Word to PDF converter

Convert a Word (.docx) document into a clean, shareable PDF without uploading it anywhere.

Drop your Word document here

or

.docx up to 25 MB

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 document is read inside your browser. We extract its headings, paragraphs, bold and italic text, lists, tables, links and images.

We then lay it out as a new A4 PDF with real, selectable text, using the open-source Noto Sans font so accented letters and symbols such as ₦, ₵ and € display correctly.

It works best for letters, CVs, reports and other text documents. Complex Word features such as text boxes, headers and footers, tracked changes and custom fonts aren't carried over. Old .doc files need to be saved as .docx first.

Private by design

Every calculation runs in your browser. Nothing you type is sent to us or stored.

FAQ

Common questions

Is my document uploaded?

No. The conversion happens entirely on your device, so your document never leaves your computer or phone.

Can I convert .doc files?

Only .docx files are supported. Open an older .doc file in Word, choose 'Save as' and select 'Word Document (.docx)', then convert it here.

Will my formatting be kept?

Headings, bold, italics, lists, tables, links and images are kept. Exact fonts, page margins, headers, footers and text boxes are replaced with a clean standard layout.

Is the text in the PDF selectable?

Yes. The PDF contains real text, so it can be searched, copied and read by screen readers.
