'''WordProcessingML''' or '''Word 2003 XML Document''' is an [[XML]]-based format which was introduced in Microsoft Office 2003 as one of the formats which could be chosen in the "Save As" feature to save Word documents, though not the default format (which was [[DOC]], a proprietary binary format). This is a different format from the [[DOCX]] format introduced in Office 2007, which consists of a [[ZIP]] archive of various files including XML. In contrast, WordProcessingML is a single XML file, uncompressed, and is unable to store all features which can be present in an Word document.

A WordProcessingML file has the following header:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" standalone="yes"?>
<?mso-application progid="Word.Document"?>
<w:wordDocument

w:embeddedObjPresent="no"
w:ocxPresent="no"

(which can vary somewhat depending on what version of Word it is saved from; from Word 2007 it lacks line breaks and uses different namespace URIs: <code>http://schemas.microsoft.com/aml/2001/core</code>, <code>uuid:C2F41010-65B3-11d1-A29F-00AA00C14882</code>, <code>http://schemas.openxmlformats.org/markup-compatibility/2006</code>)

The 2007 versions are still capable of loading and saving WordProcessingML, even if a different XML-based format is the default format. (The "Save As" feature gives you two different XML formats, a "2003" version and an undated one that is based on a 2006 schema.)
