PDF to Word
Turn a PDF into a Word document you can edit: paragraphs instead of single lines, real headings and bullet lists, images where they belong. Scanned pages are read by text recognition.

How it works
Choose a PDF
Drop or tap a PDF. The file stays on your device – nothing is uploaded.
Convert
Text, font sizes and images are read and put back together as paragraphs, headings and lists. Text in columns is read column by column.
Check and save
The preview shows the structure that was found. The .docx file opens in Word, LibreOffice, Google Docs and Pages.
Frequently asked questions
Is my PDF uploaded?+
No. The PDF is read in your browser and rebuilt as a Word document there. Text recognition runs locally too. No server sees the file.
How exact is the layout?+
Kept: text as connected paragraphs, headings (from the font size), bold and italic, bullet lists, indents, centred lines, images and the page size. Not kept: exact positions, text boxes, colours and graphics drawn from lines (some charts, for example).
Does it work with scanned PDFs?+
Yes. Pages without text are read by text recognition (Tesseract, in the browser). This takes a few seconds per page, and the quality depends on the scan. Text recognition does not find bold, italic or images.
What happens to tables?+
Table rows come out as lines with tabs between the columns, not yet as a real Word table. In Word, select the lines and choose “Insert → Table → Convert Text to Table”.
Why does the font look different?+
Fonts embedded in the PDF are not copied. Word uses the same font if it is installed (Arial, Times, Calibri …), otherwise a similar one.
Does it work with password-protected PDFs?+
No. Unlock the PDF with its password first, for example by saving it again in your PDF program.
