PDF to Word: questions people ask
Will the Word file look exactly like the PDF?
Text, paragraphs, headings and page breaks are kept, and bold or larger text is detected from the font. Complex layouts such as multi-column magazines, text boxes and exact positioning are simplified into a single flowing document, which is what makes it editable.
Why is my converted document empty?
The PDF is probably a scan, so it contains pictures of text rather than text. Run the pages through the Image to Text (OCR) tool first, or use the PDF to JPG tool and then OCR.
Is my data uploaded when I use the PDF to Word?
No. The PDF to Word runs entirely in your web browser, so your files stay on your device and work even on a slow connection.
Does the PDF to Word work on iPhone, Android and Mac?
Yes. The PDF to Word runs in any modern browser (Safari, Chrome, Edge or Firefox) on iPhone, iPad, Android phones, Mac, Windows and Chromebook. There is no app to install.
Is the PDF to Word free?
