Frequently asked questions
Will the layout stay the same?
No. Only the text and paragraphs are converted. Pictures, tables, columns and fonts are not reproduced.
Why does it say no text was found?
The PDF is probably a scan, which is a picture of a page. It needs OCR software to read the text first.
Is PDF to Word free to use?
Yes. PDF to Word is free, with no sign-up and no usage limits.
Is my data sent to your servers?
No. The work is done in your browser on your own device, so nothing you use here is sent to our servers.
Privacy and safety
PDF to Word runs entirely in your browser. What you enter or choose never leaves your device and nothing is kept after you close the page.
