Hello @Anonymous,

It appears that you are selecting RTF format files. This is Rich Text Format. Word can save in this format if you choose but will not show up in your dialog windows unless you save as this format with the RTF file name extension.

You can also copy paste Word docs into AutoCAD and also straight into the Mtext editor. (This is my preferred method)

Start your MText editor, then copy /paste from Word or use the Import text function.
