But if you really, really need to read docx, you can try the web

and I opend it with the microsoft web app; this worked for me to extract

More information:
http://office.microsoft.com/en-us/web-apps/

The downside: ?you have to sign up on a microsoft service :(


Can also use libreoffice.  It is in the ports system :)

Without installing anything, Google Docs also opens *.docx files, if
needed. There are other options too, but it depends on what Anton
wants to install* or just view* & extract?

Well.. I don't really want to install anything
just to read docx. So probably something as
small as possible. libreoffice (even if it's in ports,
which I dearly love) looks like a monster of
a package, so I'm not sure.

Maybe an online service? If you don't have too many to convert at one time, and there's nothing secret in them, you could try http://www.doc2pdf.net/ - I've never used it, so caveat clicktor.
