Convert PDF to Word, Free and Editable
Turn any PDF into an editable Word document. Layout, fonts, and images carry over
as closely as the original file allows. This page requires JavaScript to run the
converter — please enable it in your browser to use the tool.
What Makes This Converter Different
- Fast Processing: Most documents convert in a matter of seconds, whether you're editing a page or two or a longer report with tables and multiple sections.
- Layout Stays Intact: Tables, bullet points, and image placement are mapped to their Word equivalents, so the document doesn't need to be reformatted after conversion.
- Private by Default: Files are sent over an encrypted connection and removed from our servers once the conversion finishes — nothing is kept or reused.
How It Works
- Upload: Drag and drop your PDF, or browse to select it from your device.
- Conversion: The tool reads the text, fonts, and layout of the file.
- Rebuild: That content is reassembled into a Word-compatible structure, tables included.
- Download: Save the .docx file and open it in Word, Google Docs, or LibreOffice.
Common Ways People Use It
Job seekers use it to turn a PDF resume into an editable Word file so they can tailor it for each application. Students and researchers use it to pull text out of a PDF handout or paper to quote or annotate in a Word document. Small business owners use it to edit a contract or invoice they only have as a PDF, without retyping it from scratch.
