Convert

PDF→DOCX

Turn a PDF into an editable Word document. Paragraphs, headings and page breaks are rebuilt from the PDF’s text — on your device, nothing is uploaded.
Works on PDFs with selectable text; the layout is simplified to flowing paragraphs (no images, tables or columns). A scanned PDF has no text to extract — run it through PDF OCR (/tools/pdf-ocr) first.

Why convert PDF to DOCX?

Edit the wording of a PDF in Word, Google Docs or LibreOffice instead of retyping it.

How it works

pdf.js reads the PDF’s text layer in your browser. Lines are joined back into paragraphs, larger text becomes Word headings, and each PDF page ends with a page break. The .docx is written on your device.

Quality notes

Text-based PDFs (exported from Word, a browser or a publishing tool) convert well. The layout is simplified: images, tables and multi-column pages become flowing paragraphs. A scanned PDF has no text layer — run PDF OCR first.

Common use cases

Updating an old contract or CV you only have as a PDF; reusing report text; editing a form letter.

Frequently asked questions

Why do I get an error saying there is no text?+

The PDF is a scan — pictures of pages. Use the PDF OCR tool to add a text layer, then convert the result to Word.

Are images and tables kept?+

No. You get the text as editable paragraphs and headings; images are left out and table cells become lines of text.

Is my file uploaded?+

No. The conversion runs in your browser; the file stays on your device.
