Answer 1

TinyMCE is just a WYSIWYG editor which means that it cannot read or write content to files, but it can interpret html to visual texts. You can exchange html between TinyMCE and you php code then write it as you want into files. You can use some APIS to convert your files content into HTML to read it, these are some links to read write MS Word Content
