About the PDF to Word

Need to edit text that is stuck in a PDF? The PDF to Word converter pulls the text from each page and saves it as a .docx file you can open in Microsoft Word, Google Docs or WPS Office.

It focuses on getting the text out cleanly. Complex layouts, tables and images are not recreated, and scanned PDFs (which are photos of pages) contain no text to extract.

Frequently asked questions

Why is my Word file empty?

The PDF is probably scanned, meaning each page is an image. Scanned PDFs need OCR, which this tool does not do.

Does it keep tables and images?

No. It extracts the text, page by page. Formatting such as tables, columns and images is not kept.

Is my PDF uploaded anywhere?

No. The conversion happens on your device.
