About PDF to Word
A PDF is designed to be read, not edited. When you need to change a sentence, reuse a paragraph or fix a typo in a document you no longer have the source for, converting to Word is the way back in.
Your text comes across in reading order, page by page, as a .docx file that opens in Word, Google Docs, Pages and LibreOffice. Very complex layouts may need a little tidying afterwards, and pages that are scans contain no text to extract — we tell you when that happens instead of quietly returning an empty document.
This conversion runs on our servers because it needs more than a browser can offer. Your file is processed in memory and never written to disk.
Frequently asked questions
What format do I get back?
A .docx file that opens in Microsoft Word, Google Docs, Pages and LibreOffice.
Will the layout be identical?
Text and reading order are preserved. Very complex layouts may need small adjustments after conversion.
Can it convert scanned pages?
Scanned pages are images rather than text. Pages with no extractable text are reported so you know what came through.
Does my file get uploaded?
Yes. Unlike most tools here, this conversion needs a server, so your PDF is uploaded over an encrypted connection, converted, and deleted immediately afterwards. It is never stored or looked at.
