When I convert doc files in pdf files I lost my initial doc files.But fortunately myself helped-corrupt text recovery word 2007.It recover my files and I didn't pay money for this program.Besides that utility can use a backup copy and restore all text files from scratch.
In my opinion MS Word good tool,but I know program better-docx file microsoft fix,which recover all data of word files and has free status as far as I know.Moreover program can too fix damaged docx and recover documents of different formats (*.doc, *.docx, *.dot, and *.dotx) as well as *.rtf (rich text files).
