Why Convert PDF to Word?
PDFs are great for sharing and printing, but they're not meant to be edited. When you need to modify the content — fix a typo, update data, or reformat text — converting to Word (.docx) is the fastest solution.
Common Use Cases
- Edit contracts or reports: Extract text from a signed PDF to update terms.
- Repurpose content: Turn a PDF brochure into an editable Word template.
- Extract data: Copy tables and text from scanned documents.
- Combine with other documents: Merge PDF content into a larger Word file.
How to Convert PDF to Word Online

2The tool extracts all text content from the PDF automatically.
3Click Download .docx to save the Word document.
4Open the file in Microsoft Word or Google Docs to edit.
💡 Tip: For best results, use PDFs with selectable text (not scanned images). Image-based PDFs require OCR technology to extract text accurately.
Will Formatting Be Preserved?
Basic text formatting (bold, italic, paragraphs) is generally preserved. Complex layouts with multi-column text, tables, or embedded graphics may need minor manual adjustment after conversion.
FAQ
Is the conversion secure?
Our tool processes your PDF directly in your browser — no file is uploaded to our servers, keeping your document completely private.
What if my PDF was scanned?
Scanned PDFs are essentially images. You'll need an OCR (Optical Character Recognition) tool to extract text from them. Our basic converter works best with digital PDFs.
