In my discipline we only pay if we want the article to be open access. Are there journals that charge $1000 and still put articles behind a paywall?

As far as I know, the big ones charge very high processing fees

"Processing fees"

Ensuring the Docx file shows up right in PDF format.

Well except a lot of the time it's LaTeX, and the journal already makes the authors check their tex files work with the journal's article class.

Depends entirely on the field. None of the (psych/behavior) journals I'm familiar with ask for things besides DOCX.
