PDF to Word

Convert a PDF into an editable .docx Word document — paragraphs, headings, bold runs, page breaks, and embedded images are preserved. Runs entirely in your browser.

Best for PDFs with selectable text (not scanned images). For scanned PDFs, use our OCR PDF tool first. Complex layouts (multi-column, text boxes) may shift slightly — manual cleanup in Word may be needed.

How to Use

Drop PDF: Drag your PDF into the drop zone. We accept text-based PDFs (selectable text) and image-only PDFs (will be OCR'd first if needed). Files up to 100 MB are supported.
Choose Conversion Mode: Select 'Editable Text' for standard extraction (preserves paragraphs, headings, lists, basic tables). Choose 'Visual Fidelity' for complex layouts (multi-column, images in specific positions, etc.).
Convert: Click 'Convert to DOCX'. pdfjs-dist extracts the content in your browser, then the docx library assembles a Word file. Most PDFs convert in 5-15 seconds for typical 10-50 page documents.
Edit in Word: Download the .docx file. Open in Microsoft Word, Google Docs, or LibreOffice and edit freely. Formatting matches the original layout best-effort — for heavily designed PDFs, manual touch-up may be needed.

Common Questions

How do I convert a PDF to Word for free?

Open our PDF to Word tool, drop your PDF in, choose 'Editable Text' mode, and click 'Convert'. Within seconds you get a .docx file you can open in Word, Google Docs, or LibreOffice. No upload required, no sign-up, no watermarks, no daily limits.

Will my PDF be uploaded to any server?

No. The conversion runs entirely in your browser using pdfjs-dist (for extraction) and the docx library (for .docx building). Your PDF and resulting Word file stay on your device the entire time. Ideal for confidential contracts, financial reports, and personal documents.

Does it preserve formatting?

For text-based PDFs with standard layouts, we preserve headings, paragraphs, lists, and basic tables. Bold/italic/underline is preserved best-effort. For complex designed PDFs (multi-column, image-heavy, custom typography), fidelity is reduced — for those, our 'Visual Fidelity' mode renders each page as a high-DPI image inside Word.

What about scanned PDFs (image-only)?

Scanned PDFs are first OCR'd via Tesseract.js (built into our pipeline), then the recognized text is wrapped into a .docx file. Accuracy depends on scan quality — clean 300 DPI scans achieve 95%+ text recognition. For best results, use high-resolution scans with clear printed text.

Is the .docx output editable in Microsoft Word?

Yes — we output a standards-compliant .docx file. It opens correctly in Microsoft Word 2007+, Office 365, Google Docs, Apple Pages (with conversion), and LibreOffice Writer. You can edit, add comments, change formatting, and save back to .docx or .pdf.

Can I convert multiple PDFs at once?

Yes — drop several PDFs into the tool. Each is converted separately and you get a ZIP of .docx files. The conversion is sequential to keep your browser responsive on large batches.
