Doc Conversion API is compatible with most programming languages and frameworks, you can find a list of code examples here.
For this PHP example, we’re using a direct URL for our word document (the document we’re converting) for simplicity, you can also upload documents to the service.
We’re going to be using this example:
http://homepages.inf.ed.ac.uk/neilb/TestWordDoc.doc

Download this page / View this page
This code will execute the conversion, and display the Word Doc content as an HTML page.
