Documents · DOCX
A 10 KB DOCX file, on demand.
Exactly 10,240 bytes of a genuine Office Open XML package with the required content-type and relationship parts, built on your machine the moment you press the button.
10,240 bytes, exactly.
Every byte above the 1,496 bytes structural minimum goes into a binary part declared in [Content_Types].xml, which Word ignores, which is why this file still behaves like one a real user would send.
Unit convention
10 KB on this page means exactly 10,240 bytes, using the binary (MiB) convention some systems label "MB" for short. 1 MB in the strict decimal sense is 1,000,000 bytes; 1 MiB is 1,048,576 bytes — the readout above always shows the exact count either way.
Approximate size equivalents
Roughly 5.7 pages of typed text. These figures compare file size only — the generated file does not contain this text, audio or image content.
Accepted by
PHP default upload_max_filesize, Discord free attachment, AWS API Gateway payload — all publish a limit at or above this size, based on commonly cited figures that can vary by plan and change over time.
Other DOCX sizes
Sizes in this range confirm an endpoint accepts a file at all, and stay small enough to commit as a repository fixture.

Questions.
Is this 10 KB DOCX file valid?
Yes. It is a genuine Office Open XML package with the required content-type and relationship parts. The extra bytes sit in a binary part declared in [Content_Types].xml, which Word ignores, so it opens in Microsoft Word, LibreOffice, Google Docs and python-docx.
Does 10 KB mean 10,240 bytes?
On this page, yes — 10 KB uses the binary (MiB) convention, so the file is exactly 10,240 bytes. 1 MB in the strict decimal sense would be a different, smaller byte count. Upload validators may use either convention, so the exact byte count is always shown to remove any ambiguity.
What is a 10 KB file used for?
Sizes in this range confirm an endpoint accepts a file at all, and stay small enough to commit as a repository fixture. For DOCX specifically, the usual job is testing document upload flows and Office file handlers.
Where is the file downloaded from?
Nowhere. It is assembled in a Web Worker on your own device and handed to the browser as a Blob, so nothing is uploaded, fetched or stored.
