Is this PDF to Word converter free?

Yes, completely free with no limits on file size or number of conversions. There are no watermarks added to the output file.

Are my PDF files uploaded to a server?

No. All processing happens locally in your browser using JavaScript. Your PDF files never leave your device, making it safe for confidential documents.

Does it preserve formatting from the PDF?

The tool extracts text content and preserves paragraph structure and page breaks. Complex formatting like tables, columns, and images are not carried over — the focus is on accurate text extraction into an editable format.

Can I convert scanned PDFs?

This tool works best with text-based PDFs (where text is selectable). For scanned PDFs (image-based), the text extraction may be limited. Use our Image to Text (OCR) tool first for scanned documents.

The output .docx file can be opened in Microsoft Word, Google Docs, LibreOffice Writer, Apple Pages, and any other application that supports the .docx format.
