PDF to Word
Convert a PDF to an editable Word (.docx) document for free. Extracts text in reading order with bold and italic formatting preserved, entirely in your browser.
A PDF is easy to read but painful to edit — every change means fighting with a locked layout. PDF to Word extracts your document's text, keeps bold and italic formatting intact, and hands you back a real, freely-editable .docx file, all without uploading anything. Read our guide to converting between Word and PDF for more on when each format makes sense.

Why use PDF to Word?

- Real, editable output. The result is a genuine .docx you can open in Word or any word processor — no locked layout to fight with.
- Private and local. Extraction happens entirely in your browser, so your document is never uploaded to a server.

Common Questions
Will the Word document look exactly like the original PDF?
The text content and basic formatting (bold, italic, paragraphs) are preserved, but exact visual layout — columns, precise positioning, background images — is not. This tool rebuilds your PDF as a normal flowing Word document.
Does this work on scanned PDFs?
No. This tool extracts an existing text layer from the PDF — it does not perform OCR, so scanned or image-only PDFs with no text layer cannot be converted.
Is my file uploaded anywhere?
No. The entire conversion happens in your browser and your file never leaves your device.
