Convert dot to dotx in JAVA

I have a .dot file using which i will be creating doc file with values replaced.

eg: .dot file having <claimId>

I will replace <claimId> with real claim Id say 1234 and generate a doc file. I am using Apache POI HWPFDocument, when using HWPFDocument i am getting issues when i replace text inside table.

So i tried XWPFDocument i can feed only .dotx files.

I have no issue when using dotx file with XWPFDocument and successfully generated docx files. Now i need to convert .dot files to .dotx files from java. Can someone help me on this...

There is no automated way to do this conversion in Apache POI as far as I know.

You can manually convert .dot files to .dotx by opening the file in Microsoft Word and saving it in the newer format.
