To convert SVG to DOC, upload the SVG file, start the conversion and download the result. The picture is placed on the page, and any text that English OCR can read is added below it as editable paragraphs.
Converter.now renders the SVG artwork and places that visual result into the page-oriented DOC structure. This creates a document derivative; it does not infer paragraphs or restore editable source objects. SVG import parses XML into a styled graphics tree of paths, text, viewBox coordinates, transforms, clipping, filters, links, and external resources. The DOC destination uses the constraints of the legacy binary Word model, including older field, drawing, table, and compatibility behavior.
Source material - XML vector artwork made from paths, shapes, paint, text, and optional embedded assets. Rendered deliverable - The legacy binary Microsoft Word document model.

If you want the reasoning behind this SVG to DOC route, the difference between raster and vector images explains why tracing pixels cannot recreate missing geometry.
Used for resolution-independent illustrations.
Designed for editable text documents with styles, headings, and page layout.
Tracing a bitmap produces approximate paths rather than restoring original geometry; fonts and filters may render differently.
Modern layout features, embedded objects, macros, and fonts may shift when the binary document is rebuilt.
the legacy binary Microsoft Word document model is what gets written, labeled as application/msword. Whether that actually opens depends on the receiving application, not on the file extension.
Choose DOC when the SVG image needs a page for review, printing, or document exchange. Keep an image or vector master when the artwork still needs pixel- or path-level editing.
Zoom far in and inspect path smoothness, text, viewBox, clipping, and external references.
