Using Microsoft Word users can create new documents based on existing templates (.dot, .dotx) and save it in any of the available formats, including the standard .doc or .docx files.
This should also be possible with any other word processor that supports MS Word format, but there is always the chance that some Word exclusive formatting can be lost.
DOTX

Templates are generally used to save predefined look and settings of documents for quick creation of documents that have same look. DOTX format is a successor to previously used DOT format. Some other word processors are also able to open dotx files, however they wont probably use most of the Microsoft Word specific formatting.
