Your file never leaves your device. The conversion runs entirely in your browser.
Best for text-based documents. Complex layouts, scanned pages and unusual fonts may need tidying afterwards.
How it works
How the conversion works
Your PDF is opened inside your browser using Mozilla's PDF.js, the same engine that powers Firefox's PDF viewer. Nothing is sent to a server.
We read the text on each page, rebuild it into lines and paragraphs, detect headings from larger font sizes and keep each original page on its own page in Word.
The result is a standard .docx file you can edit in Word, Google Docs, Pages or LibreOffice. It works best for text-based PDFs such as letters, contracts and reports. Scanned documents need OCR, and complex layouts may need some tidying.
Private by design
Every calculation runs in your browser. Nothing you type is sent to us or stored.
FAQ
Common questions
Is it safe to convert confidential PDFs?
Yes. The file is processed entirely on your device and never uploaded, so it's suitable for contracts, payslips and other private documents.
Why is my converted document empty?
Your PDF is probably a scanned image rather than real text. Converting scans needs OCR (optical character recognition), which this tool doesn't do.
Will the layout be identical?
Text, headings and paragraphs are preserved, but columns, tables, images and exact positioning may not be. Word documents flow text, while PDFs fix every element in place.
Is there a file size limit?
Files up to 25 MB are supported. Very long documents may take a little longer because the work happens on your own device.
