How to use the PDF to Word

  1. Drop a PDF.
  2. Choose editable text, or exact page images.
  3. Download the DOCX and check it against the original.

What to expect

A PDF stores positioned letters, not paragraphs, so every converter has to guess. Editable text rebuilds paragraphs, headings and bullets from the position and size of the text. Columns, tables, images, fonts and exact layout are not kept, so it suits letters, reports and articles better than designed pages.

Exact page images looks identical to the original, but only the page as a whole can be moved: the text cannot be edited.

Scanned PDFs contain no text: use Image to Word (OCR). The file is processed in your browser and is not uploaded to our server.

Frequently asked questions

Will it look exactly like my PDF?
Not in editable mode, which keeps the words but not the layout. Exact page images looks identical but cannot be edited.
It says there is no text. Why?
The PDF is probably a scan. Use Image to Word (OCR), which reads text from page images.
Are my files uploaded?
No. Conversion happens on your device.
