PDF to Word FAQ
Will the formatting stay the same?
Text, paragraphs, tables, and images are rebuilt in the same positions. Very complex layouts, like magazines with many overlapping columns, may need small touch-ups after converting.
Can I convert a scanned PDF to Word?
A scanned PDF is just a picture of a page, with no real text inside. Run it through PDF OCR first to add a text layer, then convert the result to Word.
Does it work on password protected PDFs?
No. Remove the password first with the Unlock PDF tool, then convert it.
Is my file kept private?
Your PDF is converted on our server and deleted right after. It is never stored or shared.
Why do I need an account?
Conversion runs on our servers, so a free account helps prevent abuse. You get 20 conversions per day at no cost.
