How to convert Word to PDF

  1. Drop in a .docx file. Older .doc files need to be saved as .docx first (Word → File → Save As → .docx).
  2. Pick a page size — A4 for most of the world, Letter for the US.
  3. Click Convert to PDF. The document is rendered to HTML using docx-preview, captured page-by-page, and written to a PDF by pdf-lib.

What converts well

Straightforward documents — reports, resumes, letters, invoices, class assignments — convert cleanly. Headings, paragraphs, bullet lists, numbered lists, and simple tables round-trip well. Embedded images land where they sit in the source. Footnotes and basic page breaks are preserved.

Where output may drift

Multi-column magazine layouts, complex text boxes, revision tracking, embedded Excel objects, and Equation Editor mathematics involve Office-specific features that encode into Word in proprietary ways — the closer your document stays to standard typesetting (regular paragraphs, standard tables, inline images), the closer the exported PDF will match what you see in Word. For the everyday documents most people convert — reports, letters, resumes, offer letters, invoices — what you wrote in Word is what the PDF shows.

Frequently asked

Are my fonts preserved?

Yes if the fonts ship with the browser (Calibri / Arial / Times / Helvetica / etc.). Custom fonts defined inside the docx are not embedded here — they render using the closest available substitute.

Will the PDF be searchable?

Yes. Text stays as text through the conversion, not flattened into images, so Ctrl+F and copy-paste work in the output.

Can I convert Google Docs files?

Export from Google Docs as .docx first (File → Download → Microsoft Word .docx), then drop here.

What about macros and protected documents?

Macros are ignored — they would not run in a PDF anyway. Password-protected .docx files need to be unlocked in Word first before uploading.

Privacy: Conversion runs in your browser using docx-preview + html2canvas + pdf-lib. Your document never leaves your device — confidential drafts stay on your machine.
