How to Convert PDF to Word
Upload Your PDF
Drag & drop or click to select your PDF. No account required — works in any modern browser on desktop or mobile.
Text Is Extracted Automatically
PDF.js reads each page and extracts all text content. Lines and paragraphs are reconstructed from the PDF's layout data.
Download Your DOCX
Your Word document downloads automatically. Open it in Microsoft Word, Google Docs, or LibreOffice to edit freely.
Why Convert PDF to Word?
PDFs are designed for viewing, not editing. Converting a PDF to a Word document lets you update the content, reformat paragraphs, correct text, or repurpose the material in a new document. This is useful for contracts, reports, academic papers, and any other text-heavy PDF you need to work with.
Unlike server-based converters, this tool runs entirely in your browser. Your PDF is never transmitted over the internet — making it safe to use with confidential documents.
What Is Preserved vs. What Is Not
- Text content
- All readable text is extracted and placed into Word paragraphs.
- Page structure
- Each PDF page starts a new page in the Word document.
- Line breaks
- Lines are reconstructed from the PDF coordinate system.
- Images
- Not included — images embedded in the PDF are not extracted.
- Custom fonts & colours
- Not preserved — output uses Times New Roman 12pt.
- Tables & columns
- Represented as text rows, not as Word table elements.
Common Use Cases
