Only 2 out of 31622 files (0.0063247%) are M$-Word documents and
I suppose that the authors just forgot to convert them to PDF.
a quick look at these three files shows
the following:
- upmendex.doc is a pure ascii file
- ijdc-v9.doc is a latex file, with this as its identification:
\ProvidesClass{ijdc-v9}
[\Version\space Class for submissions to the International Journal of Digital Curation, volume 9 onwards.]
the comments at the top say
%% This is file `idcc.cls',
%% generated with the docstrip utility.
- similarly for idcc.doc:
\ProvidesClass{idcc}
[\Version\space Class for submissions to the International Digital Curation Conference.]
so the first one is documentation,
probably intended for a --help response.
the other two are .cls files. why they
are named *.doc is anyone's guess; i
think an inquiry to the author(s) would
be in order, with a request for regeneration.
the .ins file *does* specify .cls as the
extension.
net information gained from this exploration:
zero word files in the collection. "merely"
a most unfortunate naming coincidence.
