Using the Antiword program, Media Mover now has its first text converter. Antiword can take Microsoft doc files and convert them to pdf, ps, and txt files, giving site admins the ability to get rid of those pesky MS files- or at least provide alternate formats.
For sites that have a number of doc files already on the site, Media Mover can batch convert these for you. For sites that want all uploaded files to be in the same format, Antiword gives you a good way to have your users files converted.
