Mini Docs opens real Word files, lets you edit, and saves them right back — in a window that loads instantly and weighs almost nothing. No cloud, no sign-in, no nonsense.
Free · Universal build for Apple Silicon & Intel · macOS 10.15+
Everything you expect
Mini Docs leans on a battle-tested DOCX engine, so your formatting survives the round trip — and the app stays small enough to forget it's there.
Drop in a file from Word, Google Docs, or Pages and it just renders. Headings, lists, tables, images, page layout — all preserved.
Writes proper .docx, not a knock-off format. Hand the file to anyone on Word and it opens without a fuss.
Fonts, sizes, bold, italic, alignment, lists, tables, images. Everything you'd expect, nothing you wouldn't.
Read review notes from a Word file, leave your own, and accept or reject what a collaborator sent back.
The File menu remembers the last documents you touched, so you jump back in without hunting through folders.
Hit ⌘P and save straight to PDF through the system print dialog. No extra step, no watermark.
Muscle memory
No relearning. The keys do exactly what they do everywhere else.
