary codes for displaying text, images, and formatting within Word documents. It encompassed text, formatting specifications, images, and other components, supporting various text formats. While primarily linked to Word, other processors like OpenOffice also had support for it, although compatibility varied across different Word versions. The `.docx` format, introduced later, is based on Office Open XML, providing greater efficiency through the use of XML and ZIP compression.

Description🔵 At the dawn of fax technology, documents were transmitted across analog telephone lines as audio frequency signals. However, with the rise of digital wireless technology and the internet, sending and receiving faxes can now be done without the need for traditional telephone systems. This is where the importance of Group 3 FAX format comes into play. Group 3 FAX involves compressing TIFF images created from scanning documents. This compression helps significantly reduce file transmission time. While excessive compression beyond the standard 10:1 ratio may lead to a decrease in image quality, users have the option to adjust the balance to their preference while still maintaining the integrity of the transmitted images.
Technical details🔵 Fax machines typically use Group 3 standards set by the International Telecommunication Union (ITU). These machines operate at resolutions of 203 x 98 dpi for standard quality and 203 x 196 dpi for fine quality. They employ encoding techniques like Modified Huffman (MH) or Modified Read (MR) to compress data, which reduces transmission time. Transmission speeds range from 2400 bps to 33600 bps, depending on the phone line quality and the machine capabilities.
Although faxing uses analog signals, digital faxing has become common, converting documents into digital files and sending them over the internet. Despite the rise of digital communication, faxing remains widely used due to its simplicity and the legal acceptance of faxed documents.
