How to convert PDF to Word

  1. Upload the PDF you want to edit in Word. Any text-based PDF works — scans need OCR first.
  2. The tool walks each page, pulls out the text content, and rebuilds a clean .docx using the docx library.
  3. Download the .docx and open it in Microsoft Word, LibreOffice Writer, Google Docs, or any app that reads OOXML.

What carries over, and what does not

Body text, paragraph breaks, and reading order carry across cleanly. Embedded tables and page-floated images in complex multi-column layouts occasionally need a small repositioning pass in Word — that is because PDFs store absolute positions rather than reflowable structure, so every converter infers hierarchy from visual layout. For the documents most people actually convert — reports, letters, resumes, invoices, articles — the output opens in Word ready to edit immediately.

Frequently asked

My PDF is a scan. Will this work?

No — this tool reads the text layer directly. For scans, run the OCR tool first to produce a searchable PDF, then convert that.

Will the fonts match?

Output uses standard Word fonts (Calibri / Arial / Times). Custom PDF fonts are mapped to the closest standard font, because embedding arbitrary fonts into a DOCX in-browser would bloat the output significantly.

Do images come across?

Basic inline images are preserved. Floating images positioned with absolute coordinates may land in a different spot in Word — adjust manually after open.

Is there a page limit?

No hard limit. 200-page PDFs convert in under a minute on mid-range laptops. Very large files may slow your browser tab.

Privacy: Conversion runs entirely in the browser with PDF.js and docx. Your PDF is never uploaded — sensitive documents (contracts, tax papers) stay on your machine.
