Using 'TF' parameter to Force Type

It is possible to have DocTo not check the type and simply pass to word. This is designed to allow an older version of DocTo to work with a newer version of Word.
eg.
Lets imagine that in 5 years time Microsoft decides word has to support the GDF (Google Doc Format!) so they add a new type wdFormatGoogleDoc.
wdFormatGoogleDoc = 27;
This doesn't exist in the compiled form of DocTo, so anyone running an older version using
DocTo -f "c:\mydir\myfile.doc" -o "c:\myoutputdir\myfile.gdf" -t wdFormatGoogleDoc
//or
DocTo -f "c:\mydir\myfile.doc" -o "c:\myoutputdir\myfile.gdf" -t 27
would recieve an error
200 : Invalid File Format specified
however if use specify -TF (Force Type)
DocTo -f "c:\mydir\myfile.doc" -o "c:\myoutputdir\myfile.gdf" -tf wdFormatGoogleDoc
//or
DocTo -f "c:\mydir\myfile.doc" -o "c:\myoutputdir\myfile.gdf" -tf 27
You will not recieve an error and the -tf integer value (27) will be passed directly to Word.
