Most of the time it's recruiters who want a docx file so they can fudge certain points and mislead the employer into giving you an interview, for which they undoubtedly get paid commission for.

Just saying. Some people are fine with this. I personally don't trust any recruiter that won't happily accept a PDF or at least tell me why they want the resume changed.
