Not tested on a device yet. What that means
antiword in Breadstick
Breadstick runs Debian's own antiword package for ARM64, the build a Debian 13 computer with an ARM processor installs, so antiword should behave as it does on a Linux PC. It is a command line program rather than an app with a window of its own: you run it by typing its command in Breadstick's Terminal, or in any terminal window on the Linux desktop, and it needs no Desktop or Floating session running.
Commands in the package
antiword
Type it in Breadstick's Terminal to start the program.
Text and data tools work on files and pipes in the Terminal as on any Linux system, including files in your Android folders once Device files is granted. More in the docs: The Terminal.
About antiword
From Debian's package description
Antiword is a free MS Word reader.
It converts the binary files from MS Word 2, 6, 7, 97, 2000 and 2003 to text, Postscript, PDF and XML.
Note that it doesn't support the XML-based formats which newer MS Word versions produce by default (.docx).
From Debian's description of the antiword package, under that package's license.
