PDF to Word

The text will be complete and correct, with headings and paragraphs intact — but complex layouts (columns, tables, forms, precise spacing) are simplified into flowing text. That's the physics of the format: a PDF stores characters at coordinates, not document structure, so every converter reconstructs. Cloud converters that promise pixel-perfect results run heavyweight commercial engines server-side; this tool trades some layout fidelity for keeping your document on your device.

It's a scan — the pages are photographs of text with no text layer to extract. The tool detects this and tells you. Run the pages through our image to text (OCR) tool first, which reads the actual pixels; then you'll have real text to work with.

Yes — the PDF is parsed and the Word file is built entirely in your browser's memory. Nothing touches a server, which you can verify by loading the page and then disconnecting from the internet: conversion still works. For legal documents, medical records, and contracts, that's the property that matters most.

The output is a standard .docx (Office Open XML), which opens in Word 2007 onward, Google Docs, LibreOffice, Pages, and basically everything from the last fifteen years. Headings are tagged as real heading styles, so Word's navigation pane and table-of-contents features work immediately.
