Convert PDF to Word for free

This tool reads the text content of your PDF, page by page, and prepares it as an editable document you can download and open in Microsoft Word, Google Docs, or any text editor. It works best on PDFs that were created digitally (from Word, Google Docs, etc.) rather than scanned paper documents.

Tips for the best results

If you specifically need to pull tables or numeric data instead of plain text, try PDF to Excel, which lays extracted content into spreadsheet rows. For more on document interoperability, see Google Docs' file conversion help center.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does PDF to Word preserve formatting like bold and italics?
This tool focuses on accurate text extraction. Complex formatting such as bold, italics, and multi-column layouts may not be fully preserved and might need manual touch-up after download.
Can I convert scanned PDFs to Word?
Scanned PDFs are essentially images, so text extraction won't work well without OCR (optical character recognition). This tool works best with PDFs that contain real, selectable text.
What format does the downloaded file use?
The tool extracts and downloads your content as plain text, which opens cleanly in Word, Google Docs, or any text editor for further formatting.
Is there a file size limit?
There's no artificial limit, but very large PDFs (hundreds of pages) may take longer to process since everything runs in your browser.
