    Convert and download

    Get an editable .docx, built on your device, that opens in Word or Google Docs.

Why convert PDF to Word in your browser?

PDFs you need to edit are often contracts, resumes or reports, the kind of document you should not hand to an online server. Converting locally turns the PDF into an editable Word file while keeping it on your device instead of uploading it.

Frequently asked questions

Is my file uploaded?+

No. The conversion runs entirely in your browser using the PDF text layer and on-device OCR, so your PDF never leaves your device. Every other PDF-to-Word site uploads your file to a server.

Does it work on scanned PDFs?+

Yes. Pages with no text layer are read with on-device OCR (Tesseract). Use the Force OCR option if a whole document is scanned.

How accurate is the layout?+

Text, paragraphs, headings and bold are reconstructed well for typical documents. Complex layouts like multi-column pages and tables may need light cleanup in Word, the same as any converter.

Will the .docx open in Google Docs?+

Yes. The output is a standard .docx that opens in Microsoft Word, Google Docs and LibreOffice.

Does it work offline?+

Yes. After the first visit it keeps working with no connection, because all processing is local.
