Why are my .doc/.docx files not converting?

Attaching .doc or .docx files to a fax does not convert. Why?

This can happen for several reasons. First, you will need to confirm the RightFax server has the appropriate version of Microsoft Office installed (Office 2007 or 2010 is required for .docx conversions). Second, try logging into the server using the dedicated RF service account, which is a domain account with local admin rights on the RightFax server. Verify that you can open MS Office files without the appearance of any pop-ups. If problems persist after verifying these items, then please contact the Help Desk.
